enjoyable, but nothing special

Rating: Null/10 (27 November 2001)

This move is quite enjoyable for all ages. The quaint and magical atmosphere with wizards and spells is quite a new experience, although the special effects appear below par generally. Most views involving buildings of the college of magic somewhat look like paintings. For those who have never read the novel, nor are fans of Harry Potter (like me) this is a sort of "above average" movie. I would rate is 6.5 out of 10.
