Fantastic adaptation of a fantastic book!

Rating: 10/10 (30 November 2001)

A movie could never *completely* do justice to this wonderful book, but this one comes just about as close as it possibly could! Every character, every prop, every set, is *exactly* as I pictured it while I was reading the book. It literally felt as if the movie had jumped right out of my mind onto the screen. From the moment Harry got on the Hogwarts Express, I just sat there with a big dumb grin on my face! The kids are adorable, and all the acting is superb. A *very* faithful adaptation of the book, and a lot of fun to watch. And with a great soundtrack (of course) by John Williams, how could you go wrong?!
