Grossly overrated nonsense

Rating: 2/10 (9 July 2017)

This is a fantasy film, the first in the long-running series of Harry Potter films, and is also known as Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. It is based on the novel of the same name, which is the first in the long-running series of novels.
An orphan lives in Surrey with his aunt, uncle and cousin - all of whom resent him. He goes to live and study at Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry in Scotland.
I cannot understand the massive popularity of this film, or why it spawned so many sequels. It has dull dialogue, stock characters, mediocre acting and a ridiculous plot.
Before I watched it I heard a lot of critics, journalists, filmgoers and people involved in making the film claim that there's a lot in the film for adult viewers to enjoy. I strongly disagree with them and I consider this to be a children's film. I can't see how any adult or teenager can enjoy this nonsense.
I haven't seen any of the sequels and have no intention of doing so.
