" This is just like magic! "- Lockheart. I love that line. :) I think it's my 2nd favorite.
Harry petted his owl, staring out into the night. In this fantastic movie, a boy who just thinks he is an unlucky orphan soon goes to Hogwarts a school for witches and wizards alike. Of course,as you expect, he gets into a bit of trouble around the beginning. But trouble occurs when Harry learns that someone is trying to steal a magic stone and for a terrible reason as well. So then its up to Harry, Hermione, and Ron to stop them. If you have not seen this wonderful movie, then you have not lived the right way.
SOOO good! Based on the book, "The sorcerer's Stone" by J.K. Rowling, a great author! Very close accuracy with the book, and keeps your eyes peeled the whole time! I would not watch this unless you have read the book, or it spoils everything.

I personally think Harry Potter is awesome! This movie is about a boy named Harry Potter who lives with he’s awful Aunty, uncle, and cousin. One night a wizard named Hagrid comes to his house and tells him that he is also a wizard and how his mother and father were killed by Voldemort and how he survived mysteriously. Then Voldemort no longer had his powers. Hagrid also told Harry about how he was to attend hogwarts, a boarding school for witches and wizards. But when harry goes he finds out that Voldemort is in the School. Hiding. Can Harry find out where he is hiding and survive? While also protecting the whole school? You will have to find out! I would recommend this movie for ages 8+ because some scenes are a little scary.- AmberPuppy🍁 about 7 yearsthe Harry Potter book/movie series are awesome!!! and this movie is a great way to start an amazing, spine-tingling series!!!! it is all about the first year at Hogwarts and how Harry can face it, bullies, friends, mean professors and a stone which has a forbidden mystery in it.
