      The movie was not as great as the book because most people go by this saying " the book is always better than the movie" and I think it is true for all movies.

                      I bet that this movie would be known very well. First, I was really shocked by this movie by the creativity of the author J.K.Rowling. It really thought, "How can even think about this story!!!" It's not just because it is famous, but it's because really it's great. If you did not see it, you should see it. Some would not really prefer this movie, but at least I really love this movie
