Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is an AMAZING movie compared to the ones that were made in the 1990's because all the speical affects look SOOOO real! This movie isn't scary but extremely interesting. If you haven't watched or read any Harry Potter movies/books then this is a great book/movie to start on, because when it comes to the other movies and books, you won't understand a thing.- Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's stone is an AMAZING movie compared to the ones that were made in the 1990's because all the speical affects look SOOOO real!

H.P is awesome
This is probably the closest movie/book adaptation I've ever seen, and thank goodness, because there would have been a reign of terror, courtesy of the fangirls, following shortly after. The Harry Potter series is my all-time favorite book series, and I love the movies too, even though they've only been around as long as I have. All i can say to anyone about to watch is, even though the adaptation is close, it isn't perfect. Read the books first! Always.
