      If you're gonna watch this movie, you should read the series first. The series are really good! Anyways, Harry spends his first year at Hogwarts. He is an instant celebrity. Everyone knows his name but I won't say why.

            The Dursleys lived very normally while Petunia Dursley tried to disown her sister, Lily Potter because she was a "freak" for being a wizard.

            I freaked out when I first saw it (because of the Voldemort part) but saw it a second time and realized it wasn't as scary as I thought.
