Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone |
Harry lives the first ten years of his life,
unhappily, with his Uncle Vernon and Aunt Petunia unaware that his parents
had been a wizard and a witch. When he is invited to study at Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry he discovers that there are two worlds:
that of the Muggles where he grew up and the magic and fantasy world where
he is destined to live.....
Review
To try and please all the fans of JK Rowling's novel
was a challenge that the makers of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's
Stone met head on. The result of their efforts is one of the most
lavish, beautiful and magical cinematic treats to hit our screens in
years. Director Chris Columbus and screenwriter Steven Kloves (thankfully
with the help of Rowling herself) prove that although you can't translate
everybody's reading of this much-loved book onto the cinema screen - maybe
Fluffy was a bit more Fluffy in your imagination or Hagrid (superbly
played by Robbie Coltrane) a little more giant-like - it is nevertheless
possible to transfer Harry's adventures with fidelity as well as superb
energy and excitement.
