This movie is totally recommended by me for beginner Harry Potter fans. This movie is all about the start of Harry Potter. He was left of the Dursley's doorstep as an infant with the lightning bolt scar on his forehead. How he got the lightning scar is by Voldemort, or He Who Must Not Be Named. Lily Potter(Harry's mother) provided the never-been-defeated protection ever: love. Lily's love was so strong that Voldemort's killing curse couldn't kill him. It merely left him with the scar. Anyway, Harry grew up as a slave to his uncle, aunt and cousin. He was also thought how his parents died was in a car crash. When Harry got his letter from Hogwarts, Uncle Dursley threw every single letter away. Finally, Hagrid found them at their rickety old shack in the middle of nowhere and gave Harry his note. Hagrid also gave Harry a birthday cake. Then Hagrid told Harry how his parents really died. Harry got all mad at Vernon and Petunia Dursley and shouted that they told Harry his parents died in a car crash. Hagrid got all up in Vernon's face and said, "Lily and James Potter died in a car crash!" Vernon pointed his gun at Hagrid but Hagrid bent it so the gun pointed up at the ceiling and there's where the bullet went! If you want more Harry Potter, watch the best movie ever created and read the books that go along with the movies! I recommend seeing the movies first, then reading the books because the books change some of the materials in the books. THANK YOU FOR READING MY NOVEL-ISH REVIEW AND HARRY POTTER IS THE BEST EVER!!
it is soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo cool!
I decided to watch this movie because I LOVE Harry Potter, and I recommend it! By the way, I think Harry Potter is better than Twilight and the Hunger Games :)
cool
It wasn't the best Harry Potter movie but boy did they outdo themselves! This was elaborate and an amazing start to one of the best series's on earth!
I LOVE HP! Seen ALL the movies, read all the books. SO GOOD!
It bring the magical world that we read about to life perfectly. It doesn't go off the book by one word yet bring the book to life with detail and magic. To make your experience with the series better, read the books first, or else it won't have the same effect. I recommend reading the whole series before watching the movies. It brings more magic.- nikkialmost 10 yearsit looks sooooooooooo good
