Review of Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone (2001) by Hasriona — 19 Jul 2011
A charming, sweet and colourful film. The acting among the young is iffy, and the effects are rather poor, but the emotion and the very faithful plot quickly pull you in. The sets are one of the key delights of this film.
Everything is beautifully decorated and lavishly coloured to make it absolutely awe-inspiring. Together with the rich cinematography, it really brings the magic to life. The music also adds to the magic and the wonder, and follows the emotion closely.
This can make it slightly boring, as there is nothing really converse about how it flows, but it adds something really satisfying and real to the film.
