I love it !!
Harry Potter 1 and 2 movies were the best. Closest to the books and directed by Christopher Columbus. Nothing beats Harry Potter.
Perfect!
Very good
Excellent, thank you.
It was a gift so I am rating for the service not the actual product.
great
OK
Great Thanks.
I loved it
The kids loved ir !
Love thae movies. Since I didn’t have this one I has to purchase it – glad I did well worth the money!
How can you NOT think this movie is good? It’s harry potter for goodness sake.
Okay yes…i know…there are book purists out there that will argue that this movie (or any of the harry potter movies) are no where near the experience you get from the books. Yes. I agree…but that being said…its still an awesome start to a wonderful series. I recommend completely!
Product was shrink-wrapped as advertised. We’ve enjoyed watching it already. It was a Christmas gift. It was the only Potter-series movie that we lacked.
Delivery was excellent; arrived on Christmas Eve as advertised, via UPS.
Harry Potter is and will always be my number one movie series of all time.
That is why I was so happy that the DVDs that I had ordered were in perect condition. Not a scratch or a smudge on them.
Two thumbs up in my book!!!
The book was indeed more indepth than the movie but as with all movie adaptations of books, they only have so much time to cover what’s happening in the book. Still, the movie covered the important parts really well, like how Harry learns he is a wizard and what happened in his past. The characters grew over the course of the story. Sure, Hermione was a smart nosed and all around brat that mnay people disliked initially, but after certain events she becomes more personable, humbled and a valued friend to Harry. Similar to the book, it makes you feel like you’re in a fantasy world with all the visual cinematics and at the same time like you are going back to school. Giving a few scenes in the classrooms with all their professors like the \\”classroom battles\\” with Professor Snape and the stern, motherly but proud teachings of Professor McGonagall. The overall tone is pretty light and kid friendly with limited dark context that isn’t really exposed until the later books and movies. To enunciate this the music is pretty light and upbeat throughout the movie, with some sad scene exceptions (Mirror of Erised), to give it a more warm-hearted feel.
Comedy is also present to give laughs to the audience. Like in the scene after the trio (Harry, Ron, and Hermione) get lost on the third floor and encounter Fluffy. Hermione berates the two boys for their choice to hide there from Filch and states \\”Now if you two don’t mind, I’m going to bed before either of you come up with another clever idea to get us killed or worse, expelled.\\” to which Ron retorts at Harry \\”She needs to sort out her priorities.\\” And then there’s the exciting scenes from the Quidditch training and matches. Nothing like a good game of Quidditch!
Sure, some the actors, like the kids, did seem a little dry or emotionless at times but for a lot of them, it was probably their first shot on camera. You have to give them credit for the bravery it takes to showcase yourself to the entire world ata young age. Not my favorite, but definitely a great start to one of the best movie series ever created. 4 out of 5 stars.
I have purchased the entire collection of Harry Potter. All actors and actresses are top notch. My only upset, when Dumbledore was later replaced by a new actor. I am loyal. This change upset me. I do not know why the change in actor was necessary and I did accept the new actor who was exceptional in every form of his work, however, I personally feel directors should maintain consistency amoung the character stream so prevent viewer memory as this one. This is my only complaint. The change in actor of Dumbledore, even though both actors were exceptional. I simply appreciate consistency when in today’s time, there is so little of it.
Excellent movie and a enjoy the whole series of the movies. When nothing else is on or better to watch, we just watch this. Classic.
Typical Harry Potter fantasy movie…bought it as a gift for a lover of these movies. She liked it…would have preferred the regular edition, but couldn’t go back to it when browsing. Full screen worked well, too.
I love the books, I love the movies! I needed this one to complete my DVD collection and it didn’t dissapoint!
This movie is a classic! I ADORE this movie and am so glad I got it to add to my collection!
This is where the magic began, the first Harry Potter film. This series will never go out of style! I have watched this so many times I can quote it all the way through!
I bought this to finish my HP DVD collection and am very happy with it. I love the book style case and cover. I miss cases like this. There’s really nothing special about the outer cover, it’s just a copy of the movie cover but it’s still really cool. I love all the bonus features that take you into the world of Harry Potter.
100% satisfaction guaranteed!
I ordered this for my sister because it was the one she didn’t have. I enjoy these movies. Very entertaining.
We were very pleased with this purchased. The dvd arrived in great shape and quickly. Just what we wanted.
This item came slower than I expected but was still in new condition like advertised. Very good movie and purchasing it has helped me with the goal of owning all of the Harry Potter movies. Wasn’t much of a fan until now so I have some catching up to do.
Thanks for a great purchase. DVD was a great price and came fast. The DVD had never even been unwrapped. Thanks again. Would purchase from you again!
I liked this movie. It wasn’t nearly as good as the book but, then again, they never are. I thought whoever directed this film did a very good job with picking the actors. Daniel Radcliff did well as Harry Potter. Rupert Grint was OK. He looked the part well enough but he’s not the best. Emma Watson is a fantastic Hermione and played the part better then the picture in my head played it. Dumbledoor was the best Dumbledoor there could have been and the same with Snape. The story was cut short, but it always has to be. All in all, if you’re a Harry Potter fan, you’ll like this movie of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone.
I’m upgrading my VHS collection, but what’s more to say about the Harry Potter movies. They’re great. Story, characters, fx, etc. can’t be beat. A fantasy fans must have.
I have not been able to view the entire movie…There is something wrong with the DVD. It will only play up to chapter 9 and then it stops. I have tried cleaning the machine and DVD and tried playing it in another DVD player and it still does not work>>>I would like to know how the DVD can be replaced by Amazon with one that does work. Sincerely, Lsalmon.
As always, Amazon delivers a high quality product way ahead of the estimated arrival date.
I will always think fondly of this movie because it inspired me to pick up the first Harry Potter book and I’ve been a rabid fan ever since. I’m one of those book before movie people so I had to read the novel in order to go see this movie and I was pleased to see that it was such a faithful adaptation to Rowling’s wonderful tale. This movie did a wonderful job of capturing the wonder and awe of the first HP novel. Hogwarts was an especially lovely effect and when Harry first walks into the Great Hall and all the candles are floating overhead, I felt all the magic I felt when reading those words on the page. I think Columbus and crew captured the essence of the castle and somehow managed to create a visual of something so fantastical. The casting of the movie was also extremely well done. I adore Maggie Smith as McGonagall and Richard Harris captures the mischievous and wise nature of Dumbledore. Perhaps best of all the adult casting is that of Robbie Coltrane as Hagrid. He looks exactly as I pictured the character but, more importantly, he captures Hagrid’s rather childlike nature and the accent is wonderful. Coltrane doesn’t just portray Hagrid, he is Hagrid. I also thought the children were wonderfully cast. Daniel Radcliffe looks like Harry and I fought back tears when his earnest young face first looked into the Mirror of Erised. Rupert Grint looks just as I pictured Ron Weasley and Emma Watson is wonderfully bossy and a fantastic know-it-all as Hermione Granger. The casting of the Phelps brothers as the Weasley twins was absolutely brilliant and I think they were dead on in their interpretation of the lovable scoundrels. Yet in spite of its fantastical nature, this film, like the book, feels as though it is something like our own reality. There are many wonderful things in Harry’s world but it’s not that different from our own. The same prejudices and the same human frailties that exist in our world exist in Harry’s. Though being a wizard is pretty darn cool, it’s not the answer to Harry’s problems and the film makes clear that he has some difficult challenges ahead of him. I think the central theme of this movie is one that is invaluable for both children and adults alike: that love is the most powerful magic that exists. Even with all the wand waving and fantastical creatures, it is love that is Harry’s salvation.
Since finishing Book 7, I have been re-reading Books 1-6, and also watching the movies in the order they were released. Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone is a feast for the eyes, it is beautifully filmed, the special effects are fantastic, and the cast is excellent.
The story centers around young Harry Potter who discovers his destiny as a great wizard and goes off to Hogwarts school of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry Potter is played by the brilliant young actor Daniel Radcliffe who seems perfect for the role, not just in looks, but also in his gestures and mannerisms. His best friends Ron Weasley [Rupert Grint], and Hermione Granger [Emma Watson] are perfectly cast as well, and together, these three young actors make the story of Harry Potter’s exploits come alive.
The rest of the supporting cast is excellent as well – Richard Harris’s Dumbledore reminds me of Gandalf the Grey, he is dignified, and full of wisdom. Maggie Smith delights as the strict Professor Minerva McGonagall, and Alan Rickman truly breathes life into the character of sly, cunning Professor Snape who seems to have a secret agenda of his own. Robbie Coltrane’s gentle giant Hagrid is amazing as well.
The costumes exceed expectations – truly what one might expect of characters playing wiches and wizards, and the creatures such as the centaurs, dragon etc are fun to watch, as are the special effects.
This is a great movie for both kids and adults – a great beginning to the series and truly outstanding in its storytelling skills. The others in the series are amazing in their own right and merit multiple viewings as well.
I loved Harry Potter and Sorcerer’s Stone! It was absolutely wonderful to read as well as to watch. One little thing though: In the movie scene which Professor McGonagall goes to fetch Wood, captain of the Gryffindor Quidditch team, and tells him that she had found him a new seeker, Harry (after seeing him flying through the air, retrieving Neville’s Remembrall that Malfoy threw into the air), the classroon Professor McGonagall enterred was the Defense Against the Dark Arts classroom, according to the book. But in the movie, the teacher was Professor Quirrell. In the book, it was Professor Flitwick teaching. Just thought I’d clear that up. Other than that, great book and great movie.
Oh thank goodness I wasn’t the only one who noticed missing scenes! Like another reviewer, I too saw the ABC Family showing last December (and taped it on my DVR). So when I finally borke down and got the box-set last month, I was shocked that these important scenes were missing! Granted they are in the extra-dvd, but certainly would have been best to keep them in. This was also true for Chamber of Secrets (deleted scenes on extra dvd). Still, as a devoted 40-something fan of all that is HP, I would still recommend the movies (Azcaban is the best in the series of the films). Will be sad when the last book comes out…sigh…
Great movie!! Good price- and I received it much sooner than I expected!
My children and I love all the Harry Potter movies. This is the first magical one and so it is our favorite.
The order was mint and arrived promptly.
Not being a Potterphile, and never having read the books, I approached the film version of this installment purely on its cinematic value. And the filmmakers have created a wonderfully imaginative vision of the world of magic and sorcery. Director Chris Columbus heads the technical crew with amazing special effects, wonderful costumes and scenery and a rousing score by the inimitable John Williams. Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint and Emma Watson are a captivating trio of child actors, and the supporting cast is superb: Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane, the late Richard Harris, Alan Rickman, Julie Walters, etc. While the movie is longish, over two and a half hours, you never lose your interest and it is overall a \\”classic\\” style of film that should appeal to even those of us who aren’t on the Harry Potter bandwagon. As a movie, it’s marvelous.
The film brings to the screen the story of (the very well known by now) Harry Potter, a boy, who discovers that he has significant magic powers. If that wasn’t enough, he soon realizes that there might be more to his existence than he would ever have thought possible…
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is a highly entertaining, action-packed adventure with strong elements of fantasy, not to mention some very witty humor.
Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Tom Felton, Alan Rickman, and the rest of the cast have truly outdone themselves with their performances, which are exceptional to say the least! All the actors, without exceptions, give it their 100% and it really shows (the chemistry is AMAZING)! Very well written and very well presented, the movie is without a doubt one that can be watched over and over again.
The concept, the setting, the special effects, and the music, are all EXCELLENT! Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is guaranteed to provide for an evening’s entertainment. In addition, it is one of those films that gets you and keeps you thinking long after it’s over. In short, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone is a movie definitely worth watching and one to seriously consider adding to your movie collection!
From beginning to end, this movie holds onto our attention. It delights us, it amazes us, and it even frightens us … but as entertainment it satisfies us.
There has been a lot of complaints from Christians that this movie is anti-religious because it glorifies sorcery and black magic. I don’t agree with that at all. In fact, you can see some of the Christ story in Harry Potter … his humble beginnings in a \\”muggle\\” family, his name being known before his arrival on the scene, the great destiny he is to fulfill, his battle with an evil spirit (that pierces him), and so on. Plus, this Harry Potter story has done more to get kids to read than any other one thing has ever before done. And it is fun … Harry Potter is fun.
But this movie’s quality is very high. From the script, to the casting, to the directing and acting and special effects … it gets A+ all around.
I love the imaginative little things that were added here and there to fill out the story … the sorting hat, the shifting staircases, the live paintings and newspaper photos, the cloak of invisibility, the goblins and the bank, and the wand shop and it’s proprietor (which is my favorite) … all of these things are there for us to delight in.
But this is an excellent movie … one that appeals to children and adults alike … a classic tale of good versus evil that is interesting, involving, and most of all … fun.
this movie is great i have it i got it the first day it came out it was a wonderful movie so everyone that is a hp fan then buy this!
I really wish that Warner Brothers would release a ‘directors cut’, which would put back the deleted scenes. Especially since that is what they are showing on network TV. I would definitely purchase an extended version of this movie.
I am a huge Harry Potter fan. i absolutely love Harry Potter and I think it’s one of the best series for all ages. However, some things in this movie just don’t work. Emma Watson’s acting, for one. I know she was like, 10, when she made this movie, but it’s some of the worst acting I’d ever seen. The special effects weren’t great, but Chris Columbus followed the books perfectly, and overall, it wasnt so bad. Especially since it was the first movie and all.
This movie is great-especially when you have read all the books and want more Harry Potter fun! Th cast is wonderful and Alan Rickman is awesome as Professor Snape. But the 2nd disk is difficult to use(that is why I gave this boxed set 4 stars). Once you get to the brick wall before Diagon alley you must find the combination so you can even see the "never before seen footage". I found help here from a review on Amazon so I could actually figure it out! Once you get to the deleted scenes they are fun to see-especially the extended sequence with professor Snape. This is what helped me:
Hit "Diagon Alley" and enter on your remote.
Next is finding the correct bricks.
hit:
left, up, up, enter
up, enter
up, enter
down, down, enter
down, enter
Next you need to go to the bank.
Highlight the sign "Gringotts" and hit the down arrow key on the remote to highlight the key. You will need that for the bank.
Hit right and then enter on the remote. The vault is now open and you can exit.
Next you need school supplies. Highlight "Ollivanders" and enter. This is where you purchase your wand. Eventually you will get the wand upon trying each box. Once you find it, you can leave the store.
Go to the main menu and hit "classrooms" and from the next screen choose "Potions." Then highlight the mortar and pestle and hit enter.
There are three potions you will need to make when asked.
Sleeping Potion: Asphodel and Wormwood
Alternative Name for Aconite: Monkshood and Wolfsbane
Cure for a boil: Snake Fangs and Porcupine Quills
Next you need to get the right key for the door. This is the room with the flying keys. You need to hit:
right, up, up, right, enter
This will have you select the small key with the broken wing.
Next you have to choose the right potion from seven of them.
Choose the yellow bottle (right, right enter).
From that point, you will get to the mirror of Erised and the Sorcerer’s Stone. Highlight the stone and hit enter. Now you can see the hidden clips! There are tons of other hidden things on this disc. You just have to play around with finding the items.
There is also another hidden part on Disc 1.
When you get to the main menu, hit right arrow on the remote to highlight the owl and enter. This gives you your own invitation to go to Hogwarts!
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone was, in my opinion better than the chamber of secrets. I saw the chamber of secrets in the theater but it didn’t seem like it was very good and I hope that if they make a movie for all of the books, they will all be worth watching.
I’m pretty sure most of yyou reading my review will already know the story but I’ll mention it anyway. The story is about a boy named Harry Potter[Daniel Radcliffe] who lives with his evil step-parents, the Dursleys. Untill, one day he gets a letter inviting him to attend Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry since he is a wizard even though he doesn’t know it. The whole story talks about how he finds out about the Sorcerer’s stone which is a stone that can make anyone immortal.
I thought that the movie was good except some parts weren’t in the movie that were in the book, but there were very few. This is not one of the best movies in the world but it is still funto watch at times. I thought that all of the books were good but my only complaint was that sometimes the plot got a little confusing. The only person I recognize from the making of this movie was Chris Columbus. He was the directer of Home Alone which is also a good movie.
The special features include: never before-seen footage, self guided tour of Hogwarts, theatrical trailer and you can perform certain activities. I tried a few of these features but I think they’re more for kids.
If you are a fan of Harry Potter then you should see this movie. I also think that the chamber of secrets is also worth a try.
first things first… ARGHEEAAA!!! Terrible movie!!! How can the name Harry Potter even go on this DVD???? I loves the books… and even tho the movie was pretty true 2 them… they just weren’t interpreted right. I’ll just say this out… all the kid actors were terrible. And if u want 2 see a good fantasy film.. thats also tru 2 the books… watch The Lord of the Rings.
I still don’t know if I like the movie or not.
Though, it’s not really the movie in question, it’s the book. Personally I dislike the first and (to a certain degree) the second books in the series. Some of the lines are a bit cheesy and I -despise- the ending (you broke all the rules, have a trophy!). Ok, yeah, he kinda saved the world, but still- shouldn’t he get some kind of punishment for breaking at least a hundred rules at that school? It suffers from classic ‘happy end’ syndrome.
Now, the 3rd and 4th I really like, and I totally dig the 5th. Maybe that’s because I’m a sick twisted little kid, but that’s ok I guess. <3 for Moody.
Onto the actual movie…Hermione and Ron are great. Harry however isn’t that great of an actor- he cracks maybe 3 facial expressions in the entire movie (*coughcoughkeanureevescoughcough*…i love the matrix though). Virtually the whole rest of the casting is perfect.
I’m really waiting for the rest of the books to be made into movies, as I believe they will hold up to the spirit of the books more. There is only one problem (Which I believe Abarat, if made into a movie, will suffer of as well). If the 5th/4th books are made into movies they will probably be too scary for the lower end of HP’s target audience. I’m talking about the ending of Goblet and just about all of Pheonix. I just hope that they PLEASE don’t try to dumb the books down.
In any case, I don’t know if I like this movie as a movie or not. The effects are severely lacking (ergh, the troll looks SO fake). It sticks to the books well, I guess. I get that ‘oh, jeez’ stomach-turn effect at a few lines, though.
Verdict? It’s a well made movie, for the most part. I’m just not a huge fan of the early books. I just wish Harry’s casting could have been a -tad- better.
