Disappointing - Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Reviews

Overall, I enjoyed this movie. The anticipation of one of today's most popular novels coming to life was overwhelming. The directors did a very accurate job of delivering Rowling's story in the same manner of her rich writing style. It was when I noticed how poorly the special effects were designed that I began to lose faith in the movie. The environmental sets were fairly realistic, but everything else was pretty much bush league. The acting could improve, but hey, these are still early actors with a lot of potential. This movie is worthy of praise but not worship.
