Rating:  - This truly was a let-down.
Was JK embarrassed by this blunder? egad this was truly a dissapointment, and the delusion that it was fine cinema, or five stars is only on the track of it having Potter as a label. Potter fans around the globe would give it accolades even if Freddie Prinze Jr was playing Severus Snape.
A poorly executed screenplay, the CGI was adolescent, in a world now taken over by the mass marketed Transformers and the like, you think they would have called Stan Wintson in for some fun, this was truly a first year at the New York Film Academy type work. The plot was acerebral. Rupert Grint is wooden, plastic and insignificant. There was absolutely no character development from jumpstreet, and equally no suspense.
We are yoked into believing that because it's Harry Potter it's going to be good. I am such a huge fan of the book series, and naturally the books are usually better than the films, but [this] compared to the book, was a true washout. Personally I find Branagh a superb method actor, he played a fine Hamlet and his movies are very thoughtout and distinctive, however the miscast here is evident, as he was unmoving, and commonplace.
In closing the whole package seemed rushed, irrelevant, unbecoming of the worldwide sensation of Rowling's, uh, epics?, and like Augusten's "Running With Scissors", definitely stick to the book.
A two star rubbish.
Rating:  - Chamber of Secrets
Of all the series that are out on DVD this was the last one I needed. It's not my favorite (GOF), but it's amazing compared to the first movie. This series just gets better and better as the story continues.
Rating:  - Never got it...
This is the second time in a row that this DVD was never mailed to me, by two different senders. The first time I was refunded, but I have emailed this user twice and gotten no response.
Rating:  - Wonderful!
Excellent movie. Viewers should read the book first to fully understand the contents of the movie.
Rating: - Harry Potter 2 Chamber of Secrets
This movie too was wonderful. Full of magic, and excitement through and through. These movies are a must see by all ages. I've read all the books and I have been so enjoying the movies. My grand children love them too. Great work to jk rowlings for a job well done. Hate to see the books come to an end, but so worth every penny to read and see movies.
Thanks to jk rowlings for giving us these great treasures to keep and enjoy over and over.
