Review: Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is a rigorously faithful adaptation of the novel. Harry Potter's most apparent antecedents are J.R.R. Tolkien's The Hobbit (which is written in a much lighter style than The Lord of the Rings), C.S. Lewis' The Chronicles of Narnia, and Lloyd Alexander's The Chronicles of Prydain. Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is unquestionably a member of the fantasy genre. movie-reviews.colossus.net /movies/h/harry_potter1.html   (1329 words)

Reviews - Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone Based on the first of J.K. Rowling's popular children's novels about Harry Potter, the live action family adventure film 'Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone' tells the story of a boy who learns on his 11th birthday that he is the orphaned son of two powerful wizards and possesses unique magical powers of his own. Harry's relatives have just as reluctantly learned to live with the unwelcome presence of their orphaned relation, a constant reminder of Petunia's "wayward" sister and brother-in-law and their mysterious and untimely demise. Daniel Radcliffe is perfect as Harry, and whirls along grinning from ear to ear as his chracter is bumped along from scene to scene, and predicament to predicament, until the suitably climactic ending. www.unreel.co.uk /reviews/h/Harry_Potter_1/index.cfm   (750 words)

Essay or Coursework - How Successful Was the Marketing Campaign of Harry Potter and the Philosphers Stone? Harry Potter is flying into a building on a broomstick conveying the effect of the fantasy genre. The characters are dressed in black associating with the typical signature colours of magic the wizard school he goes to is in the background; the fact that Harry Potter is situated in the front of all the other characters suggests that he is a key character. Harry Potter has used predominantly the use of adverts to advertise the film. www.coursework.info /i/24241.html   (803 words)

harry potter and the philosophers stone review by Jim Eadon I like all the harry potter movies they are way better than boring books they on quite a long time tho but am not bothered they are excellent it is great special effects in all 4 herry potter movies if u aint seen them see them. What annoys me is that it has completely misrepresented the Harry Potter cult when those who've seen the film but thought better than bothering with the book think that they have a right to comment on the book. However, I do not actually recommend reading the book because the whole Harry Potter thing is tired now. www.eadon.com /movies/harrypottertpstb.php   (183 words)

BBC NEWS Entertainment Arts Potter fans may be kept waiting There was no new book in 2001 but there was the blockbuster film, Harry Potter and the Philosophers' Stone.

The hotly-anticipated new Harry Potter novel may not be published until 2003, disappointing thousands of fans waiting for the latest adventure of the young wizard. news.bbc.co.uk /hi/english/entertainment/arts/newsid_1977000/1977856.stm   (388 words)

Movie-Vault.com :: Over 2000 Reviews and Counting... Despite the strong performance of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) and friends Rupert Grint (Ronald 'Ron' Weasley) and Emma Watson(Hermione Granger), the fact the film is aimed at children creates a distinct lack of emotional involvement we are used to in some of the better pieces of recent cinema. Harry's encounter with the snake at the beginning of the movie sums up the emotional level the film is aimed at. With no strong and outward villain for most of the film the pace and motivation of the story surprisingly held together quite well and is nothing but a huge testament to the abilities of the books author J.K. Rowling. www.movie-vault.com /reviews/JoQrzQgefSlIKxTT   (542 words)

Harry Potter And The Philosophers Stone Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone hits cinemas around the UK on 16th November. Indeed, there's little to complain about here; the pre-Hogwarts section is slow due to the amount of plot exposition but it was in the book, and while the lighting and edits between scenes could have been sharper and more dynamic the design of the film is perfect. For the precious few who haven't read the first of the proposed seven books, the story is as follows: orphaned by an attack on his wizard parents when he was only a baby, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) is left on the doorstep of his nearest relatives, the Dursleys. www.beat106.com /article.asp?id=6686   (586 words)
