| | calendarlive.com: 'Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets' |
 | | "Chamber of Secrets" displays such zeal for re-creating the book's more grotesque aspects, from man-eating spiders to venom-dripping monster serpents, that it is sure to rattle the cages of the smallest viewers, sending them under their seats if not out of the theater. |
 | | The darkness that invades "Chamber of Secrets" underlines how well the books managed to exactly balance good and evil, dark and light, so that within their pages you seemed to be experiencing both at the same time. |
 | | The most memorable moments in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" involve not some expensive special effect but the unplanned poignancy of Richard Harris' performance, the last of his long career, as headmaster Albus Dumbledore. |
