Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Full Screen Edition)

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (Full Screen Edition)

The next installment in the Harry Potter series finds young wizard Harry Potter (DANIEL RADCLIFFE) and his friends Ron Weasley (RUPERT GRINT) and Hermione Granger (EMMA WATSON) facing new challenges during their second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry as they try to uncover a dark force that is terrorizing the school.First sequels are the true test of an enduring movie franchise, and Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets passes with flying colors. Expanding upon the lavish sets, special effects, and grand adventure of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, Harry’s second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry involves a darker, more malevolent tale (parents with younger children beware), beginning with the petrified bodies of several Hogwarts students and magical clues leading Harry (Daniel Radcliffe), Ron (Rupert Grint), and Hermione (Emma Watson) to a 50-year-old mystery in the monster-laden Chamber of Secrets. House elves, squealing mandrakes, giant spiders, and venomous serpents populate this loyal adaptation (by Sorcerer’s Stone director Chris Columbus and screenwriter Steve Kloves), and Kenneth Branagh delightfully tops the supreme supporting cast as the vainglorious charlatan Gilderoy Lockhart (be sure to view past the credits for a visual punchline at Lockhart’s expense). At 161 minutes, the film suffers from lack of depth and uneven pacing, and John Williams’ score mostly reprises established themes. The young, fast-growing cast offers ample compensation, however, as does the late Richard Harris in his final screen appearance as Professor Albus Dumbledore. Brimming with cleverness, wonderment, and big-budget splendor, Chamber honors the legacy of J.K. Rowling’s novels. –Jeff Shannon

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Full Screen Edition) (Harry Potter 4)

When Harry Potter’s name emerges from the Goblet of Fire, he becomes a competitor in a grueling battle for glory among three wizarding schools – the Triwizard Tournament. But since Harry never submitted his name for the Tournament, who did? Now Harry must confront a deadly dragon, fierce water demons and an enchanted maze only to find himself in the cruel grasp of He Who Must Not Be Named. In this fourth film adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter series, everything changes as Harry, Ron and Hermione leave childhood forever and take on challenges greater than anything they could have imagined.The latest entry in the Harry Potter saga could be retitled Fast Times at Hogwarts, where finding a date to the winter ball is nearly as terrifying as worrying about Lord Voldemort’s return. Thus, the young wizards’ entry into puberty (and discovery of the opposite sex) opens up a rich mining field to balance out the dark content in the fourth movie (and the stories are only going to get darker). Mike Newell (Four Weddings and a Funeral) handily takes the directing reins and eases his young cast through awkward growth spurts into true young actors. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe, more sure of himself) has his first girl crush on fellow student Cho Chang (Katie Leung), and has his first big fight with best bud Ron (Rupert Grint). Meanwhile, Ron’s underlying romantic tension with Hermione (Emma Watson) comes to a head over the winter ball, and when she makes one of those girl-into-woman Cinderella entrances, the boys’ reactions indicate they’ve all crossed a threshold.

But don’t worry, there’s plenty of wizardry and action in Goblet of Fire. When the deadly Triwizard Tournament is hosted by Hogwarts, Harry finds his name mysteriously submitted (and chosen) to compete against wizards from two neighboring academies, as well as another Hogwarts student. The competition scenes are magnificently shot, with much-improved CGI effects (particularly the underwater challenge). And the climactic confrontation with Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes, in a brilliant bit of casting) is the most thrilling yet. Goblet, the first installment to get a PG-13 rating, contains some violence as well as disturbing images for kids and some barely shrouded references at sexual awakening (Harry’s bath scene in particular). The 2 1/2-hour film, lean considering it came from a 734-page book, trims out subplots about house-elves (they’re not missed) and gives little screen time to the standard crew of the other Potter films, but adds in more of Britain’s finest actors to the cast, such as Brendan Gleeson as Mad-Eye Moody and Miranda Richardson as Rita Skeeter. Michael Gambon, in his second round as Professor Dumbledore, still hasn’t brought audiences around to his interpretation of the role he took over after Richard Harris died, but it’s a small smudge in an otherwise spotless adaptation. –Ellen A.

They also visit the wizarding village of Hogsmeade and the Shrieking Shack, which is considered the most haunted building in Britain. In addition to these new experiences, Harry must overcome the threats of the soul-sucking Dementors, outsmart a dangerous werewolf and finally deal with the truth about Sirius Black and his relationship to Harry and his parents. With his best friends, Harry masters advanced magic, crosses the barriers of time and changes the course of more than one life. Directed by Alfonso Cuaron and based on J.K.

Some movie-loving wizards must have cast a magic spell on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it’s another grand slam for the Harry Potter franchise. Demonstrating remarkable versatility after the arthouse success of Y Tu Mamá También, director Alfonso Cuarón proves a perfect choice to guide Harry, Hermione, and Ron into treacherous puberty as the now 13-year-old students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face a new and daunting challenge: Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) has escaped from Azkaban prison, and for reasons yet unknown (unless, of course, you’ve read J.K. Rowling’s book, considered by many to be the best in the series), he’s after Harry in a bid for revenge. This dark and dangerous mystery drives the action while Harry (the fast-growing Daniel Radcliffe) and his third-year Hogwarts classmates discover the flying hippogriff Buckbeak (a marvelous CGI creature), the benevolent but enigmatic Professor Lupin (David Thewlis), horrifying black-robed Dementors, sneaky Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall), and the wonderful advantage of having a Time-Turner just when you need one. The familiar Hogwarts staff returns in fine form (including the delightful Michael Gambon, replacing the late Richard Harris as Dumbledore, and Emma Thompson as the goggle-eyed Sybil Trelawney), and even Julie Christie joins this prestigious production for a brief but welcome cameo. Technically dazzling, fast-paced, and chock-full of Rowling’s boundless imagination (loyally adapted by ace screenwriter Steve Kloves), The Prisoner of Azkaban is a Potter-movie classic. –Jeff Shannon

Even as the decisive showdown looms, flowers of romance for Harry, Ron, Hermione and their classmates. Love is in the air, but the danger lies ahead and Hogwarts May never be the same.

Amazon. comThe sixth installment of the Harry Potter series starts right where the Order of the Phoenix left. The wizarding world is rocked by the news that “he who can not be named has really returned, and the public finally knows that Harry is” the Chosen One “- the only magician who can defeat Lord Voldemort in the end. The dark forces loom around every corner, and now regularly attempt to penetrate the walls are protected from the school of Hogwarts. This is more fun and fascinating world of magic of the first books that some of it is dark, dangerous and frightening. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) suspects Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton) to be a new recruit Death Eater on a special mission for the Dark Lord. Meanwhile, Professor Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) seems to have finally lifted the veil of secrecy about Harry the dark path ahead of us, and gives private lessons instead to get prepared. In these scenes intriguing that the dark past of Tom Riddle (aka Voldemort) is finally revealed. The actors often cast as the young versions of Riddle (Hero Fiennes-Tiffin and Frank Dillane) do a fantastic job of portraying the strangely wicked as a child. While previous films many new characters could be a bit overwhelming, one key character is introduced this time: Professor Horace Slughorn (with a spot on performance by Jim Broadbent). Inside his mind, he holds a secret key in the battle to defeat the Dark Lord, and Harry is instructed by Dumbledore to find a memory about weapons darkest Voldemort – the Horcrux. Despite the long list of distractions, Harry, Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson) are still trying to focus on adolescents to be, and the public will appreciate the budding romances awkward. All players have developed well, giving their most convincing performance so far. More important things and more meaningful to go into this film than any of his predecessors, and the stakes are higher than ever. The designers were tasked with a challenge almost impossible, that fans of the series beloved JK Rowling book desperately want the movies to capture the magic of books as closely as possible. Alas, the point where we accept that these two mediums are very different is the point where we can really enjoy these brilliant adaptations. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is no exception: it may be the best movie yet. For those who have not read the book, nail biting entertainment is assured. For those who have the film that does justice. The key dramatic scenes, including the cave and the shocking twist in the last chapter, are executed very well. It does a perfect job of setting up of two parts grand finale that follows. – Jordan Thompson
