Harry Potter and Sorcerer's Stone (Special Edition/2 Disc/BD)

Loved the books I read when the last was just published some 11 years ago. I saw these movies as they came out in theaters and enjoyed then. But I didn't totally fall in love until I re-watched this with my now 8 year old son. Seeing it in his eyes, fielding his questions, seeing his joy and excitement and what he learned about people as he watched I saw this movie as the gem it truly is for the first time. An easy plot for him, intelligent as he is he is still a child and he even had insights I never considered. I cannot wait to start reading the books with him once we finish the Jungle Book. Harry is a well written child hero overcoming loneliness and sadness of an orphan raised by a cruel aunt and uncle and their equally cruel and spoiled son. Yes it exaggerates but that helps children understand. And it gave me an opportunity to teach my son that people do many hateful things out if jealousy and fear and yet she must have loved her sister because she didn't completely abandon her child. We get to discuss how power corrupts and it takes a strong and moral individual to wield power with compassion and humility. We see the power of friendship and the love of a created family in those we choose to keep around us. And it keeps his interest with fast pace, silly antics, animal friends, magic and mythology made real and of course a triumphant game in the middle. Spoilers.............. The casting was perfect and Harris is by far my favorite Dumbledore. May he rest in peace he was a phenomenal actor and brought gravity and a sense of power and wisdom I didn't feel as much with his replacement. Now we have lost Rickman too and it was a heavy heart I had watching him an his marvelous portrayal of Snape. A true hero disguised as enemy. The children were delightful and now as a parent I see them in another light. My son being much like Hermione. Fearless, bookish, brilliant and often bossy but with an empathy few can match. As a writer I have new and growing respect for Rowling and thank her for sharing her world with us. Yes, while much of it reminded me of the Hogfather it went to places that never did and the journey is incredible in the books and the films are masterpieces that prove they can follow the books with respect and honor and yet create something brilliant and new.

Love the Harry Potter movies! Thrilling, mind provoking and a great storyline.

If u like this kind of shows, this one is the BEST

Great movie. Great visuals. I have always been a big fan of any movies with dragons, castles, magic and the supernatural. And the Sorcerer's Stone gives all of that. The movie itself is in 4k ultra hd with the other 2 disks in bluray. All 3 plays great with no skipping. And watching all 3 on my 4k tv and 4k player is awesome.

Fantastic. Just like all these Harry Potter movies

I watch this once a year. And when the grandsons are over, they watch it with me. Who doesn’t love Harry Potter? He seems to always be fighting something or someone, and his friends are always there to help and support him. He also has supporters in his educators and adults, but then there are the foes. I loved the books and I love the movies. Highly recommend.

Ok

Good movie

Chegou com a case quebrada e capa amassada

Soy fan de Harry Potter, y cuando supe que Warner Brothers había restaurado "La Piedra Filosofal" en formato 4K Ultra HD, la compré de inmediato. Se ve espectacular, mejor que nunca, además llegó rápido y en perfectas condiciones. El único inconveniente es que no trae Slipcover y eso es algo muy importante para mí como coleccionista.

Bought this as a gift and they were delighted with it.

Good viewing

Big Harry Potter fan enjoyed the film
