Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone

The worldwide phenomenon that is Harry Potter arrived in cinemas with this delightful adaptation of JK Rowling’s novel. On Harry Potter’s 11th birthday, the giant Hagrid appears and informs him that his parents died defending him from Lord Voldemort, the most powerful and fearsome wizard the world has ever known. His presence is therefore requested at a wizard school, Hogwarts. In the year that follows Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) learns how to cope with a dark and insidious plot to return Voldemort to his former glory. Along the way he makes new friends, Ron and Hermione, but also falls foul of bad-tempered Professor Severus Snape. Director Chris Columbus ably translates all the magic of Rowling’s novel on to the screen. An unmissable treat featuring such stellar talents as Richard Harris, Maggie Smith, Robbie Coltrane and Alan Rickman.
