After a long summer with the horrid Dursleys, Harry Potter is thwarted in his attempts to board the train to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry to begin his second year.

I can't think of a movie this long that has left me so starved for a movie.

Chamber is chockablock with action (including a far more exciting game of Quidditch) and crafty special effects.

Columbus never quite captures the depth, the rich complexities of Rowling's novels. She's written four Harry Potter books for kids that adults swoon for, too. Columbus has made two Harry Potter movies for kids #8230; and we'll leave it at that. That isn't bad. But I suspect there's something better just around the bend.
