I like this movie and I thought it was a great way to start things off. I had to realize that it was an adaptation of the book, so there had to be changes in the storyline. I think that there was enough in here for those who hadn't read the books to be interested in and those who are fans to find another reason to like this series. I think Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is a charming and epic film for our time, rivaling that of The Lord of the Rings, and I give it a solid 9/10
