Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is a fantasy. Its director is
Chris Columbus. It is the first of the Harry Potter film series.
Daniel Radcliffe is one of the stars in the film.
The film tells the story of Harry Potter. He's a powerful wizard.
He is a student at a school for wizards and learns about himself,
his family, and the bad things happening around him.
The film received a lot of good reviews. People say it's a mustsee for teens. I agree because the story is gripping and the
acting is excellent. The music is also amazing.
Although Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is a little
frightening at times, it is very interesting and full of action. Go
and see it if you can.
