What a boring film review

"Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone" as the opening chapter of the "Harry Potter" series, opened the first generation of magical world, laid a good foundation for the later series of movies, so it has been regarded as a classic in the classics. The content of this film is very rich, mainly centered on Harry’s life experience and the experience of first coming to Hogwarts: the beginning of the story tells about Harry Potter’s life under the fence during his childhood, until he received a letter from Hogwarts and went to school. On the way to meet Ron and Hermione, two lifelong friends, participated in the sorting ceremony, unexpectedly became a seeker while helping Neville, and then won the Quidditch competition, defeated the trolls, and met Voldemort in the Forbidden Forest. , And finally joined hands with Ron Hermione in the basement to defeat Voldemort and protect the Philosopher's Stone... It is hard to imagine that these are all covered in a movie.

I haven't watched the "Harry Potter" series before, because I always think it is too naive for me. After reading it, I still felt it was unexpected: a protagonist who has a golden finger as the chosen person, a little villain who "steals the chicken and loses rice" because of jealousy of the protagonist, a friend of the protagonist who is a little straightforward, and a friend who has always The good guys who are implied as bad guys and didn't reveal their true identities until the end...These guys are everywhere in fantasy and adventure movies. But naive doesn’t mean it’s not good-looking. I’m still deeply attracted by such a magical world. I still can’t help but substitute myself and imagine that I can have such a wonderful adventure; even knowing that Professor Snape must be a good person, Harry Potter. He will definitely defeat Voldemort. Professor Quirrell looks like a bad guy. The naive Hagrid will reveal the secret to tame the three-headed dog. I will also be eagerly waiting for the imaginary plot to appear, holding the protagonist every time he encounters danger. Breathe, take a long sigh of relief for every danger, because what I look forward to is not the plot, but the process, the process that can show the courage of the protagonists, and the process that can convey the belief that "love can conquer everything".

Yes, I think what Harry Potter wants to show many times is not magic, suspense, vengeance, betrayal, or complicated life experience, but the height of love and courage. In retrospect, many plots are very thrilling, such as Ron being chained by vines and a trio playing a live-action wizard chess... These contents are enough to be a proof of "horror" in infinite streaming novels on the Internet, but When we watch "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone", we don’t feel depressed, not only because the trio’s innocent and immature faces can provide a buffer, but also because our focus itself is the friendship and trust between the protagonists. Wisdom and courage. The film will show some warmth after each adventure: the warmth of Hagrid, the miss of Harry for his parents, the friendship of the trio, it is this kind of connection that makes us unconsciously put some in the adult world The unreasonable things here are taken for granted: Harry will not be distorted when he is abused at his aunt’s house. He will not get into trouble when he sees a mirror that reflects his inner desires. He is already very miserable but always so strong. Informed Mal Fu will not be retaliated by the trio. After seeing the trio successfully guarding the Sorcerer's Stone, I was moved with a smile and my touch reached a peak. The pure and clear beams radiated by their childishness shone with innocent joy and longing. This movie conveys love and touch everywhere, love can drive everything, love can conquer everything, love and courage are eternal themes.

I haven't watched the remaining ones yet, and I don't know what Harry Hermione and Ron have experienced afterwards, but in any case, I will not forget the warmth brought to me by the Philosopher's Stone.

"That winter, I met Hogwarts and Harry Potter for the first time, and then I made a wish that time will always have power, memory will never fade, and love will always have depth."

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone quotes

  • Ron: [Harry and Ron arrive late to Transfiguration, relieved that Professor McGonagall isn't there yet] Whew, made it. Can you imagine the look on old McGonagall's face if we were late?

    [the cat sitting at the head of the class suddenly transforms into her]

    Ron: That was bloody brilliant!

    Professor McGonagall: Well, thank you for that assessment, Mr Weasley. Perhaps it would be more useful if I were to transfigure Mr Potter and yourself into a pocket watch? That way, one of you might be on time.

    Harry: We got lost.

    Professor McGonagall: Then perhaps a map? I trust you don't need one to find your seats.

  • Ron: What do they think they're doing, keeping a thing like that locked up in a school?

    Hermione: You don't use your eyes, do you? Didn't you see what it was standing on?

    Ron: I wasn't looking at its feet! I was a bit preoccupied with its heads... or maybe you didn't notice? There were three!
