Not having read any Harry Potter at the time,I loved the first one,just as a movie.The others not so much.
Finally got around to listening to an audio book of 'The Deathly Hallows' read by Stephen Fry,and loved it.THEN saw the films. OK as a film and better than most film adaptions.
I seldom expect a Hollywood book adaptation to be even close to the book. From what I have gathered, a great many Harry Potter fans who had read all the books thought the films were just dandy.
Don't encourage them, Padraic. Shell B and I have a long running conflict over Harry Pooper. Just say you hate them, and let's move on.
