Critics Consensus

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone adapts its source material faithfully while condensing the novel's overstuffed narrative into an involving -- and often downright exciting -- big-screen magical caper.

New Yorker

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone is, despite its trickery, that plainest and least surprising of artifacts: the work of art that is exactly the sum of its parts, neither more nor less.

CBR

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone remains a memorable debut for one of the biggest fantasy franchises of all time. Not only does it hold after over 20 years, but this movie is still a benchmark for world building by any standard.

Rated: 8/10

... a painstakingly literal translations of J.K Rowling’s first novel, a near-perfect replica created with a kind of funhouse spectacle of the wonders of the magical world come to life.

...a decent-enough first installment that admittedly does a nice job of establishing Rowling's impressively detailed world and characters...

Better on the big screen, loved being able to see this in theaters for the first time, as I was too young and not yet a fan of the series when it was originally released.

I saw Sorcerer’s Stone with my 2 sons the day it came out in 2001. Today, I saw it again on the big screen with one of my sons (the other son was out of town). It was so fun and nostalgic. The film is, as always, delightful and magical!

It was wonderful to take my daughter to see it in theater like I did many years ago. very nice experience for her. At theater itself I seem the twitters for the sound system were to high. So at some parts it got really loud.

Rated 4 out of 5 stars
