This first film in the Harry Potter series is filled with visual splendor, valiant heroes, spectacular special effects, and irresistible characters. He also learns some important lessons about loyalty and courage. Throughout the year, Harry adjusts to his magical life and begins to come to grips with his famous status in the wizarding world and what he represents to the darker forces there. When school begins, things really get exciting, with classes in Potions and Defense Against the Dark Arts, a sport called Quidditch (a sort of flying soccer/basketball), a mysterious trap door guarded by a three-headed dog named Fluffy, and a baby dragon named Norbert. On the train to Hogwarts, Harry meets his future best friends, Ron Weasley ( Rupert Grint) and Hermione Granger ( Emma Watson). It turns out that the letters were coming from Hogwarts, a boarding school for young witches and wizards, and Harry is expected for the fall term, so Hagrid whisks him off to begin his new life as a wizard in training. But they're found by Hagrid ( Robbie Coltrane), a huge, bearded man with a weakness for scary-looking creatures. Letters keep coming, and the Dursleys panic and hide away on a remote island.

On his 11th birthday, Harry receives a mysterious letter, but his uncle destroys it before he can read it. When HARRY POTTER AND THE SORCERER'S STONE begins, Harry ( Daniel Radcliffe) is an orphan who lives with the awful Dursleys, his aunt, uncle, and cousin.
