MY MOVIE REVIEW: HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS

avatar

The second one is Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets which is a continuation of the popular movie series Harry Potter that most of us watch. I followed in this movie whereby I watched Harry Potter when he came back to Hogwarts School of witchcraft and Wizardry to study in his second year. However, this time, there is something very weird and dangerous going on at the school. Students are being attacked one by one with a secret room in the school being opened called the Chamber of Secrets. A few weeks ago I watched the movie once more, and I would like to tell you about the emotions which I had during my first viewing of the movie. I will tell what the story is about as well as what I liked and disliked in the movie.

THE PLOT

At the beginning of the movie, Harry Potter was miserable. He is with his uncle, aunt and cousin. They do not behave well to him. They mistreat him and in fact, they chain him in his room a good part of the time. He is not getting any letter from his friends and he also misses his school a lot. and, all of a sudden, there it is, in his room, quite an unusual little fellow. The animal has the name Dobby as indicated in the movie. Dobby is short, comical and very annoying. He informs Harry not to go to school since something evil is about to happen in school.

Although it seems like he comes to the rescue of Harry, he only leads Harry into further trouble. The uncle of Harry gets angry when Harry locks him in the room. This is why I sympathised with Harry. One cannot possibly exist in a home in which nobody worries about him/her.

And then something is interesting that comes about Ron, who is a friend of Harry, flies in with his brothers in a flying car to rescue Harry. It is a part that I liked very much The car zooms to the house and Harry is taken away. With the Weasley house they bring Harry and he feels happy once more. The Weasley family is a very warm family. Soon it comes the time when they have to go to school; hence they all visit the magic market where they purchase their books and materials.

As they shop they encounter a new teacher who goes by the name of Gilderoy Lockhart. This man constantly talks and shows-off. His looks did not please me at the very first glance. He behaves like a hero, yet he is not so much inclined to understand. They also face Draco Malfoy and his father who are always rude.

On the first day of school, Harry and Ron attempt to go through the magic wall to enter the platform of the train station, but it does not help. After waiting, or getting help, they find a way to get into Hogwarts by taking the flying car one more time. A totally nuts excellent film to watch. They land on a huge agitated tree which is called Whomping Willow. yes, that is, fattening, in this tree, they are The vehicle they are traveling in goes after them and ends up with dumping them unconsciously. I was also very scared and at the same time laughing. Once they go to the school, they are punished. and here starts the history of the matter of fact.

A strange thing starts happening very soon after the school starts. And one day they discover the statue of a cat, it is frozen. Writing on the wall: Written on the wall is written: The Chamber of Secrets is the one who opened it because: Blood is written on the wall. and no one knows who tore it open, and what after all is in it It leaves the whole world terror-stricken Others are associated with more people being frozen, students and even ghosts. Harry starts feeling things in the wall that no person can hear.

Due to that reason, people start to regard him as the culprit behind all that. Even teachers are not sure about him I feel bad about Harry since he was only trying to help but now the people avoid him.

Harry, Ron and Hermione are trying to address what is going on. They conduct secret research and communicate with one of the ghosts in the girls' bathroom, called Moaning Myrtle. She is a girl who committed suicide long time ago. Then they find out that there is a magic diary. When Harry writes in it, he visualises the memory of the past. We hear the other voice of a student Tom Riddle in the memory where he says that Hagrid once opened the chamber. However, that proves to be false.

It then gets worse as even Hermione falls victim and becomes stone. This was a heart breaker that was real to me. Hermione is intelligent and she is selfless helping the group. Now she is not able to move, she is not able to talk. However, before the statue was created, she had another valuable clue, the monster that goes after people is a basilisk, a giant snake that kills with its eyes.

Late on, Ron jr., the little sister of Ginny goes missing. Harry and Ron find out that she has been removed into the Chamber of Secrets. They turn to their no good teacher Lockhart to assist them. Lockhart is not courageous at all. He also attempts to escape, after which, he attempts to have Harry forgotten through magic. The magic goes wrong and it works in his disfavor. Harry and Ron make their way back to the secret access to the room that is in the bathroom and Harry goes in.

He goes back to Tom Riddle and back again to the room. However, this time Tom Riddle tells he really is Lord Voldemort when he was a boy. Ginny is lying on the floor and she is nearly in a dead state. Riddle takes out a humongous snake, the basilisk to kill Harry. This was the part of emotions and actions. When Harry dies, he is saved by a kind of bird and magic named Fawkes. The bird is dropped by a sword, which gives Harry the chance to fight the basilisk with it. He does kill the snake, but in the process he becomes wounded. And next he burns the diary with a sharp bit of the snake's tooth. As soon as the diary is taken away, Ginny wakes up and the evil magic ceases.

Harry and the others all go back to school after all this happens. The students who had been frozen are thawed. It means, once more, of pleasures. And all are thrilled that Hermione comes back. Hagrid even gets back when they have sent him to prison. It is a huge party in the school. Something clever is also done by Harry. By or with the help of a sock he manages to get Lucius Malfoy into setting Dobby the house-elf free. Now Dobby Is a free elf and he is very happy. That was my sort of one of my favorite things and things to do. The treatment of Dobby was that of a slave but now he has an opportunity to have his life.

This was a movie that I really liked when I was watching it. I had a good many things to say, and a good many things to laugh about, and to be afraid about, a great deal, and a good many things to be glad about. The performance of the actors was very satisfactory. Harry was courageous, Ron was humorous and Hermione was smart even when she is not present in all or a portion of the narrative. The special effects were quite good, namely, the magic spells, the big snake, and the flying car. The way the story was not too slow and too fast was also something I liked.

It even allowed the mystery to have its own way. I began to guess who was the bad person at some point. I was a little lost when reading the story, but this is fun. I enjoyed the aspect of demonstrating the importance of friendship as provided in the movie. Harry never gave up even when he was alone. He never gave up in a bid to save his school and friends.

There were certain lessons taught by this movie as well. It is revealed that to be a proud or famous person such as Lockhart is not to be a brave person. It demonstrated the idea that little people can do big things, as is the case with Dobby. It demonstrated that you should never stop doing what is right even when you are being regarded as a criminal. I believe that the story of Harry can be used by many young persons, particularly, in Nigeria. Life in school is hard but having friends and courage, anything can be achieved.

CONCLUSION

To sum up, I would say that Harry Potter and the Chamber of the Secrets is a very good film. I loved the plot, the performance, the scenes, and even some of the little jokes. It is a film that is family friendly. It is packed with magic, and the true magic is the way the characters assist each other.

You will enjoy part two, especially when you watch part one. In case you have not seen any movie of Harry Potter movie previously, the first one will attract your attention. This movie gets a score of 9 on a 10 scale. All in all it was done for fun. I am going to watch part three soon and I cannot wait to see what will eventually happen.
