Here’s an event movie that holds up to being an event. This filmed version of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone, adapted from the wildly popular book by J.K. Rowling, stunningly brings to life Harry Potter’s world of Hogwarts, the school for young witches and wizards. The greatest strength of the film comes from its faithfulness to the novel, and this new cinematic world is filled with all the details of Rowling’s imagination, thanks to exuberant sets, elaborate costumes, clever makeup and visual effects, and a crème de la crème cast, including Maggie Smith, Richard Harris, Alan Rickman, and more. Especially fine is the interplay between Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) and his schoolmates Ron (Rupert Grint) and Hermione (Emma Watson), as well as his protector, the looming Hagrid (Robbie Coltrane).

Just use amazon.co.uk,
amazon.co.uk has the three different HP movies 1-8 sets
just go to the site and type in “harry potter 1-8”
ALLL BLU RAY CUSTOMERS can order, as these are region free and with HD media, there is no such thing as PAL encoding.
“Harry Potter – The Complete 8-Film Collection [Blu-ray] [2011][Region Free]”
and “Harry Potter: The Complete 1-8 Film Collection – Limited Numbered Edition (Blu-ray + DVD) [2011][Region Free]”
I live in philly, i ordered the regular set, its going to come to around 40 bucks i believe
the special edition version will be way less than 100 and far surpasses this version sold here
the dvd set is SUPER cheap but it is not region free and it IS in PAL. so most americans wont be able to see it
this is true for most of amazon.co.uk ‘s inventory. as far as blu ray, as long as it says region free, it will work in america, and it only takes a week to get here, and it is ALWAYS cheaper. and they have WAY more unique box sets and artwork.

A cheap package with all eight movies… the way I like it.,
I like how a lot of fans are slamming Warner Brothers for offering up a box set containing all eight films in one compact package. They accuse how WB constantly does this for the Harry Potter franchise, and to be fair, WB has been doing incomplete Potter boxed releases for years, starting with “Prisoner of Azkaban” onwards. But when the WB actually makes a nice package with all eight films included, they still complain because there’s hardly any bonus material. WB did this for their first four Batman movies before the glorious Batman Anthology came to be, so those fans have been waiting a long time that as well.
The set will just have a repressing of the initial releases, and the first three movies include their respective trailers, while “Deathly Hallows Parts 1 & 2” have deleted/extended scenes, so the “no extras” claim doesn’t hold as much water. They have some, as opposed to none. Not to mention the quality of the past three Ultimate Editions’ bonus features have declined to the point where I just stopped buying them (bulky packaging, no commentary and no extended editions are the deal-breakers). For me, I just want the movies, and this set allows that. For that alone it gets 4 stars. It’s a no-frills package but worth it if you just want the movies and save shelf space.
If you want a comprehensive box set with tons of extras for each movie, you’ll have to wait. Don’t buy it if you don’t want to.
