Amazing movie!
I love this movie! By far one of the best Harry Potter movies! The actors are so young compared to the new movies! Also, iTunes: where are 3, 4 , and 5?!?!?!?! Those ones are great as well! Buy this movie!
Thank You iTunes
Great movie and lots of fun .... it is holding up well. iTunes, you put it up without any fanfare ...... very clever.... we have to keep checking the site to see if our favorites are available. Anyway, I do hope we get the other Harry Potter's someday. This movie is good for kids ..... not as dark as the others and some good lessons in friendship, loyalty and having fun.
