I must compliment Chris Columbus. He has done a "bloody marvelous" job. The movie fulfills all expectations. There really isn't much more to say. If you have read the book, SEE THE MOVIE. If not, do it anyway. If you don't like this movie then your sense of imagination myst be terribly disturbed. You are probably a little grey man who goes to work in grey suit and spend all day complaining about almost everything. Wait there is a word for such a person. MUGGLER!!!!!
