Harry Potter and the Chamber Of Secrets
"Outmatches even its own predecessor with more action, humor and thrills." -Claudia Puig, USA Today

This year at Hogwarts, spiders talk, letters scold and Harry's own unsettling ability to speak to snakes turns his friends against him. From dueling clubs to rogue Bludgers, it's a year of adventure and danger when bloody writing on a wall announces: The Chamber of Secrets has been opened. To save Hogwarts will require all of Harry, Ron and Herione's magical abilities and courage in this spellbinding adaptation of J.K. Rowling's second book. Get ready to be amused and petrified as Harry Potter shows he's more than a wizard, he's a hero!

I think it is interesting to note that as the students get older the books start to get more dark and you can even see it in the first and second novels! But this movie was very neat and the snake would have been very scray for younger viewers. Another great movie in the Harry Potter series!Fun - colinbrain
I have recently returned to the Harry Potter series, in order to watch the final film with the reminder of the past. I was a reader of the book series, so I am certainly biased when I say that the movie was a bit too stream-lined. Although it was a lot of fun, there are far too many resolutions that had me thinking "Well, that's convenient." It is a minor flaw that stuck out for me. It is a darker film than the first, but still suitable for younger children in my opinion. Overall, I enjoyed watching this film again and didn't feel like I was watching something for any specific age group.Good Movie - sampid
The movie sticks closely to the novel, but as in the last movie we miss some of those scenes where we start to learn a little more about the characters, especially the hate-hate relationship between Harry and Professor Snape (who was seriously underused in this movie!)
All in all it's definitely worth checking out, the running time of 160 minutes may seem a little long but it doesn't seem that long when you're watching it. By the way, whatever you do DO NOT leave until the credits have ended, otherwise you'll miss a little extra treat...
