I’ve recently started binge-watching films again, and I decided to continue with the Harry Potter movie series. I actually just finished the first film yesterday, and I have to say, I still don’t really like it.
Watching it again reminded me why I didn’t enjoy it the first time. The film leaves out a lot of details from the book. Some of these details might not seem important to the director, but in the book, they explain why certain things happen and what happens later.
When I only watch the film, I find it hard to fully connect with the story. It feels a bit rushed, and I miss the background and the deeper explanations that make the story meaningful. Because of that, I’m honestly not sure if I’ll continue watching the rest of the Harry Potter films, even though I really like the books.
