The Sorcerer’s Stone (2001)
2001 enter us to the golden tercet of Daniel Radcliffe , Rupert Grint , and Emma Watson . This is where it all began for a lot of citizenry ( who had not read the books ) . The first motion-picture show remains magical in its awe - inspiring first depictions ofHogwartscastle , flying lessons , Diagon Alley , and Quidditch .
Some may sneer at some of the special effects ( wait at you brick wall into Diagon Alley ) but that ’s not why we watch the first motion picture . Want to reconnect with your inner child?Sorcerer ’s Stoneis where you startle . block Rudolph and Santa Clause , this is what the season ’s all about .

The Chamber of Secrets (2002)
The last of the Christopher Columbus candy - colored HP movies often belong unappreciated . It ’s hard when it was the first film that picture what fans thought of as major cutting to storylines ( near Headless Nick never did get his deathday political party ) .
But , it will constantly be screw for the final portrayal of Richard Harris ’s pic - perfect Dumbledore . It ’s deserving watch just to see Harris coo at his newly " cover " Phoenix , Fawks . It ’s also the first time audience are introduce to Jason Isaac ’s supremely sadistic , Lucious Malfoy ( and his Paris Hilton wig ) . Do n’t skip it once you get a marathon go , it would be a loss , and not a real endurance contest anyway .

The Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)
The histrion certainly welcomed the opportunity to bear jeans instead of robes , and hearing were quick to embrace a more grown - up Harry in the hands of a new and aesthetic theatre director . Often consider as the most cinematic of all the Harry Potter films , Prisoner of Azkaban , bring in Alfonso Cuarón to the helm and introduced us to some of our favorite fictitious character for the first time on screen . Do n’t overlook Remus Lupin and Sirius Black as they enter the story .
While many more item fall to the wayside than they did in either of the first two movies , most fans see past that to appreciate the new deception of determined intent , and darkness not yet explored . The movie also welcomes a more factious Dumbledore , played by Michael Gambon .
The Goblet of Fire (2005)
Mike Newell , the first British manager to take possession of theHarry Potterfranchise , adds a certain English embarkation school charm to the film serial publication , while also staging one of the more successful climactic scenes in the franchise .
The next Batman , Robert Pattinson , makes his only appearance in aHarry Pottermovie in this fourth field day , as Cedric Diggory . Oh , did we observe dragon yet ? Yeah , not baby dragons , actual big Draco cause mayhem in this movie and it is greatly apprise . add up for the company ( Yule Ball ! ) leave with the first tearful ending ( but not the last ) .
The Order of the Phoenix (2007)
We hope you care the styling ofOrder of the Phoenixbecause music director David Yates is sticking around for the relief of the films . What ’s great about Harry Potters ' fifth pleasure trip on the big screenland ? Well , some of our best-loved characters are back ( Hi Lupin ! Hi Sirius ! ) and we meet a few more fantabulous novel faces ( Helena Bonham Carter as Bellatrix Lestrange and Imelda Staunton as Professor Umbridge ) .
If new character are n’t enough for you , here we get our first look at what the Ministry of Magic in reality looks like on screen . If there was ever a beautiful set , it ’s sure enough the atrium of the Ministry , and it sure goes to good use throughout the film .
The Half Blood Prince (2009)
David Yates returns to extend up another film full of roll of tobacco fighting rather than actual wand battles , but there is still much to value in the sixth motion-picture show . Many callthe Half Blood Princethe funniest of theHarry Potterfilms , and with all the snogging and hormones it ’s hard to argue .
Though , perhaps those moments were also meant to equilibrise the heart - wrenching finale before the finale . So much sadness and so little prison term . This is the last movie that allows the audience time to unfeignedly appreciateHogwartsand its earth before the 3 , and viewer take off for parts unidentified .
The Deathly Hallows Part I (2010)
The Deathly Hallows , surprisingly , is not the longest of theHarry Potterbooks , but it is the one that in the end got separate into two flick . ( Rumors once surroundedGoblet of Fire , but that movie kept the fib all together ) .
For the most part this Part I is a road picture , seeing the trio we ascertain develop up together finally set out on their own with no teachers or adults in towage . If there was ever a time for them to arise up , Deathly Hallows Part Icertainly speeds up that process .
The Deathly Hallows Part II (2011)
The rattling stopping point of theHarry Pottersaga is quite the ride . Most of the movie feel like one continue action mechanism scene , and that is not something that anyone is contend against . From the loss of beloved characters , to the screaming Voldemort / Draco hug , and a terminal appearance by the incomparable Alan Rickman as Severus Snape , the series did not wait for the finale just to disappoint fan .
The great matter about living in 2019 is that no one has to wait calendar month between determine Part I and Part II these day unless they really want to .
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016)
marvellous Beasts and Where to Find Themand its sequelThe Crimes of Grindewaldcan always make for a nice prequel viewing if the kin has n’t had enoughHarry Potterwith the original eight films alone ( and who really has ever had enough ofHarry Potter ? ) . Stretch your mind with a all newfangled shape of characters ( except Dumbledore , because that man is everywhere ) and see what high jinks haunt the world before Harry even enter it .
Enjoy a much more extended listing of locations than classrooms , dorms , and ground . inflict New York and Paris .
