Harry Potter: Complete 8-Film Collection (DVD)

Great movies for the price.

Best Movie Collection EVER!!! At least, that is what my son thinks. Let me set the scene in my household. I have a 6 year old son that gets so wrapped up in things that it becomes his reality. I love how this kids imagination just runs wild with whatever it is he gets into. He loves Star Wars, Legos, Ninja Turtles, Transformers, etc etc etc, basically all things that a young boy would just love. I purchased this movie set for my wife for a Christmas gift because she loved the books and the movies (truth be told, so do I). I thought that it would be a fun thing for us to have for nights when the kids go to bed early, something fun for us to cuddle up with each other on the couch and enjoy. What I didn't realize is how it would transform my son's world into a world of magic, spells, and wands. My wife showed the first movie to our 3 older kids (9 year old daughter who has read all of the books, 6 year old son, and ~3 year old daughter) one day during the Christmas break after they had finished their chores. My daughter knew what to expect b/c she has read the whole series, but my son was just captivated. He loved everything about the movie and wanted to watch more. The kids ended up watching the whole series (minus a few scary parts when we had them cover their eyes) over the course of the next week. Since that time, my son has wanted to do nothing but watch, read, and play Harry Potter. I am reading the books to him each night before bed and we are just finishing up the 3rd book. He purchased a couple of Harry Potter Lego sets with money that he earned doing chores. We even ended up buying a couple of replica wands for each of the kids for Valentine's Day gifts. I love how wrapped up into this world he has become. He will go outside after school and has now convinced several of the neighborhood kids to play Harry Potter. They all have wands, run around casting spells at each other. They have a fantastic time doing it and it is all in good fun. The other day, my almost 3 year old started casting spells at me. She only knows one spell, the Avada Kedavra spell, which of course is the death or killing spell. She can't quite say it right, but it is the cutest thing in the world to hear her yelling spells at me or her brother just so that she can play along too. I love this movie set too, but not just because they are good movies. I really love how much they have opened up the minds of my kids and helped them to see the joy of books and using their imaginations to play. My daughter loved this book series and she has now started into other series of books. My son tries to read the books on his own, and he is getting much better at reading because he is so focused on it. It also is fun to go down into his room at night and read with him, and have him want to listen and spend time with me. I couldn't be more pleased and thankful to own these movies now. I can't recommend this series more to anyone that has kids and wants to find ways to spark creativity, curiosity, and even motivate those kids to want to read.

I have been wanting to get the entire set for my daughter for years, and now at a reasonable price she has a very cool birthday gift.

I would have preferred some more details in the description of what you get in each package, and I hope that amazon does a better job seperating reviews from product to product as some of the reviews DO NOT apply to the 4kUHD set.

Everything was good but first disk was glitchy after more then halfway.

Tolle Filme, habe es meiner Frau geschenkt, sie ist begeistert. Es gibt nichts zu meckern.

Cheap knock off, didn't

Amei esse box Bluray + 4k Pra quem é fã não tem como deixar de ter! Bluray: somente o filme 1 não tem opções em português 4k: somente o filme 1 e 7 não tem opções em português

Boitier pratique qui permet d'avoir toute la série en un volume minimum . Seul point négatif et non négligeable , le Blu-ray N° 1 ne sait pas être visionné en français et cela est écrit en tout petit à l'arrière de la pochette , seulement de l'anglais pour celui-là .

I like having all the extended editions in one place. Being able to finally get the dialog with closed captions is nice. Downside is there's nothing but the films: no added material, no extra audio tracks.
