Paragraph 2 Short
narration about the story in the movie, but don’t spoil the ending.
Brief description of the main characters
The story is about Harry Potter (Radcliff), a weird orphan boy who had been living with his aunt’s family since he was a baby. His aunt, uncle and nephew always treated him badly. He was literally forced to live in a cupboard under the stairs in their house. Until one day, a letter came for Harry, inviting him to come to Hogwarts, a school for wizards. Harry finally found out that his parents are wizards who were killed by the lord of black magic, Lord Voldemort, in the attempt of actually killing him. Then as the life of Harry Potter in the wizarding world started, he realized that he is the only one who can save the wizarding world from black magic, which means he has to deal with Lord Voldemort again, until one of them won.

Your personal opinion
Your final overall thought of the movie
The story in the movie actually shows that love and sincerity would always win. I know it sounds boring, but this movie showed it in such an interesting way. It is surely a fictional story, as I believe that there are no wizards in the world. But the setting, the story and the casts, they all made everything in the movie felt so real. I have to admit that Harry Potter movies are the best movies I have ever seen.
