Harry Potter: The Complete 8-Film Collection

I'm actually very pleased with this product! It's very cheap, and very good quality. There are, however, a couple of things that I feel I should point out. First, the case that it comes in is a standard mass production case that most multi-disc sets use. Don't expect a lavish collectable case, especially for the price. The case is still very durable, and allows all of the movies to be stored in a small amount of space. Second, the films in this set ARE NOT THE SPECIAL EDITIONS. They are standard edition, as if the first disc from each movie was put in here. While there are some special features, there are not a lot. Next, the discs themselves appear to be great quality. All of mine worked extremely well, and there were no defects whatsoever, save one thing. The disc that I received for Deathly Hallows Part 1 is missing a cover. The disc is all black, and the title and copyright information are on there, but there is not picture. This, however does not in any way affect the viewing of the movie, and is only an aesthetic concern. Also, the box that the DVD's come in is not the absolute best quality, but it is sturdy. It serves it's purpose, and it looks very nice! PLease note, if you want something that's collectible, DO NOT BUY THIS SET. There are others out there that will better suit your needs. However, this set satisfies all of the casual viewers' needs. It presents the movies in an accessible, affordable manner, and is absolutely a great buy! I recommend this to all Harry Potter fans who wish to have all of the movies! EDIT As of Nov 12, 2013: It seems that the original product that I wrote this review for has been altered in some way. I'm very sorry for any confusion that results form this. Just to clear up, the set that i bought only included the 8 movies on regular DVDS. There were not any special features or extra discs.

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.

Why I bought it: I bought this set to upgrade from my blu-ray copies and do a full Harry Potter marathon in 4K. I already have seen the movies, so I wanted the best version of the full series in one bundle. Experience: The picture quality is excellent across the whole collection. On my 77" Sony BRAVIA 8 OLED, these movies look amazing, especially the later films with the darker visuals and bigger effects. The 4K presentation makes the whole marathon feel more cinematic and much more impressive than my old Blu-rays. The sound is also a huge part of the experience. I watched with a 7.0 speaker setup and no subwoofer, and it still sounded epic. The action scenes, music, and atmosphere all come through really well, and it made the movies feel much bigger than a normal streaming watch. The packaging was fine for me, and I like having the whole series together instead of buying the movies separately. Verdict: This is expensive, but most 4K discs are, and as a full 8-movie bundle I think it is a great value. If you are a Harry Potter fan and want a serious upgrade for rewatching the series, this set is absolutely worth it.

If you want to buy all of Harry Potter's movies in a single package, and you don't care much for extra features, look no further. At less than $7.00 per Blu-ray, this set gives you great value for your money. I wasn't a fan of the Harry Potter saga when the movies first came out. In fact, it was not until the 3rd movie, Prisoner of Azkaban, that I decided to give in to the hype, and watch the first movie. I was hooked, maybe not to a hardcore level that would compel me to buy all the books and collector’s editions, but just enough to want to have all the movies in high definition. This collection has all 8 movies for $54.99 (at the time of writing). When you realize that you get all the movies for just under $7.00 each, the decision becomes fairly easy. The box is very compact for such a (big) collection. It has roughly the thickness of two regular sized single disc DVD/Blu-ray boxes put together. Do keep in mind that this collection includes the movie discs ONLY. You do not get any extra discs with any features, though the movie discs do have a few extra features here and there. Another thing to note is that not all the movies have the same languages. For example, the first movies (first four if I remember correctly) have 10 to 15 different language audio tracks available, but the rest have only English, Spanish, French and Portuguese (again, IF I remember correctly). It seems to me that these collections are some sort of clearance of individual film box sets. For the sake of making a point, suppose that each movie is first individually sold in box sets that include the movie disc, and an additional disc with special features. Now suppose that you take only the movie discs from all 8 individual box sets and put them all together in a single box set. This is what you are getting. The reason I think this might be the case, is that the last 3 movie discs have extra labels printed on them, which read either “Disc 1 Movie” or “The Movie”. These labels are usually printed on discs that are part of a box set that includes other discs with additional features, as a guide to tell them apart. I am including a photo so you can see what I mean. Do keep in mind that this does not at all affect the quality or experience of the movies. I just point it out because you might notice the lack of consistency in the printed labels of the discs. To wrap things up: PROS - Great value for money, at less than $7.00 per movie at the time of writing. - Consistent video and audio quality. Great image and great sound in all the movies. - Several extra features included in all the discs. - All 8 movies neatly stored in a compact case. CONS - There are no discs dedicated to extra features. Most people will probably not care about this, but if having a lot of extra features is important to you, then you might want to check out another collection. - The disc case feels cheap, especially the disc holders. They feel as if they would break easily. - Inconsistent language audio track selection. Not all movies contain the same amount of available language tracks. NEUTRAL - No extra artwork included.

My favorite movie saga, I have a lot of collection things but I was missing the movies, and buying them in 4k are very worth it. They look amazing on my 75-inch TV, I highly recommend you buy this 4K saga.😉⚡🪄

I was surprised to really like the Harry Potter series: I hadn't read any of the books nor seen any of the films, but the precociousness of the three main characters in the first film hooked me. Even the magic surprised me in its quaintness (not the usually overdone visual effects). If you don't like Potterdom, then you will not like this collection. If you do, then it's hard to beat. Not only are all 8 films included in this collection, but each of the 8 has a companion extras Blu-ray disc, each of which has up to five hours of bonus videos, interviews, behind-the-scenes episodes, deleted scenes, and trailers. It's an expansive collection of all things Potter that will satisfy anyone in that realm. Technically, there are two notes: 1) some of the default audio options in the earliest films are not the highest resolution (I guess they thought that not all Blu-ray players back then could handle it); and 2) the artwork on the box does not match what is shown on Amazon's page (the front now shows the three images of Daniel Radcliffe (Harry Potter) as he aged through the films. The former is consequential if you want the highest quality audio, so make sure to check the options. The latter is just cosmetic and inconsequential. Finally, the price is reasonable, especially if you purchase this box set on Prime Days, in which case each year (movie plus extras disc) costs only about $3.75.

Great movies for the price.

We bought a used box and it came with 8 discs, but 2 of them were duplicates, so only 6 of the 8 DVDs. We are missing The Prisoner of Azkaban and the Order of the Phoenix. Overall the discs are in great condition and it was well worth the price, even if it’s not the complete series!

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.
