  • stu ent IVIng dec. 4, 2002 - •an. 7, 2003 arry „o$ter and The Chamber of Secrets" By Eric Newsom I WCnewsmagazine wc newsmagazine wc 'feelÄimd fiewS Let me begin by saying that I do not envy screenwriter Steven Kloves his job - it's a tough one to say the least. Normal-sized novels very rarely work well as feature-length films, but works of epic proportions like those found in J.K. Rowlings' Harry Potter series can very seldom function anywhere outside of a made-for-television mini-series. Still Kloves and director Chris Columbus tried their best in making "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," the movie released last Friday, based on Rowlings' second book. Even with the final product clocking in at a little over two-and-a-half hours, the results were still disappointing. The film follows the adventures of young Harry as he prepares to enter his second year at Hogwarts' School of Wizardry and Witchcraft despite the warnings of a psychotic house-elf named Dobby. There he becomes entangled in an adventure regarding the titular Chamber of Secrets, a chamber of... well.. .secrets that one of the school's founders, Salazar Slytherin, built to hold a defense against too many human- born wizards enrolling in what he thought should be a "pure-blood" school. Along the way, there's a flying car, mysterious diary, some false accusations and a bumbling Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher who believes the sun rises and sets on his.. .award-winning wizard smile. But essentially, the film resolves itself to being a slave of solely plot. The attraction of the Rowlings' novels centers itself on well- constructed characters and interesting details. Because of the constraints that come along with audience attention span, these elements are thrown out the window in favor of the screenwriter seemingly scanning through the book for the action scenes, then calculating what bits of story he would have to string between them to make a somewhat coherent This works out fine product. for those of us who have read the books and know the parts they're leaving out; those who haven't are given the impression of a shoddy, generic kid's film with little to no literary value The few bits of or intrinsic charm. characterization that we do get in the film don't come from either plotting or dialogue - they come from the amazing abilities of most of the film's cast. Daniel Radcliffe still performs well as the heroic, yet on second thought kind-of-bland, little wizard Harry Potter. Alongside of him, and seemingly going through the same voice-cracking age of puberty, stands Rupert Grint making the best of inherent comic timing. Emma Watson as Hermione gets a lesser part in this film than the last, spending most of her time bed-ridden with a twisted claw ofapetrified hand beingheld by her Bieving friends, Alan%Rickman as Professor Severus Snape gets fewer lines this time around too, a shame since Snape serves as the most interesting character in the series, and Rickman has his characterization down pat. Richard Harris delivers his final perfect role as the school's headmaster Dumbledore (having passed away on Oct. 25 of Hodgkin's disease), and should be greatly missed by all who appreciate great actors who make the art look simple. Robbie Coltrane also returns, throwing himself completely into character as the humble-hearted giant Hagrid. Kenneth Branagh makes a one-shot appearance as the new Dark Arts professor Lockhart (the position constantly needs filling at Hogwarts) and is greatly underused in what could and should have been a pivotal role in the film. In fact, the great travesty of "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is that given the film's nature as an out-of-control roller coaster, none of the certainly able cast get to prove themselves in parts they've obviously worked hard on. Therefore, we get don't get to know, nor do we empathize with, any of the characters that we're supposed to pity as the movie progresses. Key characters from the book like Lockhart, Ginny Weasley and Colin Creevey have about five minutes of on-screen time a piece. It's as if the writer is attempting to tell us that if a giant snake isn't trying to kill us, or our flying car isn't being beaten to death by a whomping tree, then we're extraneous material in a world that craves in-your- face action. "But," I'm sure Mr. Kloves would say, "the movie can only be so long." Well, I say that if you can't do it right, then it's not worth doing at all. My imagination made better movies than this when I was reading the book, and it didn't take as many deus ex machina's to get through to the end. I guess anything with the name Harry Potter on it these days equals instant profits, and the quality of the product that is sold doesn't matter. If you've got the seven bucks, and a few hours to kill, to go out and see "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets," buy the book instead (Warning: Be prepared to be instantly hooked and have to buy the rest as well). Otherwise, it's like reading Cliff Notes for a book you're not even being tested on.
