This four disc set includes a Blu-ray of the film (featuring both the theatrical version, and a new extended cut), a Blu-ray supplement disc, a DVD supplement disc, and a Digital Copy. Previously released as a 2-disc Special Edition DVD, and then a single-disc Blu-ray, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets finally gets the treatment it deserves, in a new "Ultimate Edition". The visual effects are improved from the first film, and as the fame-obsessed Professor Gilderoy Lockhart, Kenneth Branagh is a fresh treat to watch on screen. As a result, it feels a little rushed - even though it runs over 2.5 hours - and might require revisiting the novel to fill in the gaps. Naturally, Harry and his good friends Ron (Rupert Grint) and the bookish Hermione (Emma Watson) work to figure out what's going on - and soon discover that (like everything in these films) it has to do with the impending return of the evil Lord Voldermort.īuilding on the foundation established in the first film, Chamber of Secrets is more engaging, and darker than its predecessor, but like the first film, assumes that everyone seeing the film has read the books. Of course, he returns, and soon strange things start to happen to students, and the legend of a secret chamber hidden beneath the school housing a terrible monster starts to resurface. When it was released in November 2002, the second film, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (based on the novel of the same name) was a box office sensation, taking in over $870 million worldwide.įollowing the events in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, we find our young titular hero (Daniel Radcliffe) forewarned by Dobby the House Elf not to return for his second year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, because terrible things will happen if he does.
