Cars fly, trees fight back, and a mysterious house-elf comes to warn Harry Potter at the start of his second year at Hogwarts. Then, Harry hears strange whispers echo through empty corridors — at Hogwarts, a chamber has been opened.
A darker, more confidently directed second outing that critics agreed was an improvement on the first — even if the runtime tested patience. Kenneth Branagh's preening Lockhart and the basilisk climax are the highlights.
