Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets(2002)Harry returns for his second year at Hogwart's School of Witchcraft and Wizardry along with his best friends Hermione and Ron. He ignores warnings not to go back to Hogwarts by a mysterious house elf named Dobby. Soon into the school year strange things start happening. Students are found in a petrified state, messages written in blood appear on the walls and Harry starts to hear voices in his head. It becomes apparent that someone has opened The Chamber of Secrets... but who is responsible and can the dark forces that lurk there be stopped? For more about Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Blu-ray release, see Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Blu-ray Review published by Greg Maltz on December 17, 2007 where this Blu-ray release scored 4.0 out of 5. Director: Chris Columbus Writers: Steve Kloves, J.K. Rowling Starring: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Kenneth Branagh, John Cleese, Robbie Coltrane Producer: David Heyman » See full cast & crew Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Blu-ray, Video QualityWhile the first film appears soft and diffuse, Chamber of Secrets has very good definition and contrast. With rich colors and convincing skin tones, it also shows none of the slight digital sheen within the grain noise observed in Sorcerer's Stone. Detail in textured clothes, facial expressions and hair are good. But the predominant beneficiary of the definition is the barrage of special effects, which are handled better this time around compared to the first film, where they appeared more canned. Even the trickly integration of the basilisk is very good, if not seemless. The CGI animation sacrifices some depth in the picture, but it does not get in the way of the overall quality, and is actually quite convincing. Watch the climactic scene in the chamber when the blinded snake lunges repeatedly at Harry. He scrambles for safety on a sculpture, stabbing at the basilisk's head with a sword. Though the animation does not convincingly address "weight" or "gravity", te CGI integrates well with the film, with a realistic, unpixellated characteristic to the edges of the snake. The visual details add to the overall interaction between Harry and the basilisk, making the scene more convincing. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets Blu-ray, Audio QualityThe sound definition also adds greatly to the impact of the special effects. Again, taking the example of the scene with the basilisk in the chamber, each element of the serpent's movements is characterized by a tonally distinct sound. When the basilisk strikes, there is plenty of deep bass and mid-bass rumble, as the rocks of the sculpture break apart from the impact. Although the sounds are palpable and convincing, they occasionally have a canned quality that does not perfectly match the visuals. For exampls, in the quidditch match between Gryffindor and Slytherin, the broomsticks sound more like flying jets than brooms moving through the air. Yet the overall impact is very impressive, and the audio quality has as much to do with this as the video. Surrounds are aggressive and so is use of the LFE channel. I would have liked to hear this mix in 24-bit resolution, but clearly Warner is unprepared to deliver the best that Blu-ray can offer. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets: Other Editions
