Washington Post review (ouch!)

"But there are some problems that not even the mighty Wizard of Oz or 
the mighty wizards of Warner Bros. can solve, and that's why "Harry 
Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" is big, dull and empty. Small kids 
who are entertained by aquariums, lava lamps, melting ice cream and 
other forms of random motion might enjoy it – when they're not peeing 
in their pants because of the giant snake at the end – but most human 
creatures who have evolved to sentience will be ground into numbness 
by its drear totalitarianism."  

I have heard that COS has a few problems, but he found nothing that 
he thought was redeeming.
