"Why is it always me?" - Neville Longbottom

So, this post is actually quite over due.  But, I finally watched Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets.  While I was surprisingly impressed with the Sorcerer's Stone, my reluctance with the Chamber of Secrets proved to be merited.

Flat out, the Chamber of Secrets was annoying, tedious, predictable and very silly.  I get that it sets up the story for future events, but it doesn't change the fact that Dobby is a ridiculously annoying character, a Whomping Willow seems to be a pointless creation from the mind of Rowling, we could see that Myrtle was the one that was killed by Voldemort, and a flying car seems like a HUGE plot hole.  I mean, if they have a flying broom, why wouldn't they just use that to get to Hogwarts... AND WHAT'S UP WITH THE CAR LEAVING AND COMING BACK ON ITS OWN!?!?!?!?!?

Don't even get me started on Moaning Myrtle... *Sigh*.

Ultimately, I regret watching this movie and anyone who ever recommends this movie as "Great" to me has lost all credibility, as far as I'm concerned.

The one redeeming quality is that John Williams' score is still as inspiring as any of other of his works.  It's memorable and has a way of achieving the intended tone.
