A year of mummies and monsters, wizards and rings — and things

OK, so 2001 wasn't Hollywood's finest 365 days. But fantasy films flew high, led by that young wizard-in-training 'Harry Potter.'

Our 2001 Mega Movie Guide has capsule reviews of the movies of 2001, along with critic David Sterritt's top 10 choices, the results of our reader poll, and other fun features. Enjoy!
