Gryffindor's Sword. When Fawkes the phoenix brings Harry the Sorting Hat in the Chamber of Secrets, the Hat produces a ruby-covered sword for Harry. Harry uses that sword to kill Slytherin's basilisk.
Auditory Imagery. Sounds at times represent social transgression, as when Hedwig screeches, disturbing Uncle Vernon's sleep, and when Dobby makes noise that disrupts the Dursleys' dinner party with the Masons. Both demonstrate Harry's precarious, powerless position in the household.

Dobby is the best. He is introduced in this film in the beginning and his scattered appearances to give us the information we need as well as some funny antics make him such a memorable character. If you don’t smileat the scene at the end of the movie where he says, “Master has presented Dobby with clothes! Dobby is free,” there is no hope for you....
Here we get introduced to one of the coolestmagical items a wizard can own: the Weasley’s flying car! From using it to get to Hogwarts after they miss the train and getting stuck in the Womping Willow, to using it to get out of the Forbidden Forest when Aragog unleashes his spider sons and daughters on Harry and Ron, it really is a character in its...
In all of the Harry Potter films we always have Harry, Ron and Hermione trying to uncover secrets or get closer to defeating Lord Voldemort but in this film it plays out where the three are trying to solve a major mystery. They must figure out what exactly the Chamber of Secrets is, where it is, who has access to it, who the Heir of Slytherin is an...
What does the audience want to see more than Harry and Malfoy face off against one another in Quidditch? Not much. The rivalry that gets built up in the first film certainly is heightened in this movie. You even have the whole roped bludger scene which eventually results in Harry’s bones disappearing from his arm thanks to Gilderoy Lockhart (and a ...
In this film Harry, Ron and Hermione discover how to brew Polyjuice Potion, which is one of the most fun scenes of the film. The plan is brilliant as they try to find out what Malfoy is hiding and if he knows anything about the Heir of Slytherin (or even if he is) or the Chamber of Secrets by transforming into his two friends Crab and Goyle. The Po...
Ah, the Forbidden Forest scene. Here we get a glimpse into Ron Weasley’s worst fear–spiders of course. As Harry and Ron go visit Hagrid’s “pet” Aragog to see if he is in fact the monster of the Chamber of Secrets they have a little run in with hundreds of spiders who are trying to eat them. Luckily, who is there to save the day? None other than the...
Out of all the Harry Potter films, the battle at the end of this film is one of the best. The amount of things we learn about the Chamber of Secrets including what the monster is (the Basilisk), that Tom Riddle is in fact Lord Voldemort, that Ginny opened the Chamber of Secrets (controlled by Tom Riddle of course) and that Dumbledore’s pet phoenix ...
- Good looks aren't everything. Gilderoy Lockhart is a character that shows us what happens to people who get by their whole life based on their good looks – and it isn’t very pretty.
- Someone's background does not determine his or her value as a person. In this installment, the audience begins to learn about the prejudices in the wizarding world, which are very parallel to the prejudices in the world today.
- Don't underestimate anyone based on size or appearance. When Fawkes the phoenix shows up in the Chamber of Secrets, Harry pretty much thinks he’s screwed.
- Actions do not always equal intentions. Poor Ginny Weasley. She had no idea she unleashed a monstrous fanged serpent on the school and assisted in injuring multiple people (bonus points for the ghost and the cat).
One of the most important themes explored in the story of ‘ Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ‘ is discrimination and inequality between different magical beings and between the bloodlines of wizards and witches.
