Is Harry Potter a fraud?

My 2am musings:

As ITV have recently shown all the Harry Potter films, I made time to watch them all in sequence.    I studied them closely but I fail to see him as a wizard.     All the magic that happens is either given to him or done to him.    The only thing you ever see him do for himself is shoot people with his Phazer-wand – which was given to him.

Hermione does all the donkey-work magic while Harry gets all the fame.

Am I missing something?

  • The books are so much better than the films. Whilst I LOVE the films with every fibre of my being, the books are just that much more amazing. He still isn't 'as good' as others such as being compared to Hermione, but he did some actual spells in the books.
