A year later, Watson again starred as Hermione in Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, the second installment of the series. The Los Angeles Times said Watson and her peers had matured between films, while The Times criticised director Chris Columbus for “under-employing” Watson’s hugely popular character. … I think it’s much more realistic that they would argue and that there would be problems.” Nominated for three awards for Goblet of Fire, Watson won a bronze Otto Award.

Watson won the inaugural National Movie Award for Best Female Performance. The Washington Post felt Watson to have given ” most charming performance to date”, while The Daily Telegraph described the lead actors as “newly-liberated and energized, eager to give all they have to what’s left of the series”.
