In the film, Ron freaks out, Harry and Hermione get out fine, and Hermione saves Ron who's too busy panicking to escape. It's Hermione who freaks out, and Ron has to yell at her to do something. Adaptational Wimp: Ron and Harry in the book keep their heads when in the Devil's Snare.However, both the novel and the film reveal the snake was bred in captivity. In the novel, it is a boa constrictor from Brazil. Adaptational Species Change: In this film, the snake Harry talks to at the zoo is a Burmese python.The change seems especially needless considering the original line was obviously a nod to the Greek origin of the Cerberus myth, which Fluffy is modelled on. Adaptational Nationality: Hagrid says he bought Fluffy from an 'Irish feller' rather than a 'Greek chappie'.Here, Harry kills Quirrell with the charm in his body, causing Quirrell to disintegrate, and is only brought down when Voldemort flies through him to escape. Adaptational Badass: In the books, Harry is barely able to hold off Quirrell before Dumbledore arrives, even with the charm in his body from his mother's sacrifice, and the effort nearly kills him, rendering him unconscious for three days, with Voldemort killing Quirrell by leaving his body offscreen.Adaptational Alternate Ending: In the novel, an epilogue shows Harry and his friends return to their families who are waiting for them including the Dursleys.The flying key room - which the Trio originally get through quite easily thanks to Harry's Seeker skills - was changed so the rest of the keys attack Harry the moment he gets on the broom (one of them leaves a noticeable cut on his right hand), and he just barely gets the right one for the door and gets out before the rest skewer him.In the film, he flies around erratically for a bit before crashing. In the book, Neville's flying mishap merely consists of him flying upwards and then falling off his broom.
