I have to say, I think the films are pretty bad 
Try reading the books again because the beginning bit might be a bit boring but soon you will be wishing the book was longer

The books are awesome
Start with the first one, The Sorcerer's/ Philosopher's Stone--
[SPOILER - highlight to read]: It's basically about an orphan wizard, Harry, who was sent to live with his aunt and uncle, when he was one year old. His parents had been murdered by the most powerful and feared wizard, Voldemort. Voldemort had tried to kill Harry as well, but the spell didn't work. The result was that he, Voldemort, was drained of his power, and became no more than a spirit, bidding the time till he could one day regain his power. As a child, Harry had never known he was a wizard, until, at age 11, he was sent a letter regarding his acception into Hogwarts, the School for wizards and witches.
Once you have the basics covered, the books can take you from there

I wasn't that pleased with the third movie but I sort of agree with ladygrim; read the third book first. But only after you understood the basics of HP, though, 'coz you'll get even more lost.

THe books rock (after the first...kind of boring and made for little kids) and once you get into them, you will be eagerly anticipating the next 
The movies aren't all that great ( Havnt seen the 3rd one yet) and they stray from the books a lot, which i dont like...but who knows...maybe you'll like them 
Well, the basic idea of harry potter is [SPOILER - highlight to read]: that there is this boy, who thinks he is normal, but one day he gets a letter from this school and finds out that he is a wizard. He goes to the school, and the books are about the adventures he encounters while at school. Most of them involve a powerful dark wizard, Voldemort, who killed Harry's parents and wants to kill harry
