Corrected entry: There's no reason whatsoever the trio needed to risk telling Hagrid at nighttime that they knew about the Philosopher's Stone, as it ends up in them getting in trouble. They could have told him immediately after Hermione found out about the Philosopher's Stone in the library. Or if they couldn't find time between classes, they could have waited until tomorrow.

Correction: They are kids, they got excited. It's not a stupidity for a movie to have kids do stupid things. Kids do stupid things, that's why they are kids.

I don't necessarily agree with that. In the book, they had a legitimate reason to sneak out during nighttime as they were trying to smuggle Hagrid's dragon out of Hogwarts without it being seen, which isn't in the film, so there is no reason for them to wait until nighttime to talk to Hagrid about what they know, nor does it explain why Malfoy is there suddenly.
