Pros: Cast. Buckbeak.
Cons: Things left out or not explained enough. Some characters not used enough.

Pros: Great foreshadowing, advances the plot well, some intriguing plot turns
Cons: Lots of weird or poor looking effects bog it down
Summary: One again, there are eight films in this series and it becomes hard to tell one from the other. This one is confusing because Azkaban prison is in the second film, and might be in films after this one for all I know. In this third of eight films, Harry ... read more

Pros: The story here is lean-n-mean; Cuaron's directing; great visual effects
Cons: It eschews a few subplots and characters from the book
Summary: If you are familiar with J.K. Rowling’s Harry Potter novels – there are seven in all – you are doubtlessly aware that the further Rowling takes readers into her magical universe of wizards, Muggles and mythical creatures, the ... read more

Pros: Music
Cons: Special effects weren't quite as good as usual.
Summary: Ok, so if you haven't guessed by now I've been having myself a little mini marathon of Harry Potter's the past week. In fact, it's been the perfect way to de-stress after a long day at work. The Prisoner of Azkaban as the third movie in the ... read more

Pros: A Masterpiece in art, direction, music and acting. Six stars anyone?
Cons: Richard Harris died.
Summary: Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban Directed by Alfonso Cuaron. From the novel by J. K. Rowling. It’s the third term at Hogwarts and the magic of hormones is right on schedule. Harry blows up at his despicable Aunt Marge ... read more

Pros: Good cast, plot pretty good, great for HP fans
Cons: Scary for little ones
Summary: This film starts with the usual magical, Harry Potter theme music. It begins fairly true to the book, introducing us to the terrible Aunt Marge and her horrible dog. As Uncle Vernon's visiting sister she proceeds to berate Harry and his deceased parents. ... read more

Pros: Story, acting, special effects
Cons: A few minor ones
Summary: The third movie in the Harry Potter franchise brings us a new director in the form of Alfonso Cuaron. While there are some obvious stylistic changes to the movie, it still expertly captures the third book in the series. This year finds Harry ... read more

Pros: It is full of fun adventure and is highly entertaining.
Cons: It doesn't really follow the book and can get confusing.
Summary: I admit that I have been a pretty big Harry Potter fan. Read every book and seen every movie. I have to admit that I was kind of disappointed with the third movie, though. The way it deviated from the book was a big let down. For those who have not ... read more

Pros: gorgeous visuals, worthy adaptation
Cons: Ron's still underused, strange-looking werewolf
Summary: This past December, I became quite taken with the novelty song I Want a Hippopotamus for Christmas and quickly adopted it as my own anthem. But after re-watching Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, I'd like to amend my statement ... read more

Pros: excellent cast (other than Gambon), special effects, and a wonderful storyline
Cons: Michael Gambon and some cuts from the books
Summary: I am a huge die hard Harry Potter fan and I have to admit that I was very disappointed with Alfonso Cuaron's take on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. Because it is Harry Potter, I still enjoy it but I have a lot of problems with this movie. ... read more

Pros: Brilliant Scenery, Breathtaking Views
Cons: Poor representation of the book.
Summary: When this movie was first released, I was one of the first to go see it. As a movie by itself, I would give it 4 stars. But as a movie based on the third Harry Potter book, I would give less than two. The order of events, character portrayment, and ... read more

Pros: Harry throws rocks at himself. :)
Cons: Not enough rocks though. This movie should have been 15 minutes, not 2 hours.
Summary: I have never read a Harry Potter book. I never will. They seem very long a boring to me. I'd rather not even watch the movies. And I wouldn't have except I ended up babysitting a 3 year old who had the first Harry Potter movie. It was ok. ... read more

Pros: Great story, nice special effects
Cons: New director.
Summary: The first thing I must say is that I love Harry Potter. I started reading the very first book, Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone because I had overheard an aunt say to her son, "You don't have to be scared. Just do what Harry Potter would do." That ... read more

Pros: Story, Acting, Watson, Effects, and fantasy
Cons: the Director sucks at making movies and the changing props
Summary: The preview of this movie caught my eye the moment I saw it, I was anticipating it's release, and went to see it in theaters with a friend the day it came out. The beginning starts out perfect, as would be expected by the Harry potter series, him in his ... read more

Pros: 1) Much, much better than the first two
2) Creates a real world
Cons: 1) Some important scenes rushed, ending rushed
2) Minor acting critiques
Summary: This was, hands down, my favorite book. Even now, and I'm sure even after I've read the seventh, this will still be my favorite book. It introduced me to two of the best characters of the series and spent more time really developing all of the ... read more

Pros: scenery, main characters
Cons: Some of the special effects looked a bit fake. Some bad transitional edits between scenes.
Summary: I have never read the "Harry Potter" novels, so I was unaware of the story presented in this movie. With that said, "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban" to me is a dark movie with comical elements thrown in. The special effects are very well ... read more

Pros: The dementors, the Knight Bus...there must be more....
Cons: Them wearing “muggle” clothing, that freeze – frame ending with Harry on the Firebolt, Dumbledore.
Summary: WARNING: I am a die-hard fan of the Harry Potter books and like the movies to be loyal to the books Now, let me just say that I did enjoy the first and second film but this one was by far my least favorite. It starts with Harry (Daniel ... read more

Pros: Finally! A looser, more perceptive adaptation! Plus, amazing effects and a terrific cast.
Cons: Umm...can I use this space for more pros?
Summary: As great as the first two Harry Potter movies were (and I sure thought they were), Chris Columbus' direction was admittedly uninspired. It wasn't bad, per se, just nothing really worth noticing. I was actually kind of glad that he decided to hand over ... read more

Pros: Much more serious movie than the last two with improved acting and script.
Cons: The plot is different from the book in some places. Extras could be more detailed.
Summary: The Prisoner of Azkaban is my favourite book in the Harry Potter series, and therefore I remember, back in June 2004, greatly looking forward to this movie. The DVD version came out in November 2004 and comprises of two disks. Disk One- The Movie ... read more
