Reviews which might be of interest for "Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban (DVD)"
Advantages: CGI effects, acting, one liners Disadvantages: Lots of the plot missing, things in the wrong place.
When the HarryPotter films first came out, I was absolutely ecstatic! I loved the idea of the wonderful world that J.K.Rowling created on the big screen and went to watch the first film. After that, I couldn?t stop jabbering on about it and how good it was. However, I didn?t go potter crazy and buy every electronic wand or t-shirt that was for sale, I just appreciated the movie and then went to watch the second one. The second was quite good, but as the books got bigger, so did what was left out. When this third movie came out, I wanted to watch it, but held a certain amount of caution as to what it would be like. Here is my review, now months later and having the DVD firmly stacked in my DVD collection??

FILM REVIEW ONLY - NO DVD INFO
June 4 heralds the general release of the third instalment in the HarryPotter film series, HarryPotter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. A new director, new actors and growing children have given the film industry much to talk about. Will the film be as good (assuming you liked the first)? Will the formula tire? Will the change of director be accepted? All was revealed to me during a preview showing on Bank Holiday Monday.
The usual pre-release hype doesn?t seem to have been generated for this film to the same extent as the last two. Fans did pack Leicester Square for the European premiere but, unless I have missed it (which is entirely possible) the streets don?t quite feel filled with the buzz that has accompanied previous releases.
However, despite the hype or lack of it, there can be few in ...
Advantages: Siruis black returns, breaks out of jail. Disadvantages: Scary!
Harrypotter, love all the movies. But except from the latest HarryPotter movie, this was the best.
Great acting
Great storyline
Decent characters
Great features
And More.
Ok like I normally do in my DVD reviews, lets go over the basic storyline of the HarryPotter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban...
It starts of with a family dinner, his fat aunt came round to join them. She talked about his father, and harry done a spell on her. She floated away into the sky, harry got annoyed, and left home, he went on a night bus. To a place near Hog warts.
And all the manic starts from there.
Do I like the movie?
Yes defiantly would watch again.
Favourite features of movie
Sirius black and the map, that shows where everyone is.
Running time
About 130 minutes.
Thanks for reading.

Review
You may not believe in magic. But believe in the magic of the stunning movies which, like J.K. Rowling's gripping books, are set to be a global phenomenon for many years to come... AZKABAN delivers in spectacular fashion. Harry has come of age (Daily Mirror, 13/07/2009)
Mesmerising... astounding action... even more entertaining. Not-to-be missed sure-fire hit adventure (Daily Star, 13/07/2009)
Finally, here is a film that does justice to Rowling's soaring imagination. The virtue of a director with a fresh pair of eyes is evident. The supporting cast is almost needlessly talented. This is the best HARRY POTTER film to date (Daily Telegraph, 13/07/2009)
Simply spell-binding and the best Potter so far (News Of The World, 13/07/2009)
Siriusly brilliant. By far the best one yet (The Sun, 13/07/2009)
Cuaron's appointment to this franchise is the most inspired Hollywood gamble of the year... The camera work is a sensual feast (The Times, 13/07/2009)
DVD Description
In this adaptation of the third book in J.K. Rowling's best-selling series, Harry Potter (Daniel Radcliffe) and his best friends Hermoine (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint), must face the dangerous convict Sirius Black (Gary Oldman), who has ties with their enemy Lord Voldemort. The spectacular fantasy-adventure action of the earlier movies (SORCERER'S STONE and CHAMBER OF SECRETS) is once again presented here, as Alfonso Cuaron lends his unique directorial style to recreating Rowling's magical story on celluloid. A scarier, darker story than the first two, this one concerns the mystery behind why Sirius Black is tracking Harry Potter. Slowly Harry and his friends unravel the clues, and learn secrets about Harry's parents that had all along been hidden from him. Meanwhile, because the deranged Sirius poses a threat to all students at Hogwarts, the school enlists a group of daunting black ghosts called Dementors to stand guard. These flying ghouls have a powerful effect on Harry and frighten him to his core. Yet even these chilling obstacles don't dampen the spirits of the youthful wizards, who meet Buckbeak--a giant flying hawk-horse creature, welcome a new dark arts teacher (David Thewlis) and a new divination teacher (Emma Thompson), and are still determined to beat the rival Slytherin team in Quidditch. HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN offers a visually stunning interpretation of the revered book, and will thrill viewers with its special effects, it's penetrating John Williams score, and its superb performances.
