At the same time, a dangerous man named Sirius Black escapes from the Azkaban prison with one thought on his mind: to track down and kill Harry Potter. The third year at Hogwarts is full of excitement and danger for Harry and his friends Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger. Review: A well-deserved, but qualified, 5 stars - This review assumes that you've already either seen the movie or read the book. I won't go into the plot here. I'll say upfront that this movie was brilliantly done. Alfonso Cuarón truly captured the darker, more complex mood that J.K. Rowling gave to the third installment of the series. The cinematography and visual effects were excellent. I also thought that the soundtrack was absolutely perfect (if interested, please see my separate review for the soundtrack). The kids are beginning to really mature in this film. Their acting, which is evidently becoming more natural and fluid, has improved a hundred times over since Chamber of Secrets. Harry, Ron, and Hermione become closer in this story, and their friendships are even more important than before. I get the sense that Daniel, Rupert, and Emma are also becoming great friends, as their friendships on the screen seem so natural. The three have a great chemistry. Some complain that the kids are growing too fast, but I just don't see it. Kids their age simply grow at an exponential rate. I assume this also holds true in the wizarding world. They seem about the right age to me. The casting for the new characters is pretty good. David Thewils is a fantastic Professor Lupin, and Emma Thompson is a perfectly clumsy and mystical Profesor Trelawney. I did not, however, warm up so well to Michael Gambon as the new Dumbledore. But I think (hope) that will change with time. Gambon is obviously a good actor, and I think that if I hadn't already gotten used to Richard Harris, I would have said that his portrayal of Dumbledore was convincing. Hopefully, Gambon will grow on me in Goblet of Fire. Now for the "qualified" portion of my review. . . . I give this movie five stars from the perspective of someone who had read the book first. I can't imagine that I would have enjoyed the fast-paced movie as much if I had not already known what was going on. I did not, however, give this factor too much weight in my assessment because, given the time constraints of the movie, it probably had to be geared toward people who had already read the book. Of course there were many missing details -- the background about Sirius and Lupin could have used more explanation, and the secondary characters did not get much face time -- but deciding what to cut and what to keep is incredibly difficult when you adapt a 435-page book (each page packed with information) to a 140-minute movie. I believe that given the complexity of the story and the time constraints of the movie, the crew did a fantastic job with making those decisions; and that is why I give the movie five stars. Remember, the perfect Harry Potter movie would be about 8 hours long. That's just not possible. (Although, if it were, I would certainly sit through it!) Now for my favorite parts of the movie. . . . (1) I think my favorite part of the movie was the time-turner sequence. This was brilliantly done. I even looked for flaws the second and third times I watched the film, and I found none. Emma Watson was brilliant in this scene! (2) Aunt Marge's "blow up" sequence was absolutely hilarious. (3) The Hogsmeade scene with the snowball fight was fun, and Daniel Radcliff did an excellent job with the scene where he "overhears" that Sirius is his godfather. Long story short, this DVD is a must-have for Harry Potter movie fans. I think this movie is even better than the first two, and the DVD will be a good supplement for when you don't have time to re-read the book! Review: EXCELLENT !!! - It's Harry Potter.

Need I say more? ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Welcome to another year at Hogwarts! *by W***N on November 29, 2004* I have only watched the DVD four times since I bought it last week. This is after watching it three times in the theater and reading the book twice, and listening to it once. So I am not a fan, at least not as much a fan as maybe two or three other people in the world! I am very interested in using this and the books to contrast the differences each art form makes on the audience. (Can you say "audience" for a book?) There are some basics. The advantage of the movie over the book: it takes hours less time go from start to finish. The impact of the visual stimuli coupled with the music is tremendously powerful. The disadvantage: same. The advantage of the DVD over the movie: you can watch it on your terms. Disadvantage? None depending on the equipment used. I have tried it on a small lap top, large PC screen, and HDTV projector. (Dogs bark and you have to let them out and so on, but is this a disadvantage?) There is an advantage to the soundtrack CD over the DVD: it takes even less time from start to finish. It sounds like the advantage goes with the less time it takes to enjoy JKR's imagination when a big concern -- the real issue for most of us, is how much time you can afford to spend in JKR's imaginary world when we don't really have time turners of our own. Question: apart from the pecuniary value in all of this, (how much wealth has been transferred here?) are there any costs associated with the use of words like "Muggle" or phrases like "Welcome to another year at Hogwarts!"? Has there been any thought to using these movies as part of the media blitz in the Middle East? What happened to Nearly Headless? Agreed: the explanation scene between Harry and Dumbledore is important. What happens if the movies get too movieish? Worst: no time line for HP6? In short, the books are wonderful, the movies are wonderful, the music is wonderful on its own, so all of these offerings are absorbing and entertaining, so if you have the time to be entertained why not be entertained by the best? But a serious question remains that posed by Neil Postman in his book "Amusing Ourselves to Death" and Allan Bloom's "The Closing of the American Mind" both of which suggest the visual art form of movies (and TV especially) are harmful in the big picture. Pierre Bourdieu also riled against the media ("On Television") Which do you think is going to win over the minds and hearts of our children -- movies or books?
