Some movie-loving wizards must have cast a magic spell on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it's another grand slam for the Harry Potter franchise. Demonstrating remarkable versatility after the arthouse success of Y Tu Mamá También, director Alfonso Cuarón proves a perfect choice to guide Harry, Hermione, and Ron into treacherous puberty as the now 13-year-old students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face a new and daunting challenge: Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) has escaped from Azkaban prison, and for reasons yet unknown (unless, of course, you've read J.K. Rowling's book, considered by many to be the best in the series), he's after Harry in a bid for revenge. This dark and dangerous mystery drives the action while Harry (the fast-growing Daniel Radcliffe) and his third-year Hogwarts classmates discover the flying hippogriff Buckbeak (a marvelous CGI creature), the benevolent but enigmatic Professor Lupin (David Thewlis), horrifying black-robed Dementors, sneaky Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall), and the wonderful advantage of having a Time-Turner just when you need one. The familiar Hogwarts staff returns in fine form (including the delightful Michael Gambon, replacing the late Richard Harris as Dumbledore, and Emma Thompson as the goggle-eyed Sybil Trelawney), and even Julie Christie joins this prestigious production for a brief but welcome cameo. Technically dazzling, fast-paced, and chock-full of Rowling's boundless imagination (loyally adapted by ace screenwriter Steve Kloves), The Prisoner of Azkaban is a Potter-movie classic. --Jeff Shannon

Rating: - Expecto Patronum
for blu ray reviewers, order of phoenix is better in video and sound quality. but prizoner of azkaban is a movie that you like to watch over and over again. Nice colors when harry is saving the big bird.
Rating: - Loved it
It's Harry Potter need I say more. I really love how the producers kept as close to the original book. I can't wait for the rest of the movies.
Rating: - One of my favorite Potter films
I just love this story and love this film. Very well done and while a little different than the book, they did a great job capturing the essence of the book. This can be a very difficult task for loyal Harry Potter series readers that love the story the way it is. They actually pulled it off - in my opinion.
I always find myself tearful when he conjers the stag and realizes the source.....every single time.
A real treat for Potter fans of all ages. I don't have many films in my video library (other than my kids movies), but I had to purchase this one for myself. They too, loved it.
Rating: - It's Harry Potter!!!
Who doesn't like Harry Potter. It's got excitement, children, fun, magical characters and creatures. As long as the people watching it are old enough to understand that it is fiction and that they can't walk through subway walls and they aren't going to have there mail delivered by owls, or that it's in any way okay to have children living in the cupboard under the stairs, it's great fun.
