Sooo Disappointed

Rating: Null/10 (17 June 2004)

After anticipating this movie for so long, I was sorely disappointed. Why has the whole set changed? Did Hogwarts move to a different school and location? In the first 2 movies directed by Chris Columbus gave you an insite about what the book was about. They flowed smoothly from scene to scene and really established a connection to the characters. I've read all J.K.Rowlings books and was surprised to see that she accepted "The Prizoner of Azkaban" script. It didn't follow what we all have come to expect of the Harry Potter movies; the places we have all become familiar with, the grounds, Hogwarts and the Great Hall. It's as though you are going to the same school since your first year, you know the lay out and the grounds very well, then you attend the same school and your lost! The movie was very choppy and was directed as though the person didn't read the book at all, just did a little scene from each chapter and thought;let me get this over with as quickly as possible. Please.......Chris Columbus come back. No one can do justice to J.K.Rowlings books but you.
