was this movie good? I THINK SO!!!!!!!!!!!

Rating: Null/10 (11 June 2004)

OK SO let's get straight into it yeah? harry potter and the prisoner of azkaban was AMAZING! it was so good it just blew me away! from the opening scene to the end credits all was one incredible action packed adventure! definitely take the kids and the grown ups to see this one! daniel radcliffe and rupert grint and also emma watson have greatly improved in their acting skills. they no longer seem to be reading lines from a script they are living the whole story. another incredible acting performance was done by David thewlis, the man who was chosen to play professor R.J.Lupin. in my opinion it was the best casting ever for a harry potter character not to mention really good acting too. compared to the first and second movies this third one by alfonso cuaron is definitely worthy of praise. the director was a great choice too, not that chris columbus was bad, but alfonso really did keep to the spirit of the books. it also had a more adult feel to it unlike the last two and he really knows how to make a movie darkeningly exciting, does alfonso cuaron. it wasn't so scary, more thrilling and it was perfect. gary oldman was excellent as sirius black the escaped murderer after harry and daniel radcliffe really played the emotional scenes very well. the best ones were with David thewlis. also the new dumbledore, michael gambon, really slipped into richard harris's shoes. if anyone could live up to him then gambon could and did. there weren't many scenes with gambon but it was a good introduction of him into the movie. so in conclusion: watch this movie, it's the best of the three. and if this is number three then i can't wait for number four. bring it on i say! and alfonso by the way kudos!
