I loved The Sorcerers Stone, and The Chamber Of Secrets, so I didn't know if I'd like this one as much. But I did, and it's awesome! All of the Harry Potter movies are exactly like the books, which are also amazing.

Each Potter movie gets better as they go, Harry Potter And The Deathly Hallows Part 2 is the best, Sorcerers Stone's the worst. None of them are bad, they're all 10/10 stars, but in comparison they get better as they go.

In this Potter movie: Harry runs away after his Uncle Vernon's sister is swollen up to a balloon because of Harry's anger, after Harry leaves he stops after seeing a black dog, then the night bus picks him up, and then drives him to The Leaky Cauldron in London, and he stays there after talking to Cornelius Fudge about doing accidental magic on his uncles sister, which Fudge says is okay, considering it was an accident, and his anger got the best of him.

He stays there for a while, then he regroups with the Weasleys and Hermione Granger. Ron's dad, Arthur, tells Harry he's in danger because of Sirius Black, the first person to escape from the wizard prison, Azkaban.

Then when they aboard the train, Professor Remus Lupin, Harry, Ron, and Hermione all sit in the same compartment, and then a dementor comes and attacks Harry, a dementor sucks out your soul, it doesn't kill you, but your a empty shell, Harry lives, and is fine, thanks to Professor Remus Lupin casting the dementor away with a spell.

And When they get to Hogwarts, even headmaster Dumbledore is worried about Sirius Black.Then the fat lady, one of the many living paintings, says she saw Sirius Black. All of Hogwarts goes into panic, so they put the students in the Great Hall while the teachers search the castle for Sirius Black.

Soon after, quidditch comes, and it's Gryffindor against Hufflepuff. During the game, Harry sees the large black dog he saw earlier in the film, shaped like a cloud, then a hoard of dementors attack Harry.

He falls off his broom and down to his death, but Dumbledore saves him with a spell, but Harry is still unconscious. When Harry awakes, his friend show him that his broom had crashed into the whomping willow.

When the time comes to go to Hogsmeade, Harry is forbidden because he didn't get his permission slip signed, so Fred and George Weasley give him the marauders map, a map that shows anyone, at any time, anywhere in Hogwarts, written by Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs.

The map also shows a secret passage way in Hogwarts which leads to Hogsmeade, he goes through the passage and meets up with Ron and Hermione, but then he overhears Cornelius Fudge and the Hogwarts teachers talking about how Sirius Black was responsible for Harry's parents death, and another old Hogwarts student, Peter Pettigrew, who Sirius Black killed with a spell that left nothing but a finger.

They go through lots of stuff, and it's awesome highly recommend, amazing movie!
