Review of Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004) by Worleyjamers — 07 Jun 2013

I don't think this is my favorite HP film, but it certainly is one of the best. Alfonso Cuaron's direction is what holds The Prisoner of Azkaban together There are many brilliant sequences throughout the film, but there are also some moments where I felt the jumbled plot could have ruined the film, but Cuaron's vision and direction holds it all together and makes for a wonderful viewing experience.

This film lacks some of the magic that the first films had, but the performances, writing, direction, cinematography, and tone are all spot-on.
