I must say... this was a fun film. I enjoyed it quite a bit. Some of it was a little confusing on the first viewing... but not so bad where it couldn't be followed. Though I must say the character of Box and the scene with him did seem out of place in the movie. But that was not enough to ruin the film. If you never seen this one I definitely recommend checking it out.

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

---

While I still really enjoyed this movie, I did wonder about some of the changes - I still don't think there was a need to move the Whomping Willow or Hagrid's house.  I also think that a few explanations were left out that should have been included.  I know someone who hadn't read the book before seeing the movie and they were completely confused on some things.  It wouldn't have taken that long to share the few little bits.  It is a decent adaptation overall.  I like the new characters and creatures that turn up.  The story continues to get a little darker, just like with the books.  There is a little more violence, though nothing too extreme.  There are a lot of magical elements to the movie.  I love how often the moving portraits are seen, even just in the backgrounds.  I was disappointed that Nealy Headless Nick was missing.  This was the first of the books that didn't deal with something closely tied to Voldemort....and he doesn't turn up in any way.  The dementors are wonderfully creepy.  The movie, like the first two, looks wonderful on Blu-ray.  I still don't really like the look of the werewolf in wolf form, but that is a minor issue for me.

The main extra in this Ultimate Edition is focused on how the different creatures have been made.  Creatures from all the movies through the sixth one are featured.  The different models used are seen, including a huge one of one of the dragons from the fourth movie.  The special effects used to create other creatures, like Buckbeak, are discussed.  The featurette is wonderfully entertaining and interesting.  Again there are interviews with cast and crew, including Daniel, Emma, and Rupert. 

I did post a review on Epinions after I saw the movie in the theater originally.

Angel Marathon, a review by addicted2dvd

21. Power Play
Original Air Date: 5/12/2004
Angel's strange behavior convinces the gang that he's joined an elite group of evildoers called the Circle of the Black Thorn - a group he could have only joined by killing one of his own.

Guest Stars:
Christian Kane
Dennis Christopher
Alec Newman
Jenny Mollen
Adam Baldwin

My Thoughts:
Starting to get really good again. This is basically the first part of the series finale. The team thinks Angel went bad... but that is what he needed them to think.

My Rating:
