Title: Full of fun, spookiness, and Potter quirkiness
Review: This movie captured the many striking elements of the book, Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban. As the book represented a sort of turning point for the Potter series, so does the film. Keep in mind that this vision of the novel--for it's not a rote, verbatim adaptation, and is in line with Rowling's wishes--is Alfonso Cuaron's. He owns this film, and he brings out the tension and excitement from the young stars in a way that makes the characters seem real.It's by turns hilarious, poignant, nerve-wracking (even when I already knew the plot!), frightening, and non-stop. A great flick, fun for any age. Also it has John Williams' best score in many years.
