Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (USA) (Warner Bros) (2004) ***1/2Year: 2004iMDB
Director: Alfonso Cuaron Cast: Daniel Radcliffe, Rupert Grint, Emma Watson, Alan Rickman, Robbie Coltrane,
The third Harry Potter movie installment picks up the pace after the somewhat disappointing second movie and with a new director a new Dumbledore (Michael Gambon replacing the departed Richard Harris) brings again the magic of the J.K.Rowling universe.
This time avoiding the pitfall of unnecessarily adding CGI action scenes and more focused on the story and the characters, the movie is closer to the book, and even manages to reproduce the significantly darker mood of the novel. In 2005, The Goblet of Fire is expected, this time under the helm of Mike Newell. Let the magic live on :)
