    Dare I ask why you don't want to see it again?

    "Expecto patromun" says it all really. Just had to cringe.

    I want to see it. I only recently have started reading the books and Prisoner of Azkaban was the best one.

    Saw it last night. I definitely liked it, but for some reason not quite as much as the first two. I still can't put my finger on why, but the margin is very, very small. Great flick, I enjoyed it.

    @Apeman: You mean Dobby? No, he's not in PoA, for which I am extremely grateful.
    @DR: Same here. I think they cut more of the story in this one than the first two.

    It's alright. Watchable. But not a film thats about to stick in your mind as being great.
    Some good acting by the big boys and the kids have come on abit since the first 2.
    Emma Watson should be sh!t hot though when she gets older.

    Good movie, but the kids seem dumber this time around. There are things happening in the plot that they really should have figured out a lot sooner than they did -- especially Hermione.

    I didn't think it was very exciting. The main thread of the plot had them all waiting around worrying about whether Sirius would come and get them or not. That doesn't provide the same dramatic power as it does when the protaganists are the ones who drive the plot forward.

    There's a part of me that wishes that they had shown more Quidditch in this movie. I understand why they took out most of it (due to costs of filming), but in my eyes, book 3 was very Quidditch driven.

    I also found that the timeline of what happened when got totally distorted.

    I'm probably going to buy it when it comes out on DVD, but I'm not planning on seeing it again in theatres.
