Year three at Hogwarts means new fun and challenges as Harry learns the delicate art of approaching a Hippogriff, transforming shape-shifting Boggarts into hilarity and even turning back time. But the term also brings danger: soul-sucking Dementors hover over the school, an ally of the accursed He-Who-Cannot-Be-Named lurks within the castle walls, and fearsome wizard Sirius Black escapes Azkaban.

Looks like "chuckamundo" (commenting below) doesn't realize the Harry Potter series is set in England. Or maybe doesn't realize that the language English actually, you know, comes from England. Or maybe is a troll? I can't decide. Personally, I love British slang.... The Harry Potter movies are okay but I love the books so much better.

Special affects REALLY kewl, character dialog and slang is REALLY terrible and annoying unless you're from England. What is WRONG with the Harry Potter producers and putting this kind of "english" in a movie? It is as bad as L. A. black gang slang! These professionals SHOULD realize there's english outside their little country.

Of all the films this is my favorite one, although I love all of them. This film marks the turning point from being a children's series to a young adult one by becoming a little darker. It was a good transitional film aimed to a little more mature audience. Alfonso Cuarón, director, gave the series a new perspective and tone, which was refreshing, intriguing and amusing. Who does not like a plot in a magical world with dementors ("soulless creatures"), murderers, werewolves, animaguses (wizards that can turn into an animal or magical creature), griffins (magical creatures with the front legs, wings and head of a giant eagle, and the body and hind legs, and tail of a lion), betrayals, and wizards of course? Great movie!!! I recommend watching the movie first, and reading the book after; that way you can still get pleasantly surprised.-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------SPANISH: Esta película cinematográfica es mi favorita en la serie, aunque me encantan todas. Este filme marca el cambio de rumbo de ser una serie infantil a una serie para adolescentes al tocar temas un poco más obscuros. Es un buen filme transicional para una audiencia un poco más madura. Alfonso Cuarón, director mexicano, le dio a la serie una nueva perpectiva y nuevo tono, lo cual fue refrescante, intrigante y divertido. ¿A quién lo le gusta una trama en un mundo mágico con dementores (“creaturas sin alma”), asesinos, hombres lobos, animaguses (magos con la abilidad de convertirse en animals o creaturas mágicas), griffins (creaturas mágicas con extremidades delanteras, alas y una cabeza de águila gigante, y cuerpo, extremidades traseras y cola de león), con traiciones y magos por supuesto? ¡¡Es una grán película!! Yo recomiendo ver el filme primero y leer el libro después; de esa manera aun pueden ser gratamente sorprendidos.

One of my favorites in the series and a real standout I think. The plot and special effects stayed top notch as in the 2nd film. The series takes a slightly darker turn and stays fairly mature compared to the first movie. the characters grow physically and in the movie start to develop more of an arcane arsenal. I wasn't disappointed. Well worth watching.
