Why Prisoner of Azkaban is still the best

Story by:  Léon DeGrelle


To be quite frank here, it was the scenery, and the fact that Alfonso Cuarón, made it gritty in some scenes....following the actors in a shaky camera action.  Movie direction like that, literally puts someone in to the movie itself.  Whan I first saw it back in 2004 when it opened, I was quite dizzy, but I liked it, because it was as if one was in it.  This movie, further expanded the wizard world, way beyond Hogwarts or even Diagon Alley.  it introduced us to other creatures, such as the wonderful display of cinematography seen, when Harry Potter rode the hippogriph, Buckbeak, even the rippling effects of Buckbeaks claw slashing through the water in an amazing scene of the Care of Magical Creatures class conducted by Hagrid.  Also, the kids, were mostly seen out of their Hogwarts clothes, to more muggle clothing, as breaking apart from the set standard and confines of just being students.....this movie expressed a better sense of freedom from the shackles of monotony.  This movie, alos foreshadowed some of the events that were to be in the last two books, even giving the author, JK Rowling, goosebumps just by watching it.  This was of course, the beginning of the darker phases of HP, including Potter being a much better wizard, after casting his first Patronus Charm, to do away against the Dementors.  To be honest, the Dementors never looked btter in any other film, but this one.  PoA, gave them life, not the fake CGI looking ones from the later movies.
