Good Points

I thought it was good the way they showed some visuals like Sir Cadogan, he appeared just as you imagine he would, Professor Trelawney, Buckbeak, etc.

Bad Points

I didn't like the way the grounds had to be redesigned just for this movie, I thought it would really confuse some people who hadn't read the books. Also they didn't incorporate so many things in it. The werewolf needed to be far more visually terrifying.

General Comments

Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban - Although I thought personally the movie was good, I also think that it lacked many components, e.g., Harry spending a week or two in Diagon Alley, many Patronus lessons (he did have more than one you know), receiving the Firebolt (it was given to him at Christmas), more divination, etc., etc. The movie was far too short and came to the climax far too quickly. It wasn't thorough enough in explanation of what was happening in each scene. There needed to be more visual effects with the characters, not showing the age difference between the four main students as much (Malfoy, Harry, Ron and Hermione), make Dumbledore's beard white and GET RID OF THE ELASTIC IN IT!!!! Sirius' face needed to be more gaunt and hollow, (he's been on the run for almost 6 months!!) But all in all, it was a pretty good movie and I hope they make all the movies.
