HPPA

Saw Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban yesterday. The movie has a few directorial touches that are simply brilliant: snow falling on the 'camera' in front of the whomping willow and Harry's flight on Buckbeak, to name just a couple. The script is tight and has done a good job in eliminating what was unnecessary to the overall flow.

On the flip side, I thought Gary Oldman was miscast. The dementors could have been scarier (I couldn't help but compare them with the ringwraiths from The Fellowship of the Ring), and good old Richard Harris as Dumbledore was solely missed. But this, to me, is the best of the lot. Worth seeing on the big screen.

  6. :) This makes my monday.

    And yeah, the script was tight. And plus Cuaron gave a much darker, grimier look to the movie ...as compared to a very clean doll-house look in the other movies.
