Some movie-loving wizards must have cast a magic spell on Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, because it's another grand slam for the Harry Potter franchise. Demonstrating remarkable versatility after the arthouse success of Y Tu Mamá También, director Alfonso Cuarón proves a perfect choice to guide Harry, Hermione, and Ron into treacherous puberty as the now 13-year-old students at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry face a new and daunting challenge: Sirius Black (Gary Oldman) has escaped from Azkaban prison, and for reasons yet unknown (unless, of course, you've read J.K. Rowling's book, considered by many to be the best in the series), he's after Harry in a bid for revenge. This dark and dangerous mystery drives the action while Harry (the fast-growing Daniel Radcliffe) and his third-year Hogwarts classmates discover the flying hippogriff Buckbeak (a marvelous CGI creature), the benevolent but enigmatic Professor Lupin (David Thewlis), horrifying black-robed Dementors, sneaky Peter Pettigrew (Timothy Spall), and the wonderful advantage of having a Time-Turner just when you need one. The familiar Hogwarts staff returns in fine form (including the delightful Michael Gambon, replacing the late Richard Harris as Dumbledore, and Emma Thompson as the goggle-eyed Sybil Trelawney), and even Julie Christie joins this prestigious production for a brief but welcome cameo. Technically dazzling, fast-paced, and chock-full of Rowling's boundless imagination (loyally adapted by ace screenwriter Steve Kloves), The Prisoner of Azkaban is a Potter-movie classic. --Jeff Shannon

 No extended versions?? August 26, 2010

I'm a total fan of both the Harry Potter books and the movies. I purchased the first two Ultimate Editions primarily to have the extended versions. I was always frustrated that they didn't originally put them in the first DVD's (other than the individual clips) but they would insert the extra footage when they played the movies on tv. When I learned the ultimate editions were coming out for the 3rd and 4th movies I was overjoyed UNTIL I heard that they are not including the extended cuts. Hello?? Isn't that what the "Ultimate Editons" are all about?? Needless to say I will not be purchasing these.

Grandchildren have read all Harry Potter books. Now they get to watch all of the movies when they visit grandma.
An exciting ride August 12, 2010

The prisoner of Arzaban is the third saga of Harry. After a wit beginning in which Harry punishes his own aunt turning her into a enormous globe, he will have to deal with an obscure treat. Sirius Black has escaped from prison and goes for him to make some adjustments from the recent past.
Meanwhile, the story intermingles funny sequences, the art of reading the tea and some other devices of our young magician.
Funny and amusing all the way through. Kudos for Gary Oldman, Michael Gambon and Emma Thompson in their respective roles.

No extended cuts that are aired regularly on TV and no lossless audio. The extras make it a tempting buy, but WB skimped on the crucial aspects of the "ultimate" editions this time
No Extended Version??----No Sale July 20, 2010

The Extras are nice....sure. But the reason I bought the first two Ultimate Editions was primarily to own extended editions of the films. Warner Brothers is stating that they asked the directors if they wanted to make directors cuts and they both said no. I find that just idiotic. With all that extra footage....and I hear there is a lot....forget the directors. Have a disc of the original and then just make and extended edition without the directors' inputs. People love extended editions and would pay to see them on this package. Just look at the negativity surrounding the Lord of the Rings release. Many, many people would not buy it because it was not the extended editions. Same thing will apply here. I guarantee this will not sell nearly as well as the first two editions primarily because of the lack of an extended version. When will these companys learn? NO SALE!!!!!
