I love Harry Potter, and POA is my absolute favorite. I adore Prof. Lupin. he's awesome and my favorite chara. in the whole series! Read all seven books, watched all 5 movies, regular visitor of Mugglenet, and many other fansites and I must tell you to IGNORE! the people who are reviewing who haven't even watched it and are only writing about the witchcraft. Also, to the person complaining about Harry and Hermione acting like teenagers, well they are teenagers, so wow! they act teenagers, who would have guessed that.

Really loved this installment of the Harry Potter films. The change in directors allowed the series to grow up a bit, get darker and more frightening. The Dementors scared the hell out of me, the casting is just perfection, and you can give me any film with Alan Rickman in it!!!

This movie doesn't measure up to the last 2 but it was still entertaining. It was slow getting started but then got better as it went along. I would have felt lost if I hadn't read the prior books ...

This is probably the best one of them all. Great acting and I really liked that they focused more with the Dark Magic professor. The ending had a great twist to it, I really liked that. And serious black is a great character. Watch this movie if you like the Harry Potter series.

I liked this movie but the second one is the best so far. This one was very slow and boring at times. Werewolf's???

The true Harry Potter fanatics won't appreciate the elimination of some key elements from the book , but still a good film.

The theatrical version of the movie was very close to the original two visually, despite the change of director. A note for fans of the movies... the movie leaves out some very important points that were made clear in the books. How does the new Defense against the dark arts teacher know that the insulting piece of parchment is, in reality, a map? This is made clear in the book, but a rational explanation is never given in the movie. There are other points that may confuse those few who have not read the books. All in all, I thought the movie was well done, but falls just short of excellent.
