This movie introduces the character of Sirius Black and the actor, Gary Oldman. This proves to be a pivotal transition in Harry Potter's life; finding some person who finally shows him love as a father/brother figure. It's very powerfull. Getting to this end, though, Harry meets a new professor who teaches him a most powerful spell; one which gives Dumbledore new clues as to Harry's growth as a very powerful wizard. Amazing special effects!! Still, the film didn't reflect the book in several ways, which was disappointing.

This movie was great and preatty entertaining but I think that the filmmakers could have worked on making it a bit closer to the book. I liked it though.

This film has got a much darker feel. Part of that is a new director and Harry`s world is really turning upside down. It might have some scary elements for younger kids. So some that saw the first two might find this one too scary. But older fans of the series will be waiting to see how the book translates into film.

This is what I describe the movie as. A puzzle. They took the book, choped it up into tiny peaces, and put everything in the wrong spot. Nothing was were it was supposed to be. Harry is NOT supposed to get his new broomstick at the very end of the movie. They took out parts and added new ones that didn`t make sense! In other words, this movie was horrible. Did you think of actually reading the book before making the movie?
