Prisoner of Azkaban. Hmmm....
What they did, I liked. The movie was gorgeous, and I like the cast. Tom Felton is Jason Mewes' freaky British love-child (and too young to be that cute). And those were big dead ferrets.
But what they didn't do pissed me off. Hello, back story? The back story of which it is important to know? Here, story story... But alas, not to be found. Had I not read the book, I would be rather confused. And they can't keep making the movies the same length as the books get longer and longer.
But I llllloooffffff Alan Rickman. Even when all he does is wear a silly hat.
