"If we turn our heads and look away and hope that it will all disappear then they will - all of them, an entire generation of people. And we will have only history left to judge us."
"The special features on the DVD didn't quite live up to all the hype, but are still fascinatingly enjoyable. The movie compensates for any critiques I may have in regard to the special features, but both should please all Harry Potter fans."
"Here's the bottom line: the producers of the DVD targeted it toward five and six year-olds - little kids who would take great amusement by the Shrunken Jamaican head, and Finding Scabbers behind the choir. I don't know why anyone would say that this DVD exceeded their expectations, unless they were themselves five and six years old."
"After so much anticipation, I was a little worried that I may have been expecting too much from the special features and that I might feel let down after seeing them. I worried for nothing! Not only did they meet my expectations, but they exceeded them greatly."
"There's lots of fabulous content for Potter fans of all ages here with extensive interviews, as well as games and challenges. Much of the content we've heard before, but there's more than enough new material and insights to keep fans going. The Marauder's Map theme works well, and makes it easy for users to move around the different areas."
"...Even with emphasis on the climax, the whole story from Lupin and Black to Harry is rushed. If ever a movie needed an extended home edition, this is it."
"...The tone, mood, and atmosphere in number three are so much more imaginatively serious, even Hogwarts and its surroundings look and feel different... What's more, the three young leads have matured and become better actors, delivering more authoritative and realistic performances."
"The Prisoner of Azkaban is a darker film, more European and sophisticated in its story-telling, while at the same time preserving the idiosyncrasies that make Harry and his pals so adored."
"Gone are the warm, bright colours found in the two earlier films, Alfonso Cuaron brings in a bleak and cold feel that is simply gorgeous - and looks even better here than in the cinema."
"Although containing a fun collection of extras for fans, this DVD is aimed at the younger crowd. There is no commentary with the actors or producers etc. over the film and it would be nice to have one of those big hour-long documentaries on the making of the movie but this DVD is still very entertaining and a beautiful addition to your 'Harry' library."
"Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is a wonderful new chapter in the Potter series. It builds on everything established in the previous films as well as adding a few cool new characters, creatures, and locations. If you liked the first two movies, you'll love this sequel."
