Year three at Hogwarts means new fun and challenges as Harry learns the delicate art of approaching a Hippogriff, transforming shape-shifting Boggarts into hilarity and even turning back time. But the term also brings danger: soul-sucking Dementors hover over the school, an ally of the accursed He-Who-Cannot-Be-Named lurks within the castle walls, and fearsome wizard Sirius Black escapes Azkaban. And Harry will confront them all.

Reviews
The worst thing about prison was the Dementors!
My favorite book and my favorite movie in the series. The twists! The turns! The Dementors! Alfonso Cuarón shifted the tone noticeably from the first two. This one feels less like a kids movie and more like a movie with kid protagonists.
