THIS IS THE MOMENT HARRY POTTER STOPPED FEELING LIKE A KIDS MOVIE. Harry Potter: Prisoner of Azkaban Full Length Watch Along & Early Access: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects - HARRY POTTER and the Sorcerer's Stone Reaction: https://youtu.be/EsyVBHr-UN0 - HARRY POTTER and the Chamber of Secrets Reaction: https://youtu.be/KmQxlzLRu34 Gift Someone (Or Yourself) An RR Tee! https://shorturl.at/hekk2 Roxy Striar & Jon Maturan react to Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban, including the shocking truth about Sirius Black, Professor Lupin’s werewolf reveal, Harry learning the Patronus charm, Buckbeak’s rescue, and the movie’s massive time-turner twist ending. Roxy Striar & Jon Maturan dive back into the Wizarding World with their full reaction, recap, commentary, breakdown, analysis, and spoiler review of what many fans consider the best Harry Potter movie. Directed byAlfonso Cuarón (Children of Men, Gravity), Prisoner of Azkaban introduces a much darker and more cinematic tone to the franchise as Harry returns to Hogwarts while dangerous escaped prisoner Sirius Black closes in. Along the way, Harry encounters terrifying Dementors, uncovers secrets about his parents, and learns that not everyone is who they seem to be. The reaction especially focuses on the film’s horror-inspired atmosphere, the Dementor train attack, Lupin instantly becoming one of their favorite characters, the reveal that Scabbers is actually Peter Pettigrew, and the emotional twist that Sirius Black was innocent all along. Jon & Roxy also repeatedly praised the movie’s visuals, direction, and time-travel climax, calling it a major step up for the franchise. The film stars Daniel Radcliffe (Swiss Army Man, Weird: The Al Yankovic Story) as Harry Potter, Emma Watson (Beauty and the Beast, Little Women) as Hermione Granger, Rupert Grint (Servant, Knock at the Cabin) as Ron Weasley, Gary Oldman (The Dark Knight, Slow Horses) as Sirius Black, David Thewlis (Wonder Woman, Fargo) as Remus Lupin, Alan Rickman (Die Hard, Sweeney Todd) as Severus Snape, and Michael Gambon (The King’s Speech, Sleepy Hollow) as Albus Dumbledore. With darker storytelling, emotional revelations, and one of the franchise’s biggest twists, Prisoner of Azkaban completely changes the direction of Harry Potter going forward. #HarryPotter #PrisonerOfAzkaban #HarryPotterReaction #SiriusBlack #Lupin #WizardingWorld #MovieReaction #FantasyMovies #HarryPotter3 #reactionvideo 0:00 Checking Inn 01:44 Harry Potter and the Prisioners of Azkaban Reaction 01:20:22 Harry Potter and the Prisioners of Azkaban Review Follow *Roxy Striar* YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@TheWhirlGirls Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/roxystriar/?hl=en Twitter: https://twitter.com/roxystriar Follow *Jon Maturan* Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/jonmaturan/?hl=en Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

I feel like this reaction is a perfect representation of why Netflix (and other studios) have started over-explaning and repeating everything 😅

it's never explained in the movies, but the marauders' map was made by harry's dad, lupin, sirius, and peter... they're the marauders. that's how lupin knew what it was and how it worked. one of the coolest storylines that never got explained. Mooney (lupin), Wormtail (Peter), Padfoot (Sirius), Prongs (James - he was an animagus stag not a unicorn)

Lupin didn't know that Sirius didn't betrayed the Potters and like everyone else, he believed Sirius was in fact the murder of Pettigrew. He only discovered the truth after seeing Pettigrew on the map.

Inflating Marge was a case of accidental magic because he was so angry, not something he deliberately chose to do.
