Azkaban film was 'boring'

CBBC Press Packer Katy, 14, from London, thought the film 'Prisoner of Azkaban' was boring. Amongst other things, she claims Lupin was geeky. I was under the impression that Lupin was in fact the intelligent one of the marauders, but he certainly was not geeky, just being a teacher!

Here is some of what she thought. Read the rest of it here.

Quote:
I imagined Lupin to be a cool guy and quite funny but his character was really geeky in the film.*

Quote:
Too much time was spent concentrating on Hermione and not Harry Potter.*

Quote:
The only way Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban is linked to the book is via the names of the characters.*

I found it anything but boring. It was exciting the see the proper scenery. I also thought Sirius and Lupin were exactly in character, as I had imagined. I do agree on the Hermione comment though, I did feel she seemed to be focused more on than Harry, especially when she claims she trusted Lupin - it would have made more sense to have Harry say that as he trusted Lupin to teach him to rid himself of the torment of the dementors and Hermione and Lupin never really had any time alone, for her to trust him for any special reason other than for a teacher/pupil relationship.
