Harry Potter is a young boy who is continuing his third year of schooling at Hogwarts and not only does he have a new "Defense Against the Dark Arts" teacher but there is lots of trouble brewing. A convicted murderer has escaped the Wizard's Prison and is said to be coming after Harry. Harry's hero birth came into place in the first movie when he was told he was a Wizard. Not only was he just a Wizard, but he was "the boy who lived". He was the only person who overthrew the powers of Lord Voldemort, he survived because of his mothers love and was left with only a scar on his forhead.
Throughout the movie Harry has many quests along his journey. It first begins when Harry becomes very angry at his aunt and accidentally uses magic outside of Hogwarts to make her float away. Harry is then fed up with living with the Dursley's and packs up items and leaves the house during the middle of the night. He is left alone on the streets and has to find his way to shelter. The night bus soon picks him up and finds him a place to stay for the night. Soon after he is on his way to Hogwarts when the Dementors of Azkaban raid the train for sirius black. Since Harry has seen genuine horrors in his past he is more vulnerable to the Dementors. Because of this, Harry hears his mothers screams and then faints. This problem with the dementors continuously reappears throughout the film. For example, it appears during a Quidditch match and Harry is knocked off his broomstick mid game.
Having this vulnerablilty made Harry want to learn the Patronus charm which is used to get rid of dementors. Harry works on mastering this charm with Lupin for quite a while.
Next, Harry's classmates go on a trip to the local village, Hogsmade, but Harry cannot attend because his Uncle Vernon would not sign the permission form. This is when Fred and Goerge Weasley give Harry the Marauder's map.
After the excecution of Buckbeak, a large black dog attacks Ron and drags him into a tunnel under the whomping willow, which leads to the Shrieking Shack.
Lastly, in the Shrieking Shack Harry finds out that Peter Petegrew is Ron's rat, Sirius is innocent and Lupin is a wearwolf. Once they all exit the Whomping Willow they realize the full moon has come out and Lupin, unwillingly, turns into a wearwolf. Sirius then fights the wearwolf in order to keep the children safe. After the fight sirius is badly injured and wanders down to a pond to die. Harry follows him to find the dementors about to suck out his soul. Harry, knowing the partonus charm, uses it to get rid of the dementors but cannot succeed because there is just too many of them. They are saved at the last minute by a strange figure using the Patronus Charm, which Harry believes to have been cast by his father. Harry then passes out.
Harry's Impossible task begins when he awakens in the castle to learn that Black has been captured. To save him, Harry and Hermione use the Time-Turner to travel back in time and prevent his captured. To save him, Harry and Hermione use the Time-Turner to travel back in time and prevent his capture. Harry and Hermione rescue Buckbeak and re-watch the scenes of the night, until they see the Dementors cornering Harry and Sirius. Harry is determined to see who sent the Patronus, only to realise that it was himself. This puts him in the position of using what he has learned and his power in order to save himself and sirius. Harry succeeds and Sirius is rescued and flees on Buckbeak.
Harrys return home consits of him and Hermione rushing to get back into the hospital wing where they first went back into time, before it reaches 7 o clock. On there way into the hospital wing they run into Dumbledore who is just leaving. Since Dumbledore just left the hospital wing, where they were, they had to make up an excuse as to why they managed to get into the hall. Once they get to ron and tell him everything that happened, they had to find a way to convince all the Professors.
Harry's reward is that he gains a "father". well, a godfather. He builds a relationship with his godfather and is offered a home to stay for the summer, instead of with the Dursleys. He also gains information about his parents that he never knew.
and lastly, Harry's romantic element. Throughout the movie there is a small amount of romance between Harry and Hermione although it is not touched upon alot. As well a romantic element would be the relationship that Harry builds with Sirius. It is not a romance but it is surely a strong father-son like relationship.
A hero is defined as a man of distinguished courage or ability, admired for his brave deeds and noble qualities. Harry Potter is the greatest hero of all time because he is courageous when it comes to putting his life on the line for others, is gracious and humble when it comes to praise and thinks only of the safety of others when it comes to dangerous situations. In Harry Potter and the Prisonr of Azkaban Harry put Serious' life first when it came to the dementors at the pond. He took every risk possible in order to save Serious and Buckbeak and never thought twice about what it could do to his future at hogwarts. Harry is always modest when it comes to fighting or protecting someone. He never feels like he is the strongest or the best, but when hes the only one around he has the strength, courage and ability to fight on his own to win battles. He also doesn't let everyones praise and worship get to his head. Lastly, Harry makes sure he risks his life or his furture before anyone else risks theirs. In conclusion, Harry Potter is the greatest movie hero due to his courageousness, humbleness, and his ways of putting other first.
