If I were evil and totally deranged. I'd go for her. But as it stands...no.

Anyway, I loved the actor, she was really talented, and even the part where she's sliding back into the fireplace was simply perfect.

Did I like the acting? Yes, it was very well done

Did I like the character? No, and I never will. Call it biassed hate, because I hate her for killing Sirius who happens to be my favourite character.

i loved her acting, she was scary, but beautiful at the same time. i didn't imagine her like that, but she did match up to the character in the book.

i say she was perfect. Scary, evil, and crazy at the same time, she was excellent and I loved her laugh! When she slide into the fireplace thats was awesome it just looked so sweet! But she did look rather cracked-up. I personally would never want to be locked up in Azaban, if I would come out looking like that! lol

Helena was a good choice for the role. But honestly, with just a couple of exceptions, I think they have done one of the best jobs of extended casting in film ever.

She was okay, but I think they over-did it with the whole "she's evil" thing, and that made her seem crazy instead of just evil. And I couldn't stand her hair. The actress who played her was really good, though.

She was perfect for her role, a deranged, nut job who was absolutely obsessed with being evil.

And she looked just crazy enough to be Bellatrix...but I don't think she needed to display as much cleavage as she did Sick

I thought they cast a great Bellatrix. That's how I had her pictured in my mind when I read the 5th book.

that's just alittle bit freaky.

but it does kind of give you the reason why Voldemort likes her best....

HBC > All, I was so excited when I found out she'd gotten the role. She was underused, but still fantastic. I've heard that she has alot more face time in some cut scenes, so at the very least we'll see more crazy "b" in the dvd extras.

If anyone who has any influence actually reads these forums (I know they don't, but ...) please please please put those scenes back into the movie for the dvd.

I did think the actress was perfect. And I agree she didn't have enough scenes...but please put alittle more clothing on Shocked

I loved her acting, especially the part where it shows her screaming in Azkaban chained up Very Happy

The Bellatrix scene in Azkaban was probably the only scene I loved in the entire movie <3.

Exactly what I think. I loved Sirius and they made the movie even more heartbreaking by putting in the line about how Harry and him would be a real family soon. Crying or Very sad
