It sounds bizarre, but there are actually some films sequels that are better than the original film

Watching films can always lift someone's mood. Some films make such a mark that the heart desires to see more of the story and wonder how it progresses. Many films get sequels due to the immense popularity of the story or the money it makes at the box office. While more often than not, the sequels are not as good as the original film or can't capture the same essence, you would be surprised to know that some sequels do better than the original one. Here we will list out some film sequels which did better than the original ones, and you decided for yourself while watching them…

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban (2004)

Starting off with a classic, some may say that Harry Potter films are for kids, but this particular movie was where the series became darker and showed off the real essence of the stories. The Prisoner of Azkaban can be a movie in itself. It was so well made. While most of the earlier movies handled the childish side of the actors and the story, this film became iconic for giving a clear pathway to the next set of films.

The Dark Knight (2008)

Another absolute classic; this one is probably one of the best Batman films in the entire series. While Batman Begins is not a bad film, The Dark Knight takes the cake in every sense. From story to the acting to direction, the film became a favourite with the audience and did wonders at the box office.

Skyfall (2012)

With several James Bond films, we have seen many actors step into the shoes of agent 007. However, Skyfall was the film that set Daniel Craig as James Bond and well, the rest is history. While almost every James Bond film has been fantastic, this one had the perfect amount of action and also a lot of stories!

Before Midnight (2013)

We have to end the list with a classic romantic movie, of course. The Before series is known for being epic when it comes to love stories. While the first in the series was good, the Before Midnight film is so well made and touches the heart incredibly!
