Movie Reviews of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Widescreen Edition) (Harry Potter 4)
Movie Review: How can you Apparate that far off!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
Why do I even hope any more. this movie is just the same as the third one except with a different story and a new director to blame. GET THIS IN YOUR HEAD YOU CANNOT MAKE A MOVIE WITH JUST SPECIAL EFFECTS. This movie left so much out agin including Hermione's fledgling organization S.P,E,W, I wouldn't have minded this because Hermione's annoying but it seems the makers are so dicriminate of house elves that they have excluded them from the movie with Dobby's contribution to the story replace with Neville. The Yule Ball was awful with a short dance sequence and no reference to giants. Rita Skeeter has short appearences but they seem to have no effect on the story except making Hermione angry and there was nothing about her being an Animagus which was a needed point for the next movie. Sirius also has very little screen time only being a bunch of coals talking because the directors want to purposely overcomplicate things as to show off their wonderful special effects. The story again goes too fast excluding the Quidditch World Cup scene which introduced Viktor Krum. Actually it seems like the makers are being lazy and excluding Quidditch purposely just to give their poor animators a break so they can focus on making coals form a face and having spell fights. Now it seems like Dumbledore has transformed from a wizened wizard to a child molestor as he takes Snape's line and cue's and makes them his. The parts of the story that are excluded are mentioned instead of actually shown, clever I think not! don't get me wrong the book was excellent but it seems like they just want to show you one part and then the other and as someone mentioned before, if you blink you'll miss something. Anyways again I'm dissapointed, GET IT RIGHT PEOPLE. Another two hours of my life I'll never get back!

Summary of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Widescreen Edition) (Harry Potter 4)
When Harry Potter's name emerges from the Goblet of Fire, he becomes a competitor in a grueling battle for glory among three wizarding schools - the Triwizard Tournament. But since Harry never submitted his name for the Tournament, who did? Now Harry must confront a deadly dragon, fierce water demons and an enchanted maze only to find himself in the cruel grasp of He Who Must Not Be Named. In this fourth film adaptation of J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter series, everything changes as Harry, Ron and Hermione leave childhood forever and take on challenges greater than anything they could have imagined.The latest entry in the Harry Potter saga could be retitled Fast Times at Hogwarts, where finding a date to the winter ball is nearly as terrifying as worrying about Lord Voldemort's return. Thus, the young wizards' entry into puberty (and discovery of the opposite sex) opens up a rich mining field to balance out the dark content in the fourth movie (and the stories are only going to get darker). Mike Newell (Four Weddings and a Funeral) handily takes the directing reins and eases his young cast through awkward growth spurts into true young actors. Harry (Daniel Radcliffe, more sure of himself) has his first girl crush on fellow student Cho Chang (Katie Leung), and has his first big fight with best bud Ron (Rupert Grint). Meanwhile, Ron's underlying romantic tension with Hermione (Emma Watson) comes to a head over the winter ball, and when she makes one of those girl-into-woman Cinderella entrances, the boys' reactions indicate they've all crossed a threshold.
But don't worry, there's plenty of wizardry and action in Goblet of Fire. When the deadly Triwizard Tournament is hosted by Hogwarts, Harry finds his name mysteriously submitted (and chosen) to compete against wizards from two neighboring academies, as well as another Hogwarts student. The competition scenes are magnificently shot, with much-improved CGI effects (particularly the underwater challenge). And the climactic confrontation with Lord Voldemort (Ralph Fiennes, in a brilliant bit of casting) is the most thrilling yet. Goblet, the first installment to get a PG-13 rating, contains some violence as well as disturbing images for kids and some barely shrouded references at sexual awakening (Harry's bath scene in particular). The 2 1/2-hour film, lean considering it came from a 734-page book, trims out subplots about house-elves (they're not missed) and gives little screen time to the standard crew of the other Potter films, but adds in more of Britain's finest actors to the cast, such as Brendan Gleeson as Mad-Eye Moody and Miranda Richardson as Rita Skeeter. Michael Gambon, in his second round as Professor Dumbledore, still hasn't brought audiences around to his interpretation of the role he took over after Richard Harris died, but it's a small smudge in an otherwise spotless adaptation. --Ellen A.
