disjointed, worst so far.

Rating: 5/10 (2 January 2006)

Lets face it, the movies are catering for the non-readers so lets get rate the movie and not the book.
of course Dumbledore had to start being mean to Harry in this movie because Dumbeldore treats harry badly in The Order of the Pheonix so they had to start introducing that attitude now.
I do believe however that this movie has caused big problems for the next director, How will the next director deal with Rita Skeeters role as an animagnous being blackmailed by Hermione? as Rita was never exposed at the end. This means that Luna Lovegrove will be of little importance.
Harry does not start off at the Durseys like he does in the book so non-readers might get a bit confused in the next movie when he's back there. How will the next director deal with that? Hagrid does not expose himself as half giant so will the next movie have Hagrids giant brother in it? I think that the character development was a bit poor. Moody, of course lacked in cleverness. Krum is made out to be a bit of a sport thug and Fleur looses all of her charm.
All these poor representations of the characters could have easily been avoided.
the Story is well; i think a bit disjointed, it's hard to fit such a long complicated story into two and a half hours but i do believe they made some wrong decisions about what to leave out and what to put in. The crush that harry has on Cho is really subtle in the book, and yet they made it into a big deal. and yet the left out things that are vital for our non-reading friends like hagrid being half giant, the durseys and Reeta Skeeter as an animagnous. these would only take two seconds to put in but they ditched them to make room for insignificant things like an extra long ball scene or dragon scene.
Did the director even read the other books?? because he misjudged the importance of some of the overflowing story lines which, are not so important now but turn into important things which will just have to pop out of nowhere.
by the way did anyone find the first scenes in the stadium really cheap?
