Save your Money

Rating: 4/10 (18 November 2005)

I went to see Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire this morning and was very disappointed. What there was of the book that made it into the book was excellent. The movie bears very little resemblance to the book. The 3 tri-wizard tasks were featured to the exclusion of almost all else. The house elf line in the story was left out altogether. There is a brief scene or two at the world quidditch championship but for the most part the early chapters are pretty much ignored. This movie would have been much better had it been 4 hours and included most of the important stuff from the book rather than leave it out and making the movie a hollow shell of the book. Save your movie watch it on DVD.
