Anton:Russia; Sochi

Rating: 8/10 (2 March 2010)

You know, maybe after all this review will be neutral. On the one hand - in the film has everything to please, especially fans series, for which any occurrence of four-eyes with a scar - a holiday. On the other hand - in the film have been alarming trends that are unfortunately only amplified in the following films. And because he was obviously weaker than the Prisoner of Azkaban.
Still, try to adhere to objectivity.
Book Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Rowling has traditionally been longer than the previous books. Do not just longer - it covers far more events, new characters, locations. Actually, in my opinion, it was an order of magnitude more difficult. Through the whole book is the idea of growing up - Harry and his friends are no longer children, teenagers and solve problems. This is the eternal themes of love and friendship - in the context of approximation of terrible evil.
New film was directed by Michael Newell.
Plot.
Already in the process of working on the film Newell repeated the obvious many fans - the book is too large for one film adaptation of one, so that the "superfluous plot lines will be cut out.
In fact, the problem of course was a titanic. It was necessary to meet the exact Dynamics of between action-scenes (on the Quidditch World Cup, Triwizard Tournament) and a lot of "boring" (philosophical, intelligent) scenes where the characters reveal the characters and their motivations.
And I love potter kill me, I can not say that Newell handled. Pomo, chasing after two hares, Michael was unable to catch even one. The film is a shooter - but he is a lame (I do not know whether it is special effects, or just my personal delusion). But "boring" scenes cut a lot. As a result, motivation for the characters is unconvincing, and some plot lines were removed in principle.
For example, the film is essentially no relationship with Hermione Kramov on the ball ... But Ron was jealous of her, and that is what has caused the emergence of Lavender. And so - in the Cup of Fire is not romantic line with Kram, therefore it is not clear where in the mixed-bloods taken lavender.
From kino Harry Potter disappeared Percy Weasley. Of course he glimpsed in the episodes, but all writers have killed yet another excellent line. Percy - the prodigal son, a careerist who makes a career in the Ministry and worship of their superiors (starting with Crouch) all further moves away from his beloved family. It is interesting and very instructive line - but it is almost erased from kino potter.
Cut out a good part of the atrocities and explanations Barty Kraus ml. As a result, it appears an ordinary associate of Voldemort, but not crazy murderer of his father.
The result is somehow. And most importantly - someone not familiar with the books it would be really easy to get lost in what is happening on the screen. Heroes of the new lot, but distinct actions they have little.
Cast.
And then the movie looks good, only because once again, the key role entrusted to play an excellent actor.
One of the key roles was Brendan Gleeson (Alastor Grumiaux). I personally liked it. Fans certainly write, saying he was stout. Oh, and that - really aurora on pensions can not grow fat. But the image of a little insane veteran, having seen in his lifetime, almost all - were excellent.
Miranda Richardson in my opinion perfectly played local yellow journalist - Rita Skeeter. Pretty good casting for the role of champions - Pattison, Janevski and Posey (Diggory, Cram, Delacour) generally coped, although in my opinion Diggory lacks that aura of popularity, which is in the book. But maybe - this miscalculation writers, rather than acting.
Roger Lloyd Park and Pedzha Belak convincingly played Crouch and Karkarova respectively. Too bad their characters largely took much less time than it should.
David Tinnant generally good in the role of Barty Crouch Jr.. Not his fault that the writers have reduced his role to the level of small Voldemort follower.
Finally, in this movie the first time we saw another one, without a doubt the main character. Ralph Fiennes has shown us looks like Lord Voldemort, the man whom all feared, and not even pronounce his name.
Ahem ... honest its image leaves questions. Wash Voldemort trying to make a terrible terrible expense of the same appearance and voice. But he was not afraid of it. He is afraid of its own affairs, which he does without any emotion on his face, with a cold voice.
As always excellent Rickman and Gambon. Absolutely not understand the charge that Dumbledore's "made eccentric. Dumbledore just play more screen time than in the first part. And he is not just a mentor, who simply threw in the characters on the right decisions, and also gave moral at the end of the film.
I myself am from Russia, Sochi, we have the popularity of Harry Potter's different, but its site - http://www.potter-style.ru I am developing the popularity of Harry Potter. In general, based on the findings above, we can say that the movie is not bad. He was noticeably weaker than the Prisoner of Azkaban, but still coll (mainly expense bright scenes or scenes of the revival of the tournament Voldemort).
