Read the books...

Rating: 6/10 (31 January 2007)

The parts from the book that were actually in it were quite well done. Sadly, those were quite few. By skipping vital parts of the book, the next movie will be skewed and the story line will not flow. For example, Rita Skeeter in the novels, is an unregistered animagus and that is how she is getting all kinds of insider information about Harry and that whole part is left out. Another example is the maze. Compared to the books, it was horribly boring. There is a sphinx, the world turns upside down and there are many other obstacles that get left out of the film. The Beauxbatons students were all wrong! There are boys who come with the girls to the school. Also, you almost never see them go to class and they showed only minutes of the Quidditch World Cup and did not show Winky (Barty's Crouch's house elf) with Harry's wand Another thing they left out was Hermione's founding of the Organization "SPEW". I was outraged and furious by all the mistakes and omissions in this film!
