What A Let-Down.

Rating: 3/10 (19 August 2005)

The buzz surrounding this movie was massive. The huge amount of A-List cameos was ever-growing. It was all so promising! And yet...it sucked.
The child actors are the worst part of the movie ("You mean to say..that person in the woods...that was Voldemort" - Say this line in a monotonous way, exactly the same as you deliver every other line, there you have Daniel Radcliffe). Emma Watson is the only half decent child actor here, yet compared to other child stars (Dakota Fanning, anyone?)she is rubbish. You actually see the 'trio' mouthing each other's lines along with each other. Heheh, quite funny really! The dialogue is laughable and all the darkness yet sly humour from the book is sucked out and replaced by cheap toilet humour.
Admittedly, the films are getting better as each one goes by, but I just pray Goblet Of Fire is good.
