Product: Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
Rating: 5.0
not for children
With this fourth movie we get as good an adventure as we got with the third one and some - just some - of the spirit of the book back as well.The plot has been altered a lot again but at least we are given a satisfactory rendition of the cruel, dark atmosphere of the book. So dark in fact that the film is not suitable for younger children.I will not discuss details further: this movie is well scripted, well directed, well filmed and very well acted, thoroughly enjoyable.Unfortunately much of the sharp edged sarcasm of the book gets lost here: Miranda Richardson is just great but the script turn the evil character of the book into a nosy and a little nasty reporter and there is not a lot she can do about this.This is true for nearly every character. Watch the film for the fun of it forgetting the book while you do it so that you can enjoy both of them.
