I give a rating of 9.5 out of 10!

Yesterday was the second time I watched the film and seriously, this has got to be the film I couldn't get enough of! I take my hat off to Mike Newell for doing a brilliant job in the director's chair. Adapting a book that is the size of a house brick into a 150 minute movie is no easy feat. About the script... Thank God! Ron has more important lines in this one. One can definitely see now that both Ron and Hermione are Harry's two best friends but Hermione still overshadows Ron a bit, in my opinion.

Daniel, Rupert and Emma were fantastic in their respective roles. Although I think Dan sounded a bit funny when he was crying over Cedric's body. During the Yule Ball scene, to me.. Ron didn't look too jealous of Krum. He did, don't get me wrong but the green-eyed monster wasn't too obvious. Emma was fabulous in the scene after the ball where she was especially mad at Ron. It was fantastic. Malfoy didn't really play a big role in this one and we didn't get to see much of him. Tom looks extremely good in black!! Heheheheh... But I absolutely adored the ferret scene. The Twins' were especially funny and I loved every bit of them in this one.

Brendan Gleeson was perfect as Prof. Moody and I'm glad we get to see a bit more of Prof. McGonagall in this one. In GoF, her role as vice-headmistress and Head of Gryffindor is more obvious than the other three movies. Alan Rickman was just too cute in this one, especially in the study hall where Ron tries to ask Hermione to the Yule Ball but finds out that she already has a date. Rita Skeeter, played by Miranda Richardson, was excellent. She did a great job as a nosy reporter although I wished she was exposed more in the film. Shirley Henderson was great in reprising her role as Moaning Myrtle. I love the way she teases Harry in the bathtub scene and how she made obvious her liking for Harry. Ralph Fiennes made an excellent Voldemort. I liked the way he teased Harry about duelling. He was almost unrecognisable but who could forget those eyes. Anyway, he played the role convincingly and I can't wait to see more of him in the future films.

Robert Pattinson was perfect for the role of Cedric Diggory, the other Hogwarts' champion, and so was Clemence Poesy as Fleur Delacour, the Beauxbatons' champion. But I sort of pitied Fleur's role as she was always seen as the weakest champion but nevertheless, she played her role uite convincingly. Robert was divine as Cedric, displaying confidence and charisma while still being the humble boy he is. Stanislav Ianeveski was a good choice for Viktor Krum. He did seem like someone who, to quote Prof. Moody in the film, who's head was filled with sawdust. Quite convincing, I must say. Katie... Ah Katie... I expected too much for Katie but I don't really blame myself not to. Cho Chang's character has been publicised as Harry's first crush. Well, now it seems like her character's too overrated. She only appears a bit in the film and did not make a big impact on screen. If it wasn't for her role that was so well publicised, Katie would have been easily forgotten. I thought she'd do better after having much pressure from the fans to do well but I guess not.

I must say, I absolutely love the music in this one. It seems like the music gets better and better with every film. I especially love The Weird Sisters. Kudos to the rockers who made The Weird Sisters seem like a real rock and roll band. I am amazed with how the movie was set. It was all dark and gloomy most of the time, making it obvious that this film isn't going to be so 'magic is so fun and cool' anymore. However, the movie was too rushed. I still say that Mike Newell did a great job adapting the book but I can't help but feel that there are some scenes that were left unexplained. Like the Neville scene inside the DADA class and the Priori Incantatem scene was a bit too blur, really. Someone who hasn't read the books wouldn't really know what a Priori Incantatem is. I felt that the Quidditch World Cup scene was a rushed too. But nevertheless, it was an excellent introduction of Viktor Krum.

The creatures of the deep were seriously creepy and the graveyard scene was mad. The Death Eaters, Voldemort rising again.. it was just so scary. I can't believed it's still rated U (meaning everyone, even kids, can watch it freely) in my country. Trust Malaysia's crappy censorship board to rate a movie properly... Sigh. I mean, c'mon! It was brutal!! The way Wormtail just cut his hand like a piece of meat... Geeez!! Anyway... The Yule Ball scene, I thought, was stretched a bit too long. It was nice to see the Great Hall looking different and the dance they did was cute. I think that the tasks were set to easy. It seems like it gets easier by the task, meaning the First task.. the dragon, was the most difficult to get through. The second was a bit too easy and the third well.... Although it may seem scary at first but magical creatures would've been better than hedges attacking you and swallowing you whole. Besides, Harry got to the cup too easily.

I think that GoF is the best film yet. Although I didn't really like the missing presence of SPEW which would've caused a big disagreement between Ron and Hermione. I also didn't like Hermione's dress, although it did look good on Emma, and the fact the Patil twins' were in the same house. But hey, what are you gonna do? The movie turned out great anyway so cheers to everyone who's worked on producing such a wonderful film. I'm definitely going to watch this one in the cinemas again and again.
