So...I'll go first.

9.5

Simply amazing. By far the best one made yet. I thought the visuals, the script, the actors, everything was brilliant. It is such a long book to turn into a movie so I understand why they had to move through the story so fast. But I think they did an amazing job. Fred & George were hilarious, as they should be! Daniel R. I think has improved loads since PoA. My biggest dislike would have to be Barty Crouch Jr. in the Riddle house. And Hermione's dress color. But that is pety. All in all it was GENIUS. Standing ovation for sure.

Thumbs up

I love Goblet Of Fire!


- 9.5 -

I could not agree more!

I was a bit affraid that Kloves would mess this one up, especially because of the size of the book, but I have to say he did a very good job!

Mike Newell - well done!!!

So I have only a few comments besides saying: Well done, indeed!

The music - I admit that I miss John Williams! To me it was not the same without him! I really hope and pray that he will be back for OotP!

Hermione - To me she sounded like she was near tears through the whole movie! However, my heart broke when Ron and her have a fight at the Yule Ball - I just wanted to hug her there (well done Emma Watson!)... Tsk tsk Ron!

There are of course things which they have cut out or did in another way but all in all this is the best of the HP movies so far!!!
Although I can't help but think if I love this movie so much because I have read the book (and therefore knows what things there perhaps should have been explained for example we do not get to know about the Marauders), or do I simply love it because my expectations were not that high given the fact that the book was so huge? Oooorrrr perhaps it was because I was sitting in a cinema were everyone loved the HP universe and had been looking forward to seeing this movie, and were cheering and clapping?

No matter I'm so happy I went to see the movie at 11.59 on the 17th Nov. because there were people dressed up, and there were people from a Danish HP site who walked around dressed up and handed out posters.

And the cinema had a Goblet Of Fire (just like the one in the movie) put up so one could walk around it and everything--it was very cool! It could have been fun if they had let us drop our names in it!


Just one last thing: Is it just me or does Kloves have something against endings? ...Especially the one in PoA and now GoF?

Because in GoF they kinda spread all the info we got in the Hospital Scene through out the movie (which is ok with me) but still no Hospital Scene (and therefore no Snape showing his DM and no Fudge and Dumbledore argument, although we do get the latter...)

9.5!

Definitely the best one yet! I still haven't recovered from watching it, I was so excited! I need to watch it again to really take it all in, and to fully understand it all.

There were several amazing scenes, that just took my breath away, like the first task, the quidditch world cup and Voldemort's return, WOW!!

Daniel has improved in so many ways as an actor, he was absolutely outstanding in this one! I really felt his pain during the scene where he brings back Cedric's body.. I admit, I cried like a baby!

Emma and Rupert also did fantastic jobs, I loved the end of the Yule Ball where she yells at him, that was absolutely perfect! I really felt so sorry for her, "You've ruined everything!" *sniff*

I don't miss him at all! I think Patrick Doyle did an amazing job, the music fit perfectly with the scenes and I can't wait to get my hands on the soundtrack! He's more than welcome back for OotP!

But, like you all mentioned, the movie wasn't perfect. At times it did feel rushed, and I felt like there were several key scenes missing. Like the whole Prior Incantatem thing, there was absolutely no explanation. I had to explain it all to my friend (who hasn't read the book of course). She didn't catch the whole Neville thing either, about his parents. I guess you must have read the book to catch that mentioning of them in the pensive.

Also the whole Dumbledore vs the Minstry thing was barely mentioned, how are they gonna get it all in the fifth??

Anyway, it was a truly amazing movie, and I'm definitely gonna watch it in the cinema a couple of more times! Great job Mike Newell and everyone else involved!

I also give it a 9.5

The only downside of it, it's was a little too rushed.

The QWC was amazing. I would loved to see some of the game, but that's just me

The tasks were incredible!! The maze was very scary and I loved it!

The grave yard scene, definetely my favorite!! Ralph rocks as Voldemort!! he was exactly as I imagined it. It was scary was it should be, and Proir Icantatem was awsome! Yeah, I would've liked some explination, but I imagine that putting a book that big into a 2 hour and 30 minutes movie, they had to take that and more away.

i give it a 9. one point off for taking out too much stuff and for being too rushed (but it's understandable)

i loved the movie, i loved how the actors have matured and how there's a whole dark and scary feel to it.

the quidditch world cup was dissapointing,for me. the first task was interesting..the whole deviating from the original way was fine. the second task was fantastic! i loved it! however, i am dissapointed with the 3rd task..wish there was more to it.

the ron/hermione thing didnt come out much,but still,it was fine. the ron/harry animosity was great! im dissapointed hagrid's story didnt make it. and i absolutely love the portrayal of voldemort! fiennes did an amazing job on him! i shrieked at the first view of voldy, and the whole time afterwards he had me spooked. i don't much like dumbledore in this movie, i think the whole "man-handling" of harry was extremely out of character.
barty crouch jr was great, karkaroff was good too. moody was disturbing.
and i hate to say this, but they should stop making harry cry in the movies. dan just hasnt got the crying thing down (in my opinion).

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.

I loved it!

I loved the dream and David Tennant! *dies quietly*. Hermione was a bit of a pain waking harry up! the world cup left me wanting more! the arrival of the champions great! Harry going into the room and Dumbledore shaking him was a bit OOC but still all good! i really liked the film. Rupert Grint was defenatly the best of the trio and after the fight with harry the word he says that is not his usual sware was sooo good!

Daniel suprised me he really did especialy at the end of the film when he was crying over Cedric moved me it really did... (most of the adults in the cinema were in tears)

Micheal Gambon growed on me totaly!

THe scene with Harry and Mertil was very funny and she stepped up her persuit of harry from beyond the grave!

THe tasks were great! the ball was ace! if not a bit short!

I missed Snape showing his mark when Barty jnr says " i'll show u mine if you show me yours" i really expected Snape to show his but it was for a cut on harry! boring!

i only really have two complaints about GOF...

Not enough Snape! the scens with Snape are great i mean Rickman is the bestest adult actor! but he isnt used well at all and we miss things that will be needed for OOTP!

that said Mad-eye was great and so was Voldemort although i didnt find the end very scary! i loved Lucius malfoys face though he looked like he was realy enjoying harry in pain!

Gambon is growing on me as Albus he is very tactile with harry in this film. I defenatly agree with Emma Watson overacting she really did but i wont take away form the fact that she is very beautiful at times in this film!

i give GOF 9/10

Need to see it again!

Ok, I posted on the other thread before it got locked, so I think I posted around 330am. But here goes:

I will give it a 9 out of 10.

The special effects are awesome, mind blowing in parts. The music is fine too. I think the acting greatly improved over the last one. This is by far, the best HP movie to date. However, if you are a huge fan of the book, you WILL be disappointed, simply based on the fact,of the large amount of content the movie left out. I walked away wanting more, and saying "how could they do that". The movie ws very rushed, and moved way too quickly from scene to scene. It did not do a very good job of explaining anything so that the moviegoer who has not read the book ..will be totally lost on key elements. The editing in my opinion was very choppy.
With all of that said....the twins were brilliant..really, by far-they stold the show. I laughed so hard at them, throughout the movie...and was surprised by how much I laughed. The scene where one of the twins asks Angela to the dance is hilarious. Mad-Eye Moody was fabulous..that part could not have been played any better. The graveyard scene was wonderful as well..it gave me goosebumps. I did think it was cut short a bit. Dan's emotional response, I thought, was believable, he pulled it off well. I really missed seeing Alan Rickman in this film..he is my fave. I agree, that the reaction of DD to Harry's being in the tournament was way too much over the top..DD would never react like that..it shocked me, and made me mad. The Pensieve scene was pretty good. I did not like any of the "additions" given to the movie, that were not in the book. I really missed the Dursleys scene, as I associate them with the beginning of every HP book/summer. The cutting of Dobby and Winky was also very much missed, how do you cut a chunk of the plot like that? ( I am worried for Kreacher) I also missed the Spew scene. The tasks were very well done, the creatures were fun to watch. I missed Mrs. Weasley, and the "she thinks Hermione & Harry are together thing, as a result of Rita" I very much wanted to see Charlie in this movie. Neville came across as too weird for me, this time around. I am sure I will think of more as I am going to see it again tomorrow....

Oh yeah, I knew I had forgotten to mention..the Quidditch World Cup was very disappointing...I would have so loved to see more of it. The Dark Mark scene was horribly disappointing to me, it left so much out, and for being such an important factor in the series of books..it was a bit of a let down. The Death Eaters marching reminded me too much of other racial haters in the world, and it was repulsive to me. Also, I totally think the one scene that was needed to kind of wrap up the movie towards the end, was the scene in the hospital wing....where everyone gathered to hear about Harry's ordeal and the coming of the Dark Lord...Also when DD tells Lupin and Snape what to do next..is an important lead into OotP...and I really think they should have referred to it, so basically, we get to "see" Snape set off on the task DD assigns him...Way too much was left out....And yes, I know it was a long book..but make the movie another 20 minutes longer....I doubt anyone would have minded.

definite 10!!! ... 100! lol

i loved every single part! but then i was a bit disappointed that the QWD was kinda short they barely showed much. =/ the acting has very much improved. Especially Harry Potter's acting! LOVELY. Voldemort was scary... he looked like one of those scary dudes from the LOTR movie (first or second. the ones with no noses! lmao)... The Weasly Twins were HILARIOUS and its good they got more exposure. The funny part was when they tried putting their names in the Goblet! lol and when they were in the class where Prof (whats-her-name-Transfiguration-teacher *sorry had a total mental block!!) and they were teasing Ron!

Hmm.. what else... The Yule Ball! wonderful! Hermione and Krum looked so CUTE together there! And Ron being all jealous was awesome too... I love the part where they fought and then Hermione ended up crying. That was REALLY good..

Sorry if my review was a bit sucky but Im going to have to watch the movie AGAIN. haha!

Oh and must I say, Harry and the bathroom scene? OH GOD. he was SHIRTLESS and I had a post-hypnotic-trance for a moment when I was watching that. Moaning Myrtle was kinda creepy... she seemed so horny. lol and Harry was freaked out! haha!

I loved the movie. I do agree it went by too fast. I would have loved to see more of the world cup. I mean the stadium looked amazing and the introduction of krum was awsome. The could have just made the movie a straight 3 hours to add missing things. Like Snape showing his dark mark. I wanted to see it when he barty said I'll show you mine if you show me yours. Also anyone who didn't read the book will get confused about Prior Incantatem. It just happens fast and there is no explanation. I was stunned when Cedric died. I knew it was going to happen right when they got there and it happened so fast. Dumbledore says he was murded by Voldemort but Pettigrew actually did it, he just told him to do it. He died so fast and I started to tear up a little. They came on seen then suddenly bright light and you hear Harry scream and hes gone. Its sad when Harry and Cedric get back. Harry is crying over Cedrics body and everyone starts cheering. Then Fleur screams then everyone else starts to realize Cedric is dead. I missed the Dursleys at the end. Waiting to pick Harry up. Mrs. Weasley hugging him, hermione kissing him on the cheek for the first time. lol That would have been an interesting scene with Ron. Also no snogging of Hermione and Viktor. I laughed so hard in this movie. The Twins were absolutely amazing. When everyone is learning to dance. Try saying that 5 times fast. Then they say it to each other back in forth whispered. I don't remember what it was but there were a lot of B's. lol I went Thursday night 12:01 showing. I didn't make it to school the next day. I wish I did go so I could talk about the film with friends. My mom said I was grounded because I said I would be up in time. I want to see it again, but my friend is going with her dad this weekend and her mom said she was grounded for being late to school. So I'll try and go with her. I want to see it again tonight though. Its hard to remember it all. It went by so fast its hard to remember all that happend. filch running into the hall was so funny. He was like half hopping. When Beauxbatons and Durmstrangs entered it was amazing. The Beauxbatons were all graceful, then it goes to durmstrang and there all loud. Viktor comes in last walking up with Karkaroff. All the actors were amazing in this film. Everyone improved greatly from the first film. Lilly also spoke to Harry telling him to let go in this film which was great. SPEW would have made another argument between Hermione and ron. After the ball when Hermione says you ruined everything to Ron was just brilliant. She yelled at Him and Harry to go to bed. At the end when The 2 schools leave is cute when Viktor comes to Hermione. It sounded like he said her name right and he gave her a note and said to write to him. Then he blows a kiss and walks away. Also it didn't show Rita skeeter as a beetle. Where Hermione catches her. It doesn't show Viktor talking very much, Hermione and Viktor do talk by the lake where he pulls the beetle out of here hair. I also missed all the creatures in the third task. i was waiting for it. Then it showed Cedric and Harry and the cup. It happend to fast. It was too easy to get to the cup. The dragon chase around the castle was brillint too. It looked like the dragon had actually got Harry when he bites at him. You would think Hermione would freak even just at first when she saw Viktor as they came up. His head was a shark. Viktor also like snapped at Harry when they were near Ron Hermione, Cho, and Fluers sister. Its hard to remember it all but snape hitting them in study hall was hilarious. I was laughing so hard. there was also a bit of drama into it. When Ron asks Hermione to the ball as a last resort. Then she says she has a date. then at the ball he thinks she is lying and is in her room crying. Then at the end of the Yule ball she says maybe next time you should ask me before someone else does and not as a last resort to ron. Hermione is crying or almost crying in this movie a lot. I would have like to see her and Viktor together more. Well if I remember anything else I would like to add I'll post agian I guess. Just me rambling off, have to talk abut it. So much to comprehend. Need to see it again. I only saw lilly when they came out of voldemorts wand and not James. I was more focused on her. when I watch it again I'll probably see a bunch of things I missed before since it went so fasr. Can't wait for the DVD to come out so I can watch it over and over again and not have to pay every time. i know like all the words to the third movie because I watched it way to much wanting more Harry Potter. I want to know every little thing that happens in the fourth book. Well I'll be off now but GOF is the best movie yet. The sixth book is the best and I bet I'll think the 7th is after it comes out. The books and movies just keep getting better. More and more action. This one just had a lot of action because of the Triwizard Tournament. Well Goodbye!

9.5!

This movie was amazing!
It was fast paced but told very well. They for sure got that Harry and Ron fighting thing down.

And the Yule Ball....awww...so much can be said about this! A lot of the stuff Ron and Hermione said was new and not in the book but I liked it because it all the lines were true to the characters. I thought the movie carried a lot of emtion that was left out of the other films.

I REALLY felt sorry for Hermione after the Yule Ball when she's crying on the staircase and it taking off her high heels. Personally, I thought Emma was more in character in this film than in the 3rd. She was using big words and being more of a smartypants. Though I could go without the pink dress, Emma did well!

Rupert...wow...he really has got Ron down! He's very moody...but it bothered me that he came off kinda too horny. I know that sounds rough but I guess he's just being a guy *eye roll* ..with that whole "busting out" line during dance practice and his zoom in on the Beax. girls' butts...
Still, I think Rupert was the best of the trio in this movie!
It sounded like he was about to ask Hermy to the ball...though he was trying to do it lightly...and him saying to Hermy that Krum was using her...wow! He's really jealous.
Aw.....I feel bad for Hermy again...she needs a hug.


Oh.I loved how Hermione got all shy and stuff whever Victor was around! lol!
Like when Krum's about to swim..she clearing her throat and pretending to be reading her book! Though I'm a huge R/Hr shipper, I thought Krum and Hermione were very cute together! I just love the fact we get to see a "new" Hermione. I've never seen her that way but I like it.

And the part where Krum blew her a kiss! lol Priceless!
I thought Dan's crying was better in this movie.
Fred and George we're soooo funny! *u trying saying that 5 times fast*

I loved the music. The lighting I LOVED in this film! I love the contrast between the sunlight and darkness. Th ending....they did it justice!

All in all, this film was action packed and had a lot more emotion and I'm for sure gonna see it again!

8.5 out of 10 I saw it a second time this morning, and it's better a second time round

Like others have said, it felt rushed and too much was cut out for my liking, but something had to give I guess. I would've loved to have seen more of the Quidditch World Cup, and don't get me started on the 3rd task.

The music was outstanding, more adult and fitted in perfectly with the dark change in storyline.

Hermione grated me in this one. I just felt like Emma overdone it just a touch. Having said that she does have some lovely scenes, like the Yule Ball.

I've fallen in love with the Twins! They had me, and everyone else, in fits of laughter, I'm glad they've gotton more exposure.

Oh, and I just knew Ralph would make a fantastic Voldemort!

All in all, a great movie, but it was frustrating in a few places.

10 out of 10, excellent film. The visuals and humour were the best yet. This film had a lot to live up to for me as it is my fave book. Mike Newell proved himself worthy of taking over the helm pity he's not doing the next. The only part that did dissapoint me was the Quidditch World Cup won't say why incase some haven't seen it yet. Ralph F was perfect for the part of Voldemort. Even though I am 29 and know the books inside out the graveyard scene still gave me the frights!!! Going next week to see it again!!

9.5

Deffinetly a very well made film. It was wonderful. Although I do wish the had add more of Hermione, but that is might be because she is my favortie character. I also wish they had added more shots of them actually learning instead of fighting all the time. I think the Yull Ball was great. Rupurt played his part of being jealous very well. The QWC was extrodinary! I think I'm going to have nightmares from Voldemort. That was awesome ,the whole graveyard scene. I cried when Cedric died and Dumbuldore did his "Remember Cedric Diggory" speech. I was so sad! But all in all, it was a great film. I will definetly go and see it again!

absolutely PERFECT!!!! SEEING IT AGAIN TONIGHT!!!!!! I'm just sad now cuz this movie is what I have been looking foward to all this time and now I've seen it. I would like to see more--have it continue and be like 7 hours long. I think I just need to see it about 8 more times and then I'll somehow be happy/satisfied. 20 out of 10. wonderful splendid I can't wait to see how much it's gonna make at the box office!!!!! wooohooOO!!!!!!!! Every seat in the theater I was in was filled---the whole day-all of the showings were sold out. I only saw about 5 kids and they were crying when it was over. I thought Voldemort looked kinda like an alien of some sort----EVERYTHING was perfect! MUST SEE IT AGAIN!!! I AM SO ESTATIC!!!
