| | |  Even more 'Goblet of Fire' reviews
Two more reviews of ' Goblet of Fire', this time from Jonathon Ross and The Manila Times. Jonathon Ross: Quote:
It's a mark of the fact that my children are growing up fast, while I resolutely refuse to mature, that I was more excited than them at the prospect of another Potter picture.
Quote:
Paring down an extremely long, possibly unwieldy book to a manageable duration that is paced to near-perfection, this is the strongest film in the series so far.
Quote:
Ralph Fiennes has never looked more handsome than he does when bringing to life the full-on villainy of Lord Voldemort.
The Manila Times: Quote:
Unlike the first two movies, this fourth opus has a lot of adrenaline, which come spiced with a dose of **** elegance. It’s never too reverent to the material and it never counts down to a climax—it just happens and nobody has to wait.
Quote:
The Triwizard tournament is thrilling and the great visual effects don’t overwhelm the heart of the story. Despite the comedy, there are wonderfully poignant scenes as Potter copes with having to grow up. The numerous hurdles, however, tend to dilute the threat of Voldemort though he does manage to bring back Harry’s grief and torment.
Quote:
Newell also gets a fine performance out of Daniel Radcliffe, who makes the role of a lifetime all his own. Radcliffe acquits himself well in two heartbreaking scenes and for the first time, he’s on an equal level with the distinguished adult cast.

 If Ross says it's good then it's gonna rock!! His is the only review I'm paying attention to at the moment. It's now official that GoF will rule. | |

I love HP! You what? *mouth drops* I want to go tooooooo!!! Can you take me? Okay, anyways, it's awesome to know that those people liked the film 
__________________ I gotta go back to the muggle world,
they're gonna try and tell me this wasn't, that none of this happened,
but you know what? It was real. It did happen.
We spent time here. We made friends here. That's a part of us.
Cause Hogwarts is bigger than any of us, of any of it's founders,
and it's going to be around long after we're gone.
Maybe we'll see our kids come here one day.
That's the thing about Hogwarts.
No matter how long you're away from it, there's always a way back. | |

Cool! GoF sounds funnier than the other ones, humorous kind of funny, not strange kind of funny). That's a good thing, I guess. Only a couple more days till it comes out!

I havent read anyof the other reviews because they just spoil things. So I had someone check this one out before I read it.
So far,great reviews like I expected ! Not that I trust these things but the rest of the world who never paid attention to HP...has no choice now!
Ralph Fiennes looking handsome playing Voldie...what are they trying to say...lol,he's okay looking in real life....or did I read that wrong. *I'm just Kidding!*
