Looks as if its boffo boxoffice numbers for a certain four eyed wizard with scar on his forhead. Yes, it's Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire making bank this weekend. And of course I had watched it. And it was disappointing. The reviews lead us to believe that it was dark and a good rendition. I didn't think it was. A death doesn't make it dark. And it is not as good as the previous Potter movie.
I was somewhat bored. At least, I knew the story and where it's going which kept me up.
3 of 5 stars.
And seeing the movie, I had to read Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince. And it was good. Very good. I am waiting for the last one. And I can't wait. Rowling has basically abandonned the school story line. Harry going to Hogwart's only as a prop to do his stuff. It has become more interesting and a little bit more mature. No longer concerned with daily school chores, Rowling has focused on telling the story. And what a story! The plotting in the last 3 books (from goblet of fire, order of the phoenix and half-blood prince) is very tight. She has weaved a very interesting story and the twists and turns are very hard to see. Yes, you all know that AD bites it, but that Horcrux twist was amazing. The only thing is that she kind of gets you confused when she has to describe a battle.
A+
