Review of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005) by Samx. — 31 Mar 2006

Let me start off by saying that the film in no way follows the book, and that to me this isn't really a bad thing because I hated the book as well. But, instead of adhering to the overhyped book's many followers, the director has managed to cut out half the book and fill it in with fast paced action.

The atmosphere the film has has been pilfered straight out of the LotR trilogy, and the musical score was absolutely horrible. For someone who hasn't read the books it would seem confusing and shallow because there doesn't seem to be much of a story, unless a reader fills you in on all the gaps in the plot (of the book) that the film misses out.
