REVIEWS FOR HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE
Chapter four in the boy-wizard franchise, and still no good scenes, interesting characters, or true imagination
Sep 1, 2009
Followers of the series will find a more mature Harry and a more mature style, less sugary but not actually drier than the previous films.
Apr 3, 2009
Like a fine wine, Harry Potter continues to improve with age as each succeeding film version of Rowling's books seemingly surpasses the last.
Jan 15, 2008
Finally we're seeing Harry (the character and the series) grow up.
Jul 14, 2007
The action in Goblet of Fire is more exciting and faster-paced than in previous Potter films, and visually, it is by far the most splendid.
Mar 1, 2007
This new story starts off as just another adventure, more or less, but by the end, the situation faced by its protagonists has become much darker, and much more dire.
Sep 28, 2006
Never feels anything other than a single thread of a larger narrative.

The grim tone feels overwrought but, in [Mike] Newell's hands, and in those of his cast and screenwriter's, the movie remains dramatically solid
Aug 26, 2006
It’s refreshing that Potter 4 aspires to be a paranoid thriller rather than yet another detective mystery. House points, too, for the movie's terrific effects and considerable charm.
Apr 1, 2006
The series is now being treated as it should be, with the right mix of magic, danger, and drama, without watering anything down just so a younger audience can be snagged.
Mar 21, 2006
Anything but a disappointment. Even if it doesn't achieve the lyrical enchantment of Prisoner of Azkaban, it nonetheless makes good on Rowling's darker turn in the series.
Mar 18, 2006
...the Potter movie series has not only not run out of steam but appears to be getting better as it goes along.
Feb 21, 2006
Goblet is deliciously dark, wickedly funny and superbly mounted.
Feb 9, 2006
In the book this is a wholly engrossing story -- an epic tale of good and evil and loss and yearning. Transported to the screen, however, it has sustained a few dinks and dents.
Feb 7, 2006
It's too episodic, relying on action rather than emotion. The pace is headlong, so that the characterisation suffers.

The film’s quick pace and near-constant action carries you along quite nicely.
Jan 9, 2006
So bloated and joyless that it makes one pine for the bland mediocrity of Chris Columbus.
