I am a very big harry potter fan and i must admit I'm not much into the movies, although I really enjoyed the 3rd one. I was really hoping to see something fantastic in this movie, because it had the story of the fourth book, which is in my opinion the ultimate one from the series. but I was disappointed to the maximum!!!! why?? because it's nothing like the 4th book!!!!!!!! for god's sake, even Hermione's dress was pink when it was blue in the book! they just took the major and general lines of the story, like harry, Hogwarts, the Triwizard Tournament, Durmastrang & Beauxbatons, 3 challenges, Cedric dead and Voldy comes back! and that's about it!!it goes much too quickly from one action, one bump in the road to another and for those who haven't read the books, it will be awfully hard to understand something! I didn't even notice when i was standing in front of the first task! it all happened too fast!things are totally different and they didn't follow the book AT ALL!!!! after stating so many times that they tried to be loyal to the book, i thought they really had been....well...i was wrong! i have 2 major discontents that bugged me through the movie!!1. Ludo Bagman doesn't appear at all....and he was a rather charming and important character in the book. 2. Michael Gambon does a poor, a very poor job....he didn't understand Dumbledore's character at all! Dumbledore is supposed to be calm, rational, not impulsive and yelling at students that Cedric is dead or to harry whether he put his name in the goblet of fire! and Dumbledore is surely not supposed to be this wacko genius who sits on the floor and talks to harry about very important stuff! god...if that was indeed Dumbledore in the book, i would've been happy when he died in the 6th one!!! But it's not!!!! Dumbledore is the guardian, the best wizard alive, the only one who can protect harry against Voldy and he shouldn't be yelling or spitting life theories on the floor!! i hate Michael Gambon for transforming the character into such a loser, literally, i wish they had a chosen another actor! so, as a conclusion, you should go to the cinema and see it, but don't have high expectations, like i did! it will only get you down ever worse!
