Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

I went and saw this movie last night and I have to say that I am very happy with it. Having read the book I can honestly say that they did a very good job with keeping as true to the book as possible. This is an improvement over the last movie, which was different from the book from almost the first minute. I was very impressed with how they portrayed “Mad Eye”, as he was almost exactly as I had pictured him. This is also the first movie where we get to see Lord Voldemort as he is now, and the scene of his “rebirth” was also very true to the book. The movie is considerably abridged, but that is to be expected when a book becomes a movie. I have also already heard some people complaining that this movie is “too dark” and not suited for children. Well there is a reason that the movie is rated PG-13, and had people read the book they would have known that it is dark. In any event, I am looking forward to seeing this movie again when it comes to DVD as I know I will be purchasing it. The only thing left to do now is wait until 2007 for Order of the Phoenix to be released in theaters.
