My Review:

The fourth movie in the series, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire follows Harry and his friends Ron and Hermione into their 4th year at Hogwarts Academy. They’re more grown up now, at age 14, and the movie certainly is, too. This is the first Potter film to be rated PG-13, and it is a rating that is well placed. It’s more dark, more serious, more heavy than the previous three films. And there’s more violence. The characters are just as rich, and there are a few humorous moments – but overall this is much more of a drama than a comedy. Great story-telling, and the actors are wonderful. It does help if you’ve seen the other films, there is a lot of back-story where it makes it much more enjoyable if you know what went on previously. Looking forward to the next one!
