I saw it yesterday, and it really is the best one of all, yet they... still... messed it up in some parts. Now I'll put the CONS of HP4, so you know what the expect for and not puke so much.
1) The first part of the movie, the "Muggle Lynching" scene, you could say, sucks. It was edited way too much, and it went from a gang of Death Eaters torturing a muggle family to Barty Crouch JR burning the tents... not a good change.
2)Don't get your hopes up... they don't show the Quidditch tournament.
3) The actor who plays Barty Crouch really sucks, I couldn't understand a word he was saying and he wasn't really what I saw in Barty Crouch, who was way more different than what they did in the movie.
4)GARY OLDMAN ROCKED! (In his 45 seconds of acting)
5) The actor who played Krum... yeah you guessed it, ********.
6) Emma Watson changed, and it wasn't exactly a good change.
7) They took all the monsters out of the Last Task's Maze, the Sphinx, EVERYTHING. It was just an always-changing maze.
8) Since there weren't any monsters in the maze, Harry doesn't learn any of the spells the teaches the others in the 5th book, so I don't know what they're gonna do in the 5th movie.
9) You guys know the whole Elf-slavery thing, and the prejudice with Winky, and Dobby bringing gillyweed to Harry? Yep, edited. There are no house-elves during this movie.
10) In the Quidditch World Tournament (or whatever it was called), you know how Harry gets lost and suddenly hears somebody conjuring the Dark Mark and BAM! there's Winky? In the movie they degraded it to Harry (being so distrophic) falling and the people who are running kicking him in the face and knocking him out, so he could wake up 30 minutes later in the same place, magically unseen by the Death Eaters, and looking straight at Barty Crouch JR conjuring the Dark Mark.
11)The actress who played the "hot and sexy" Cho?... not really.
12)The Beauxbatons and Durmstrang intros at the Great Hall were just plain stupid.
13) Karkaroff's parts in the book were almost totally removed.
14) Though they DO show Karkaroff's trial (which was good), they take out Bellatrix's... I WANTED TO SEE BELLATRIX.
15) How about a flashback scene about what happened to the Longbottoms? ...Nope.
16) As always, Daniel Radcliffe looks as if he had Down Syndrome.
17) They also don't put where he gives the winnings to Fred and George, so they can start the shop.
18) NO DURSLEYS. AT ALL.
19) MOLLY'S NOT THERE! Neither is Charlie, and the father's on the movie only at the beginning for a little while.
That being said, the movie wasn't too bad, Fred and George rock, they got the grave yard scene right (though there are only like 4 Death Eaters when Voldemort summons 'em.), they got Voldemort right, and they got Cedric and Fleur right.
The scene were Harry Returns from the graveyard was great. First the people don't even notice Cedric's dead, they're just clapping... then suddenly Fleur screams... Hagrid's expression changes, then they notice.
The scene with Karkaroff's trial, where he's saying all the names was great, 'cause he starts saying "Wait, wait! I have one more name, one person who was directly involved with the torturing by means of the Cruciatus curse, of the Longbottoms." then you can see Barty Crouch JR standing up and starting to go, Igor says his name, he starts to run, Moody's on top of him in an instant.
Moody wasn't that bad either, at first you're like WTF DID THEY DO TO HIS EYE!?!? But, he wasn't bad.
The actor who played Barty Crouch JR was good as well.
They got the dragons right!
Basically, though it is a good movie you sometimes get the feeling that it was made in a hurried way, some scenes that would've been awesome and that wouldn't've took so long where not even included.
The most "hurried" parts are both the beginning and the ending. I swear I almost puked at how they messed up the Death Eaters at the World Tournament and stuff.
Michael Gambon is a good Dumbledore, though I liked the other one better.
Anyway, what this movie is missing is several "clue scenes" that, done correctly, would've made this movie great. Little important things are missing from the movie, so they didn't screw up THAT bad, yet I'm still wondering why they took out the House-Elves, or the monsters in the maze.
Still, go WATCH IT! You won't be dissappointed, what I wrote is ways this movie could've been great, yet there are still many good things in the movie.
