Re: Harry Potter: Goblet of Fire
I thought it was pretty good. Way better than the third movie, but not as good as the first two.

I hate the change that was made to the way Hogwarts looks from the second to the third movie and they kept it here. You notice the difference when you watch the first two movies and then watch the third. The biggest evidence of this is where the womping willow is located in the second and then where it is moved to in the third. I don't like the way Hagwarts looks as it is in the third, but at least give us some continuity between movies and stop moving things around.
The owlery. From the books, it is without a doubt clear that it is connected to the rest of Hogwarts and in the fourth movie, it's not. What's up with that? Never in the books has a student had to go outside to go to the owlery. Why in the world would you change it for the movie?
Also, the dress robes were unimanginative, except Ron's and to a lesser degree, Harry's. The girls for the most part were pitiful. I could go to a department store in the mall and buy many of those off the rack right now if I wanted to. They are supposed to look like robes. That's why they are called dress robes. Let's show a little imagination here people.
*End Spoilers*
Except for those complaints, movie was great. Most of those are just visual interpretations of the universe and don't really affect the story so they are easily overlooked.
