7/10
Good But not Great

This movie as many have said before me is very "good". As with the previous potter films i found it very entertaining but i did have qualms especially with this one. The director used his "directors license" a bit to much in this film to the point where it annoyed me. Don't get me wrong i enjoyed it and it is a fine piece of film i just had problems with certain things. spoiler don't read ahead

for example Dumbledore seizing harry and yelling at him or Viktor Krum being a buff guy strutting his stuff, it was all just backwards. Other problems were the fact that there was no quidditch and that the first 200 pages were crammed into the first 5 minutes. I give this movie a 7 out of 10 because it was a good adaptation and i know the director did his best. I guess what I'm saying is that the 4th harry potter novel couldn't have been adapted into a movie in a way that would please me with a running length that most moviegoers would accept. As a film its great as an adaptation its mediocre at best. I'm hoping for bigger things from the next film but am expecting an even bigger let down.
