THE THREE TASKS


Mr. Mike Newell has indeed done a good job. Well, first of all a big Hi..!! to all Potter fans out there. Today I managed to see the latest of the Harry Potter sequel, namely “HARRY POTTER and THE GOBLET OF FIRE”. Well wow..!! may be too small of a word to describe the movie. But by far this is one of the best of the Harry Potter movies to come out.

A great job indeed by the director, at the same time I have to accept the fact that a lot of things are missing when compared to the book. The starting of the movie itself is something really different. Actually I wanted to see the Quiddich world cup. For those of you who don’t have any clue about Quiddich…all I can say it’s similar to soccer but you fly in brooms rather than run with your legs. The whole first part of the movie has really been rushed through. But the sets are just magnificent and spectacular display of technology.

At the same time this movie didn’t disappoint in many ways, the three tasks which are the prime events of the book have been picturised in the most spectacular way as one can imagine. The man playing the role of Mr. Albus Dumbledore however disappointed in many ways, actually the original man who played this role unfortunately died and he was replaced with a real joker who just over played his part.

Though the hype with regard to the movie is not that high compared to the release of the sixth book…it does satisfy one in many ways.

On the whole it’s a must watch for all Potter fans…!!

If you classify Potter among the fictional-imaginative-special effects movie, I like Lord of the Rings better. But goblet of fire is yet to release in this part of the world(yeah and they call this a developed nation...and they dont have the latest movies on time!...always are late by 2-3 weeks).
