★★★☆ (Full score of four stars) In Goblet of Fire, Dumbledore said slowly and solemnly: "Dark and difficult times are close at hand." In this adventure, Harry will fight the dragon. In the face of the Death Eater attack, and for a 14-year-old boy, perhaps the most difficult task is to invite the girl to be company at the Christmas ball. There is no doubt that Harry passed all the challenges, because in the fiction world, his next adventure has been published, but the test in "Goblet of Fire" raised Harry's power to the limit. Harry had just turned 13 in the last movie, and the entire series became PG-13. At least there is Owl Messenger, but many of the fancy details in the previous work have disappeared in order to make room for a more powerful and terrifying plot. Will this series grow with Harry and reach an R grade when he turns 17? Voldemort seemed to be able to do evil countless times. Although we caught a glimpse of his face in "Sorcerer's Stone", we saw his full picture for the first time in "Goblet of Fire". He did not disappoint: bald head, slug-like skin color, serpentine nostrils, He is played by Ralph Fiennes, an evil creature, and he finally reunites with the Death Eaters. Since Voldemort’s potential power has almost recovered, Hogwarts and even the entire structure of Harry’s world have been threatened, so this film becomes a gap between the civilizational tradition of Hogwarts and the dark emptiness of Voldemort’s doctrine. struggle. This movie is more violent and less cute, but the plot is not blindly destroyed like a video game; it has a purpose, form and style, such as the Triwizard Tournament at the beginning of the movie. Three finalists were selected by the Goblet of Fire, and then the Goblet of Fire spit out an unprecedented fourth name: Harry Potter. This is illegal, because you must be 17 years old to participate in the game, and Harry is only 14 years old, but Dumbledore is also helpless. The question is: who put Harry's name in it? The Triwizard Tournament started at the beginning of the movie, but after the Quidditch World Cup. The stadium where the World Cup is held is so big that the council of "Star Wars" looks like a restaurant theater. The World Cup final was interrupted by an ominous omen; the Death Eaters came, announcing Voldemort's return, and the words counted. But the small-scale conflict was quelled, the students returned to Hogwarts, and exchange students from two overseas magic schools joined in: Boothbatten girls from France, they are like Bemelmans’s. Marching in line like a maid, and the neat-looking Aryan guy from Durmstrang School, they are like a group performance in "Triumph of the Will." In addition to Harry, Cedric Diggory is also a player from Hogwarts, and The other two players are Victor Krum, a Quidditch master from Durmstrang, who looks ready to become a professional player, and the flexible and elegant Ferrer Delacour , The Siren of Boothbarton. They face three challenges together: conquering the fire dragon, rescuing prisoners in the dim lagoon, and entering a seemingly endless maze. Waiting in the maze was Voldemort, who had been lurking behind the scenes, but now he appeared with anger. Faced with these tests that are enough to make you postpone your homework, Harry must also finish his fourth year at Hogwarts. As usual, another weird new teacher has been added this year. "Crazy Eye" Alastor Moody (Bradan Gleason) is a new professor of Defense Against the Dark Arts. He seems to be made of parts; he has a prosthetic limb, a glass eye with a zoom lens, It can also be rotated independently. Finally, we still have to face mature adolescence. I always thought Harry would fall in love with Hermione in the end, even though their inseparable friend Ron obviously had the same ambitions. But for the Christmas ball, Harry mustered up the courage to invite Zhang Qiu (Liang Peishi) who likes him very much. Ron invited Hermione, but she already had an appointment with a student who could arouse Ron's jealousy the most. These scenes look almost in line with the spirit of John Hughes' high school movies. Most of the regulars of the Porter series have returned, even if there is only a short scene, it is great to see Hagrid finally find love, with Bussbarton’s principal lady Maxime (Francis de la Tuva Decorated). You will remember Hagrid is a hairy half-giant. Francis is even taller, but luckily she is not that hairy. A new character is Rita Skeeter, who loves to inquire about other people's private lives. She is a gossip columnist for the Daily Prophet. The pictures in this newspaper talk, just like the portraits in the early movies. Through the fourth film, the Harry Potter series demonstrates Rowling’s original flexibility more than ever. Her novel has created a world that can expand infinitely and create new characters infinitely. There are also schools like Hogwarts in other countries, which have become news and offer many possibilities; the only obstacle to the eternal continuation of this series is Harry's unstoppable age growth. The thought of him going back to Hogwarts for Old Boys' Day makes me feel frustrated and unimaginable. "Goblet of Fire" is directed by Mike Newell, who is the first British director in the series. His works range from the romantic "Four Weddings and a Funeral" to the amazing "Faithful Traitor" to the gentle "Charming April". Such a diverse career has helped him in Goblet of Fire, which explores a wide range of emotions. When Harry's life was on campus, the relationship between teenagers' love and the dark abyss vacillated, Neville struck a delicate balance between whims and bad omens.
