Book review : Harry Potter and Goblet of fire - PART 2

PART 2 of my book review.

The scenes of the three tasks in the Triwizard Tournament are intensely rich in special effects making each look as real as they’re supposed to be. The entire production is more tangible and is more successful in making the viewers feel like they’re at Hogwarts than the first two movies. It is so magnanimous yet the movie is still effective in focusing more on Harry and the rest of the cast as they come of age and evolve. It is a well-balanced movie where the larger-than-life production sets and the story of a fourteen-year-old orphan coming of age complement each other.

The movie like the book gives us insights on things we can relate to in life. It shows us the importance of international cooperation because of the diversity of races and cultures within our surroundings. Another strong message that the movie imparts can be quoted from the words of Albus Dumbledore. He said, “Dark and difficult times lie ahead… Soon we must all face the choice between what is right… and what is easy.” Dark and difficult time may lie ahead for us and we should all make a choice. It is not always easy when we choose to do what is right but I believe we can always find solace in doing it. There is more to the movie than special effects and large production sets. It gives us something important to think over.

“Harry Potter and Goblet of Fire” is a collage of many stories, actors, feelings, sets, special effects and lessons—many different things that form one beautiful picture. It has a very wonderful story that is played by actors in utmost perfection in very grand production set with illustrious special effects coupled by a lesson or two. Tell me, what is more magical than that?

So how was that ha?
