Hand Me The Trotters and The Goblet of Tyres

My! My! Disappointing! Really a let-down. I thought I'm into a treat of more magic and mystery but I am wrong. All I get is half a cent of some 'wannabe magicians'. Or maybe it's just me. I have too wild an imgaination when I read the book and that it is too dramatic if it was done it in the movie. Waste of my money!

The hall was pathethic. I think as part of the school loosening of budget, they have magically reduced the size of a grand hall into a mini tuckshop of some kuching kurauk primary school. (no offence if there is really such a school). Really pathethic, seeing the 4 houses having to squeeze in that mini-bar. Or maybe it's just me. Everybody has grown up, so relatively and compartively, the hall looked smaller with the same number of people but bigger in size. Yah! Maybe this can explain my oversight.

Dumbledore looks like an old, senile, easily freak-out man. He doesn't behave like he is a wise magician. He was squeeking here and there and raising his voice in frustration and hopelessness. My goodness! He is suppose to be a wise though with uncertainty about the future but yet firm and steady magician. But no no! I think he needs some oiling up in his acting skill or else I will really say DumptheDoor.

Ron! Hmmm! Honestly, i thought if he never appeared in this movie, it won't really matter much. No development in this character. But i think he should get a better hair stylist. The hair really look bad. I know his appearance not suppose to be something that is attractive but den, i'm sure he deserved a better hair style.

Harry. I still think he looks like Frodo Baggins. Or they are both the same actor. Hmmm. Nothing much to comment.

Hermoine. Hmmm. Ok! Nothing fantastic also. Well! Have great potential. Though the dress she wore for the ball was a bit too much for her. Then again, she is still young. Got to wait another few more years before such gown fits. Anyway the ball was pathetic too. They should really go for proper dancing. And the ballroom is darn small. Yes! Yes! I haven't forgotten about the school cutting-cost budget.

My! My! I don't have much to compliment about the movie. Ok the 3 challenges that the Champions had to face were pretty exciting but overall the show didn't bring out any flavour. The director tried to change from the usual directoring to a more dark, suspense, eerie feel. But honestly, it felt like they were saving on the lightings. Sorry folks! Disappointment and I say with great regards, waste of money!

Rating: Forget about the rating.
