Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (Two-Disc Deluxe Widescreen Edition)

I was very happy with this item! it was shipped quickly and it was still in the factory packaging just as promised. and the price was perfect! i watched it the day i got it.

This was a fun movie to watch. Great visual scenes as all of the Harry Potter series have had. Really takes you away to another land.

Movie was great just wished it would have specified that it didn't come with extras like the widescreen version.

I've had this DVD since it was released, and I loved it as much then as I do now...I happen to be watching the DVD + the Extra's DVD, and it was then that I finally realized that 'Cedric' and 'Edward' from "Twilight" were played by the same person...As someone who love's both series, I'm glad that they can share actor's...

Ordered this product to keep the series up to date. Good price overall. Have not watched it yet.

Quick delivery and processing.I purchased this as a gift for my sister she loved it! *Christmas2009*

I have seen every Harry Potter and a die hard fan til this day. With the Recent release of The Half Blood Prince and improvement of each movie I still feel that this is my favorite one out of the whole series. I love the whole concept of the triwizard tournament and then last 10-15 minutes of the movie still gives me chills every time. It is shot well, the music is amazing, and the cast is great (as always). Definite watch for any Harry potter fan.

Why do I even hope any more. this movie is just the same as the third one except with a different story and a new director to blame. GET THIS IN YOUR HEAD YOU CANNOT MAKE A MOVIE WITH JUST SPECIAL EFFECTS. This movie left so much out agin including Hermione's fledgling organization S.P,E,W, I wouldn't have minded this because Hermione's annoying but it seems the makers are so dicriminate of house elves that they have excluded them from the movie with Dobby's contribution to the story replace with Neville. The Yule Ball was awful with a short dance sequence and no reference to giants. Rita Skeeter has short appearences but they seem to have no effect on the story except making Hermione angry and there was nothing about her being an Animagus which was a needed point for the next movie. Sirius also has very little screen time only being a bunch of coals talking because the directors want to purposely overcomplicate things as to show off their wonderful special effects. The story again goes too fast excluding the Quidditch World Cup scene which introduced Viktor Krum. Actually it seems like the makers are being lazy and excluding Quidditch purposely just to give their poor animators a break so they can focus on making coals form a face and having spell fights. Now it seems like Dumbledore has transformed from a wizened wizard to a child molestor as he takes Snape's line and cue's and makes them his. The parts of the story that are excluded are mentioned instead of actually shown, clever I think not! don't get me wrong the book was excellent but it seems like they just want to show you one part and then the other and as someone mentioned before, if you blink you'll miss something. Anyways again I'm dissapointed, GET IT RIGHT PEOPLE. Another two hours of my life I'll never get back!

Being one of the biggest Harry Potter fan on the planet, I really enjoyed the movie....glad I found it.

Up to the point when this movie was originally released, this was the best out of the four. Being one of the longest books in the series, it was plainly clear to me that a lot was going to get cut out. In fact, pretty much all of the sub-plots are gone, making Harry (of course) the focus of the film instead of going into these pointless directions. For those who haven't read the books and have only seen the films, I don't find it necessary that we see Hermione preaching about the rights of house elves, Harry living at the Dursleys (I think after three movies, the audience gets that they're cruel to him) and the Weasleys taking him for the summer and the Quidditch World Cup. Much like my complaint about Ian Fleming describing eighteen excruciating holes of golf in Goldfinger and the movie version trimming it to the last two holes, you can't expect an audience to sit around and watch and still find the main story interesting. Another prime example of sub-plot cutting is Peter Jackson's adaptations of three LOTR books. If he had included Tom Bombadil's scenes, the audience would probably be still be watching Fellowship for at least another hour. Now that that rant's over, lets move on to the cast. Main cast is still excellent, and now they've finally discovered the opposite sex, which leads to some humorous moments and a stunning entrance by Hermione at the Yule Ball definitely made Harry and Ron's heads turn. Ralph Fiennes, who is practically unrecognizable under Voldemort's make-up (maybe he still feels ashamed for The Avengers), just oozes evil and I detect a hint of elegance in the character. Action sequences are some of the best though the dragon scene does drag a little but the fight with Voldemort is an exciting one. Patrick Doyle picks up the music department in this and, though ably picks up Williams' themes, adds his own touch to the franchise, making this a better score than the first two and just slightly better than the third.

i love this movie i think its the most intertaining one , i think this movie is better than the others made by far i love all harry potter movies but i think this one is my favorite also i have never read any of the books so i dont know what im missing i have heard that the books are way better they probably are but i still love the harry potter movies! i think they should be longer and include more information but i like!

Goblet of Fire was a pretty long book. In fact, it was the longest book I had ever read at the time that it came out back inn 2000. The movie came out five years later, and we all knew that things were going to wind up getting cut. Especially after the third one left so much out. The movie moves very quickly and doesn't really bother itself with filling in the audience with certain important plot details (priori incantatum, for instance), but the movie is really fun and will definetly keep you entertained.

Excellent fantasy adventure.Can anyone tell me for certain if the original blue versions of these movies are theatrical or extended editions?

My favorite movie in the Harry Potter series until Half-Blood Prince was released. I loved the action scenes, great graphics. Another HOMERUN for Harry Potter!!

I think they did a great job of packing a long book into one movie. I thought the dragon challenge and Ball were very well done. I even think it flowed nicely and didn't feel rushed. (I thought the third movie felt incredibly rushed.) I was sorry they didn't have a Dursley scene at the beginning, and I missed Winkie, but otherwise I liked the movie a lot, and this is from a huge fan of the books.

Harry Potter is a great time for entertainment. Add good quality and great buy that's wonderful

Cd was in great shape, no problems with order. I would order from this person again.

This was first on-line purchase of a "pre-owned" DVD. I am happy with it. It was practically new. I would buy from this person again.

The movies are good and getting better with every release. Can't wait to see the next one. They all miss a bit from the books but with a book so long things will get missed. I am ready to see how they tie it all together in the end.

i already gave my feed back when i received this-but the movie was fantastic. i now have the entire collection so now i can watch them anytime-no matter how many times i see them, i still find something i missed before-love it loveit!

I bought this online because my kids love the last disk of it to death.

I buy all my movies on Amazon. This Harry Potter didn't disappoint. A really enjoyable movie, and the best part of it is that with Amazon buying the movies I want is easy and efficient.

This is just another film of Potter's series, but has a goot transcription to blu-ray. Why there is not the DTS sound??? All the movies of anykind generally has the sound recorded in DTS too, but why few DVDs and Blu-rays have this option ? DTS sound is always the BEST !!! Listen to Predator X Aliens 2 and you will understand !!! If you want my email,it is gdcmusic@uol.com.br

It was nice getting the DVD at such a cheap price. It came in the mail about 10 days after I ordered it. Overall I'm happy

I've watched and enjoyed the other four Harry Potter movies and read all of the books. This movie is too rushed, trying to fit so much in that it leave gapping holes in the plot. Someone who has read the book might enjoy this movie as a visualization of some of the story's concepts, but to see this movie without the benefit of pre-reading would be a waste.

The script is pretty miserable and the lighting is too dark to be appreciated from a home setting.

I was fortunate enough to catch a midnight showing of the latest installment in the Harry Potter series, and I must say it does not disappoint. Harry Potter has matured a great deal, along with his best friends, Hermione and Ron, who all share a great deal of emotional turmoil related to romance, friendship and death.

They have quite a bit of obstacles thrown at them, everything from magic to the green demon of jealousy, not to mention the overwhelming forces of Voldemort. Perhaps the most intriguing part of the film is the character development that is brought forth through the testing of the trio's friendship as their platonic feelings grow beyond into something more passionate and dangerous.

The Quidditch World Cup is wonderful, however brief it is, and as usual Potter's involvement in it is nothing short of extraordinary, especially his encounter with a scaly and ferocious creature. This time however, the game goes beyond the traditional matches, and actually becomes a matter of life and death, which takes the film down a much deeper and darker path than ever seen before.

By no means is this film for children any longer, as it has ventured into the territory of content for adolescents and adults. That's a good thing though, because the natural progression of their age and maturity is matched by that of the wickedness of the world that these characters inhabit, and as a result the character development is all the more significant. Their lives are no longer as innocent as they once were, and the dark forces in the world of Harry Potter take a more proactive approach in their power struggle, something which has far more dire consequences than that of the first three films.

Several new characters are introduced who add a great deal of substance to the plot, and as a result the previously existing relationships are permanently altered, becoming more complex than that of childish innocence. Potter's new mentor for example sort of leads Potter down a nefarious path, which is the only way Potter has a chance to stand up to the imminent confrontation of his greatest foe. His inner demons grow in numbers, and it's obvious that Potter is no longer as benevolent as he once was.

The special effects and setting never disappoint, which complement the film just as effortlessly as before. I must give credit to the new director Mike Newell who has a deep understanding of the more disturbing and adult nature of this 4th chapter in the series.

I wouldn't say that this movie is better than the others, but it's definitely a worthy successor and moves the plot along as well as one could expect. I definitely recommend this film to Potter fans and newcomers alike because it is completely entertaining from start to finish.

One of the most action filled of the Potter movies. Especially enjoyed seeing a young Robert Pattinson (Cedric Digery) in the this movie. Good video quality not quite as good as Order of the Phoenix, but good color and enjoyable time spent. Glad I got the blu ray - no comparison to the regular DVD, Blu Ray is so superior.

This is the 4th Harry Potter movie. I think it's the scariest so far. He has to deal with the death of someone he knows. And someone who he thinks he knows isn't who they claim to be. It's got great visual effects and awesome acting all around.

While books are always better, the Potter movie series never fails to disappoint. My daughter and I always like to see the movie after reading the books (again and again). Right now we are preparing for the 6th movie coming out this summer by reading the books and seeing the movies again. This 5th is a perfect addition to our collection.

Every Harry Potter movie that comes out keeps getting better and better...this fourth one is filled with action-packed adventure, misconstrued friendship, and true love. I enjoy buying the two disc sets over the single editions b/c of the extras and interviews that are available. And every time I buy a movie, it's like adding another piece to me.

They're growing up, for sure. There are a lot more people in this one! What can I say, I'm female, more hot guys come out in this one. If you're a fan, this is a great collection.

If you are a Harry Potter fan with a Blu-Ray player, You need to buy all the Harry Potter movies. I love the detail that you don't see until you have seen it on Blu-Ray. It's like seeing it for the first time! The only thing that would make it better would be a 2 disc collector's edition or something.

The Bottom Line:

Though some of the cutting and trimming process seems nonsensical (why include an unnecessary Rita Skeeter?) and most of the book's magic--for lack of a better word--is lost, Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is one of the better adaptations (of one of the better books) the film series has to offer.

The DVD was delivered quickly and in good shape. The only thing is (and this could be my mistake) is that I thought it was new, with wrapping. There wasn't any wrapping when I received it. But I watched it and all was well!

I bet the demons, wherever their HQ is, must watch these movies and then laugh uproariously to see little kiddies watching these demonic films! Satan must then hand them the next film and they do the same thing, all the while thinking about how little children, teenagers, and adults watch this garbage and actually take it to heart! If only people would see the truth about Harry Potter, no more money would go towards demonic activities! "The truth shall set you free."

I enjoyed this movie and bought this as a gift. It arrived on time and in the condition promised. Thank you.

This DVD continued to have an enchanting environment. A labyrinth underwater breathing new magical creatures. He Who Must Not Be Named returns and threatens Harry's existence. The story line is picking up. I don't think this was better then yr 3 though

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire was amazing on Blu-ray. Audio was amazing, but the picture in some scenes were a bit off. But the rest of the movie was great!

It's not as good as the first 3 years of Potter. It's not as cohesive and as they grow older, the 3 stars' accents are harder to understand. But, good.

Soy una gran fanática de la serie, y recomiendo ampliamente el Blu ray, la imágen es impresionante y el sonido ni se diga. No puede faltar en su colección!

This was an upgrade to HD DVD. It was what I requested and came in a timely manner.

I have some of the films on HD-DVD as well, but there is no differnece in quality between the two. Great film!!

The Harry Potter movies have been an everlasting source of comfort for me. I was always promised a good faithful script, nice acting, and stunning visuals. But....Something along the road didn't quite work for Goblet of Fire. What didn't work, however? The first three movies ran smoothly, were great, and didn't have any problems. What happened?

It's Harry's fourth year at Hogwarts, and sometime has passed since he last heard from Voldemort. But quite suddenly, Voldemort supporters start springing up, promising terrifying results. On top of that, Hogwarts is hosting the Tri-Wizard tournament; a Wizarding competition.....And Harry might just have his first crush....Now before I start with the bad, let me start off with the good....It's always best to start that way now isn't it?

Rupert Grint gives a solid performance as Ron Weasley. He might just be the best young actor in the entire cast. He delivers his lines precisely, as great facial expressions, and is just a way to watch on film. Robert Pattinson does a fine job as Cedric Diggory, and makes a welcome, (if not short) addition to the cast. Oliver and James Phelps are back as the two Twins, and are hilarious once again. Tom Felton shows true professionalism as he steals every scene he's in, even if he only has three lines in the entire movie!

As far as adult actors go, Jason Isaacs as Lucius Malfoy and Alan Rickman as Severus Snape steal the scenes they're in. Jason is devilish as Mr. Malfoy, and nobody could play Severus as Alan can. But it's truly Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort that's the wonderous performance. Ralph has always been a favorite as mine, and he practically is Voldemort. Mr. Fiennes's acting is superb, as you find you can't take your eyes off of him....even if he has no nose....

But all reviews have to have a negative side; even in the case of Harry Potter.

I cannot fathom any idea as to what happened to Emma Watson. Her acting vastly improved in Prisoner of Azkaban, and she was showing promising results as Miss Granger. But suddenly, it was like as if she had suddenly taken a class on how not to act. In every scene Miss Watson is in, she's either A) Looking as if she's ready to cry, B) Getting ready to yell at someone, or C) Smirking very stupidly into the camera. What happened? As my title suggests... Perhaps it was the script? Surely the script however, does not give word for word what expression to use at every second however! Hermione Granger has left the building, and we have indeed been left with an empty shell.

The same thing goes for Daniel Radcliff; his acting even takes a detour! He only has one expression on the entire time of the movie, and comes across as very bland indeed. Miranda Richardson as Rita Skeeter was an atrocious mistake on every level. She hams the role up too much; the acting coming across much too over the top. Also, what was up with Dumbledore? I love the Michael Gambon as Dumbledore, but who decided to make him bland? He's supposed to be warm and fuzzy, but in this movie comes across very cold and unsympathetic. We can only blame this on a bad script.

The visuals in the film are nothing to write home about. Everything looks positively dark and dreary; which isn't very appealing to the eye. In turn this makes the viewer of the film bored, as stunning visuals grab the viewers; but there aren't any here. And I know Goblet of Fire is supposed to be dark, but is was too overly dark and depressing and not appealing to the eye at all.

It also seems the Magic takes a backseat in this flim. As another reviewer said, this movie is more like a movie about a School and Hormonal teens then it is about magic. The Yule Ball gets more screen time then it's worth; including a very stupid shot of Miss Watson walking down the steps in a pretty pink gown. The movie focuses more on Hormones and Death, and that's not what makes the Harry Potter franchise...Harry Potter.

Also, there's no Special Features. Seems you have to buy the 2-Disc special edition to get any. Which is bad if you already went and shelled out Twenty bucks for this version; to go out and shell out almost 40 is quite stupid indeed.

Me: Mr. Owl, Why was Goblet of Fire such a terrible film?

Mr. Owl: The world will never know.....

It seems Hollyweird, who usually can't get anything right, just "gets" what Potter is all about.
They haven't made one poor movie based on the Potter books yet, and that is saying something.
I don't understand why so many "OFFICIAL" film critics slammed this for being too dark. HUH???
Clearly they haven't read any of the books.
IT'S SUPPOSED TO GET DARKER!!!
The kids are growing up, the story line is getting more serious, if Hollywood tries to dummy the story line down they WILL alienate all the rabid readers.
Sorry critics, it's not Hollywood who dropped the ball, you did.
This film is yet another brilliant addition to the Potter legend.
Another must see/ must own.

I am very pleased with my purchase, I stayed up late and watched my new DVD as soon as I got it. It came very fast after I ordered it and was everything it was said to be. I would definately order from Amazon in future.

One of my favorite movies and books of the series, this Harry Potter DVD doesn't disappoint with its special features and director commentary.

As always I have found the Harry Potter Potter Series great. This latest was no disappointment. I think its originator Ms J. K. Rowling has done an excellent job with her books and now to see the video is fantastic.

This is a really great movie. It seems to stay true to the book. Really a must have if you're a true Harry Potter fan. Plus this 2-disk has plenty of special games, features, etc...

Even those who are not die-hard Harry Potter fans will like the Goblet of Fire. I wasn't a DHHPF and I thought the movie was great. Now I'm hooked.

Harry battles his nemesis for the 4th time in this segment of the series. He loses those close to him and he learns that all things can be overcome with friends around to help. Emotions are high in this film as the kids mature and that is to be expected. Another great movie in the series.
