Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire

J. K. Rowling did a magnificent job by alluring our imagination into the world of wizardry and magical powers in her multi-billion franchise of Harry Potter. Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is my absolute favorite, thus far, and honestly, I have to come clean and admit admirably that I was not fond and early rejected the entire Harry Potter, but what changed my mind completely was how well the books were selling globally. This one-time welfare mother turned billionaire writer from London, England changed the way kids read today, and one book critic raved Ms. Rowling’s dedication in bringing Harry to life which has been an extraordinary journey for everyone alike.

This is the fourth film in the popular Harry Potter series, directed by Mike Newell. The film is gorgeously acted, the music is haunting and inspiring and the special effects are simply perfected. From the beginning of the film to the ending credits, this film “the Goblet of Fire” is definitely entertaining.

Harry Potter, Hermione Granger, and Ron Weasley enter their fourth year at Hogwarts School. The school has been selected to host the Triwizard Tournament, a legendary event in which one wizard each from two rival schools and Hogwarts compete in three dangerous tasks. Dumbledore, head of Hogwarts, reveals The Goblet of Fire, a magical cup which acts the judgment by selecting the candidates. Three students from each school will participate under restricted age requirement of the age of seventeen. But, when all three names are selected an additional fourth name is thrown out of the cup of the Goblet of Fire revealing the name of Harry Potter.
