Harry Potter of and the Goblet of Utter Bollocks - a KILL IT WITH FIRE review


This movie is so lame... can't stop... the aneurysm!
*Note: I originally wrote and posted this review on another blog of mine two years ago (during a time when I was perhaps not as good at writing as I like to think I am now). It has been updated and reposted here.

Welcome to my Harry Potter rant review. Let me start by saying I am a huge Harry Potter fan. Was I disappointed with the fourth film? That is an understatement. But I'm not just talking about your average fan's run-of-mill anger towards a film adaption of a beloved book or comic. No, I'm talking about a film director who changed the characters beyond any point of recognition, who completely ignores subtle traditions of storytelling, and a tale that is so fast-paced and bulging with shock value that it renders the final product aggressively lacking in the charm which first attracted us to the Harry Potter films.
