Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire (2005)
it was okay
I have to say, this movie was not how I expected. It was so fragmented! They left out so many things that I really would have liked to see. The acting was terrible (especially on Emma Watson's part.) She was such a spaz! Can you say 'overacting'? I would say that Ron Weasley did a really good job of acting though. I think he was the best of the 3. If you are expecting this movie to be fun and good for kids, you might try thinking again. Voldemort was so evil looking, and ran and acted so evil. It was quite eerie. And the death eaters were pretty scary too. But for the most part, it wasn't especially scary. It was just that part with voldemort (which lasted about 15 minutes) and the part with the death eaters which only last a few minutes. I have a bone to pick with the fact that so much of the book was left out. (((***SPOILER***)))they didn't show ANY of the World Cup tournament! I mean, come on! We all wanted to see that, did we not? Yeah, sure, they show them getting all seated and cheered up for the quidditch match, but then, just as the competition began, the freaking scene ended! They didn't show it! (((***SPOILER***))) Also, they didn't even show Cedric Diggory's funeral! COME ONE PEOPLE!!! UGH!!!!!!!!! Anyways. Yes, I am over being mela-dramatic. :-) But anyway, it was pretty good for the most part, just ridiculously fragmented. Don't see it if you get scared easily though. It's pretty dark.
The Testaments: Of One Fold and One Shepherd (2000)
Uplifting, Inspired, AMAZING!
I can't say truly that I have seen very many movies that I would go back and enjoy seeing over and over again consistently. However, after viewing this particular movie, I can. It is a movie about inner struggles, repentance, love, and best of all, faith. When there is no place else to turn and you are confused, you can turn to our Savior and Redeemer. With an ending that will literally leave you in a pile of tears, this movie is superb. Probably the best by far!
I read a comment on here saying that this film was awful. I honestly can't say I understand the logic behind that comment. It is a fantastic missionary movie (and I know because I know of people who saw it, and they became interested in the LDS church.) And also, it is a movie that can relate to us in our day; it can relate to how we struggle inside to find the truth.
TWO THUMBS WAY UP!
