Harry Potter [4] and the Goblet of Fire (2005)

My favorite Harry Potter movie out of the first 7. Directed by Mike Newell and featuring some of the most entertaining magic in the entire series. The tri-wizard's tournament comes to Hogwarts and when someone puts Harry's name into the cup he is forced to compete alongside Cedric [Robert Pattinson] representing Hogwarts.

A difficult time for Harry as his classmates consider him a cheater and is foreshadowing to difficultly he will face with his classmates in later films. The tournament has Harry fighting dragons, rescuing friends from mermaids, and navigating a freaky labyrinth. Some of the most significant events of the series happen in this film, and it has the most action in the series to this point.

Of all the movies, this is the best candidate for a standalone film. If you haven't seen the entire series you will be able to get enough of it to enjoy it.

Vote: 9/10
