Quite similar to the way my 8-year-old nephew reacted when he got to the end very recently. I remember watching this as a 9-year-old child in 2005 and being pretty emotionally jarred from the last act of the film. All in all, it's a really good film if you think your child can handle it. After 3 previous Potter films, all of the teen actors/actresses are seasoned performers and they all give great performances, although some of them still retain a bit of youthful awkwardness but it doesn't interfere too much.
Same goes for the locations/setting choices. As always with Potter films, the soundtrack is stellar and fits the scenes quite well. The action scenes look good with lots of convincing special effects and choreography that help bring them to life. These parts feel like they don't have much bearing on the overarching story with Voldemort and the bad guys which becomes the main focus towards the end. The film's pacing can be pretty slow in the middle with lots of focus on teen drama and the TriWizard Tournament.

The scene is relatively quite disturbing and might stick in your little ones' minds.Īll of that being said, the movie is good! Another entertaining installment in the Potter franchise. The deaths are caused by magic and are therefore bloodless for the most part, but one of the scenes is particularly jarring:Ī boy is killed on-screen by an adult in the last act of the movie in a very visible manner and close-ups of the boy's body are shown multiple times, complete with an overwhelmingly grief-stricken father sobbing over the body near the end.
Three characters are killed by bad guys (2 of them on-screen). Harry is injured and tortured by enemies as he is restrained and hopelessly surrounded by bad guys. In each of the TriWizard Tournament tasks, characters are injured, kidnapped, and have their lives threatened by magical beasts and dangerous locations. A sporting event is razed to the ground by a group of Voldemort's soldiers with widespread destruction and implied civilian casualties. The film is also darker, grittier, and bloodier than previous Potter films with dark and foreboding themes as Voldemort's evil forces make their resurgence and cause destruction in their wake.
A bitter jealousy-fueled feud between Harry and Ron leads to some bickering and the occasional (mild) swear word. One female character (a ghost) shows blatant sexual interest in Harry and attempts to watch him nude while bathing.
Lots of focus on relationships and jealousy, and suggestive comments are made about/between students.

The film is full of teen drama and romance that wasn't nearly as prevalent in previous Potter films. Much like the 4th Potter book of the same name, Goblet of Fire lets you know from the very beginning that the Potter films aren't for younguns anymore.
