"Though the third Fast and the Furious installment, Tokyo Drift, wasn’t a huge box office disappointment with its $63 million domestic gross, it was significantly less successful than its predecessors, The Fast and the Furious ($145 million) and 2 Fast 2 Furious ($127 million). A fourth film would normally see an even bigger drop in box office receipts, but next week’s Fast & Furious has a good chance of actually being the highest-grossing film in the series yet, due to the return of original cast members Paul Walker, Michelle Rodriguez, Jordanna Brewster and, most im "

"I had watched Harry Potter and the Sorcerer’s Stone several years ago, shortly after it came out on DVD and found it among the least enjoyable movies I’d watched in quite a while. It wasn’t that it was bad - it was that it was, in my estimation, completely forgettable. I compared it at the time to a fast food value meal: Nothing about it would stick with me for very long. I’ll admit I went into it having not read it or any of the other Harry Potter books, but that didn’t seem to matter. I had no interest in exploring the Potter universe farther. Then my brother-in-law, darn him, convinced me to read the books and I decided to indulge him and give them a shot. He was, after all, the one who had overcome my resistance to “Buffy, the Vampire Slayer” and so I’ve come to more or less trust his judgement on these things. I, of course, wound up enjoying all seven books. So I decided to give the movies another shot. While Sorcerer’s Stone still comes off as pretty flavorless - as does Cham ... "

"Even though this one skimps out on a lot of the fine details found in the book, it doesn't do a terrible job of adapting into the film it finally became. Every time I watch this one, I like it a little more. This is the spot (in the books, at least) that, for me, seems like everything is coming together for a very exciting ending to the series. I couldn't wait to see Order of the Phoenix (even if the film didn't live up to expectations). "

"I hated this at the cinema. Many months later I rented it and gave it a second chance. I hated it even more. This book is several hundred pages long and, despite the title, only a small portion of it is about the Goblet of Fire/Tri-Wizard tournament. And yet, that's all you'll get out of this movie. It's like asking for a peach and getting only the pit. Asking for an apple and getting only the core. Asking for sex and getting handed a used condom instead. "

"One thing that makes Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix a good, but not great installment in the series is its treatment of magic.Alfonso Cuarón is the only one of the Potter directors to effectively evoke a world of everyday magic. Mike Newell's interpretation of J.K. Rowling's creation is one of magic as a Big Deal. David Yates and company have made a move in the direction of Cuarón's approach, but there's still a sense of magic as something essentially special or exceptional (Chris Columbus' contributions are just too flat and devoid of ideas to be meaningfully compared to the rest). Of course, some uses of magic have to be rare or truly serious, but there's an offhandedness and normalcy to the way the witches and wizards use their powers in Prisoner of Azkaban that sets that movie apart from the others in the franchise. It remains the film that best captures the fantastic for me. Originally posted on:Short-Circuit Signs "

"HARRY POTTER AND THE GOBLET OF FIRE ***rated PG-13 (for sequences of fantasy violence and frightening images.)2 hrs. 30 min.novel by J.K. Rowlingscreenplay by Steven Klovesproduced by David Heymandirected by Mike NewellYear four at Hogwarts finds the now adolescent Harry competing in the Triwizard Championship or some such nonsense. Fans of J.K. Rowling's books no doubt know exactly what happens and will only find fault in whatever description I come up with and the rest of us don't really care. At any rate, as a movie, Goblet of Fire is a step backward from Alfonso Cuaron's work on Prisoner of Azkaban. Mike Newell takes over as director and he does a fine, if uninspired job. The Goblet of Fire judges who gets in and who doesn't. On that fateful night, three champions names are spit out of the goblet and read by Dumbledore. But then the Goblet spits out one other....Harry's. These two major events point to the return of Lord Voldemort. Dumbledore and the other teachers sense it, bu ... "
