Jamie passion and passionfruit!

I forgot that I saw this 4^th film from the series on video.  What can you say?  Many of the visuals are great especially the contest with the flying dinosaur and the underwater scenes.  Most of the rest is formulaic and it seemed to suffer here as so mch was crammed in to make a long book a reasonably long film.  It is really much more suitable for a television series at this stage.  The acting is all quite uniform and Harry is anodyne with a dash of pluck.  Of the new episode perhaps Ralph Fiennes as Voldemort is the most impressive addition to the cast.  Brendan Gleeson as Mad-Eye Moody is also fun.  But overall, while I found it entertaining enough, the book is far richer and this particular episode less magnetic than the 3^rd.
