Wow
It's a classic movie that everyone loves. It was the highlight of my childhood. Watching it again brought back the excitement of a magical world that I always wish existed. I watched Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.
It seemed logical at the time not to start from the first of the series - that would be a moment where I question my logic, however it was still as enjoyable as the first. I instantly remembered why this one out of the seven was specifically my favourite. I loved the amount of activities going on in the movie; it also progressed into this magical world we knew little about, so we find out more than we previously may not have even thought about... Unless you read the books like I did. That moment of excitement to actually be able to visualise the Goblet of Fire is something that can only be described by true Harry Potter fans.
I realised whilst watching the movie that it never occurred to me that there would be other magic schools other than Hogwarts. The moment of awe was something I enjoy experiencing repetitively each time I come across the Harry Potter series.
The movie starts with classic reunion of Harry, Hermione and the comedian of the series, Ron. However unlike the others it progresses their relationship as they have clearly grown. It was enjoyable to watch how their relationships shook when other characters were added into the equation. When the plot moved on from the bright and light toned scenes I then questioned how I managed to watch the scenes with the entrance of Voldermort. I wonder how I managed to watch the first Harry Potter movie without being freaked out as a child. Nevertheless it's a movie that I wouldn't mind re-watching countless times.

Nice movie
Master Sanoop's cute smile is infectious and diffuses out of the screen to spread one across your face. Vijay Babu as the Caning Maths Teacher, Mukesh as the apple loving principal and Joy Mathew as Captain Grand-dad are simply perfect and they all etch a place in your heart. Special mentions must go to Ryan's gang members, especially Mr. Toothless- ruthless.
Good movie

Good movie
Provides a concise, critical evaluation of a film, incorporating factual details, plot summary, and personal opinions supported by specific examples from the movie. It should cover key aspects like the story, characters, performances, direction, visuals, and music, offering a balanced perspective on what makes the film work or fall short for the target audience. The paragraph should conclude with a clear recommendation on the film's watchability. Osm movie.
A Well-Written "Good Teachings Guide" For Kids. ♦ 69%
I was expecting a copy of some blown-off children's film with clichéd story-line and commonplace jokes. I was wrong, to an extent.
It starts off with a fantasy story of how a pen with a monkey head works wonders for a British. Characters grow into the screen as the beautiful narration advances and exposes plot points. Centered in a school, where a bunch of mischief machines find trouble doing their Math homework, the story revolves around Ryna Philips and his transition from bad boy to good boy. The aura is brilliantly captured, supported by a very good cast. The lead actor really pulls off his role well. Also, other kids keep us entertained with potshots to teachers, jokes and funny actions.
Jayasurya & Remya Nambeeshan do good as parents and they play pivotal roles towards the end. Chiefly, the story gives many life values throughout as to what is right, there is only one God, help others, say the truth always, etc.. As a result, it becomes a very good manual kinda film for kids who can learn stuffs.
What was supposed to be a fantasy flick goes serious towards the end and the climax just was the apt thing for the film. I loved Vijay Babu and his portrayal. Never a dull moment. Although, as an adult, the screenplay seemed to detach me with the whole experience. Not complaining of the 2 hours, but still, too much childish elements made me numb.
BOTTOM LINE: Recommended! Still, better than lots of other Mallu movies.
