...Goblet of Fire—taking the viewer along for a terrifying ride including dragons and carnivorous caverns. Along with these visually rich action scenes are moments of awkward adolescent romance, such as the Yule Ball, an event like Eliot Fete on anabolics, replete with a rave-out performance by the paler members of Radiohead and Pulp.Humor keeps this “Potter” chapter from immersion into tonal darkness, much of it emerging in dialogue invented in the adaptation from J.K.
