i would agree that the only thing that saves it from complete disgrace is the peripheral characters' acting. but for the 3 main characeters to be so bad it does make a joke of the whole thing. and yes i do agree that danial radcliffe has improved since the 1st one. like you said him trying to express fear was woeful. but another hurdle and expression he will have to learn to express is ANGER cos his attempts at teen angst, outrage and anger were funny and then sickening. and 3 times you watched it? wow, you must have stamina, worse than chinese water torture.
and unfortunatly they could have three monkeys scratching each other's backs for 3 hours, slap a title of 'harry potter and the goblet of fire' on it and the crowds would still line the streets to hand over good money for the pleasure of watching it. and some of them might even enjoy it. people only overlook the terrible quality of the films, acting etc because of their affection for the books.
