Synopsis:-
Harry (Daniel Radcliffe) wondering
why his legendary scar -- the famous result of a death
curse gone wrong -- is aching in pain, and perhaps even
causing mysterious visions. Before he can think too
much about it, however, Harry boards the train to Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, where he will attend
his fourth year of magical education. Shortly after
his reunion with his best friends, Ron (Rupert Grint)
and Hermione (Emma Watson), Harry is introduced to yet
another Defense Against the Dark Arts teacher: the grizzled
Mad-Eye Moody (Brendan Gleeson), a former dark wizard
catcher who agreed to take on the infamous "DADA"
professorship as a personal favor to Headmaster Dumbledore
(Michael Gambon). Of course, Harry's wishes for an uneventful
school year are almost immediately shattered when he
is unexpectedly chosen, along with fellow student Cedric
Diggory (Robert Pattinson), as Hogwarts' representative
in the Tri-Wizard Tournament, which awards whoever completes
three magical tasks the most skillfully with a thousand-galleon
purse and the admiration of the international wizard
community. As difficult as it is to deal with his schoolwork,
friendships, and the tournament at the same time (not
to mention his feelings toward the ever unfathomable
Professor Snape [Alan Rickman]), Harry doesn't realize
that the most feared wizard in the world, Lord Voldemort,
is waiting for Harry to clutch the coveted Tri-Wizard
trophy, in doing so initiating his return to power.

Plot:-
Harry's fourth year at Hogwarts
is marked by the Triwizard Tournament, in which student
representatives from three different wizarding schools
compete in a series of increasingly challenging contests.
The competitors are selected by the goblet of fire,
which this year makes a very surprising anouncement:
Hogwarts will have two representatives in the tournament,
including Harry Potter! As if things weren't bad enough,
marks of the evil wizard Voldemort begin appearing,
signaling that he is finally ready to come back to the
land of the living.
The pivotal fourth novel in
the seven-part tale of Harry Potter's training as a
wizard and his coming of age. Harry wants to get away
from the pernicious Dursleys and go to the International
Quidditch Cup with Hermione, Ron, and the Weasleys.
He wants to dream about Cho Chang, his crush (and maybe
do more than dream). He wants to find out about the
mysterious event that's supposed to take place at Hogwarts
this year, an event involving two other rival schools
of magic, and a competition that hasn't happened for
a hundred years. He wants to be a normal, fourteen-year-old
wizard. Unfortunately for Harry Potter, he's not normal,
even by wizarding standards. And in his case, different
can be deadly.
