Individually, how good were each of the films as faithful adaptation of the books?

- Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix. The book Order of the Phoenix often gets knocked for its preoccupation with hormonal teenagers’ mood swings.
- Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. It’s unfortunate the movie version of Goblet of Fire doesn’t fall at the top of the heap when the book version ranks #1 or #2 for many Potter fans.

Many times, a book-to-movie adaptation deviates greatly from the source material. The Harry Potter movies generally follow the plot of the books and don't make too many changes, and most of the casting decisions are good choices for the roles. They didn't make the characters older or create new scenes to replace book scenes, etc.
