Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire has a running time of 156 minutes and 54 seconds, according to the British Board of Film Classification
. That's a mere six seconds shy of what we reported earlier this month based on a reliable source (who apparently rounded up).
Veritaserum reports that the final 13 minutes, which contain the film's credits, are worth sitting through to get some extra laughs.
This length makes it the second longest Potter film after Chamber of Secrets, which clocked in at 161 minutes, even though the book is twice as long.
The BBFC recently rated Goblet of Fire 12A, meaning no one under 12 years old may see the movie without an accompanying adult. The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) rated the film PG-13 in the U.S. which places kids under 13 under the same restriction.

Wow, that is a very long movie. It's like 2 and 1/2 hours long. Well most of the HP movies are that long. I bet they are showing the mess-ups during the credits, that should be really funny.

I personally don't think that any of the movies have been long enough..I wish they could be just shy of 3 hours or so...that would be perfect. But i'll take what I can get!!! Credits huh?? I always sit through the credits!!

Hey, that's not too bad. I still think that the longer it is the better it gets. It isn't really my descision to make, but i would definatly go for the longer version. But who am I to say? I will be happy, as long as there is a movie. And a good one at that. :)

Wow, 13 minutes of credits. I wonder what is planned. But, good, the movie is 2.5 hours long! That is pretty good. ALthough I wouldn't have minded if it was 3.

That was predictaable. That's what they were aiming for anyways. They have a timeframe in mind and then create a script to fit the general area.

Two and a half hours isn't bad, but I wouldn't care if it was longer. I always sit through credits anyway just to listen to the end title and read the cast list

I'll be seeing it with some mates for my mate's birthday. I can't wait, maybe we'll go shopping afterwards. We're all over twelve but i think her mum will watch it with us anyway.
