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.

Bloopers? I always sit through the credits, but 13 minutes?? I don't think this is long enough either. But I always love the books more anyway!

I can hardly wait. Still disappointed that it is not four hours with an intermission. Hopefully, there will be a longer edition when it hits the DVD market.

Shorter than I expected considering the length of the other movies compared to the books. This was the first long book and I always thought that it was going to be a four hour movie. Oh well, I'm still going to see it all.
MY BIRTHDAY'S TODAY! I can finally apply for a driver's license.

Excellent! I'd rather sit through credits with footage than wait through the whole list to see if there's anything at the end (which I was going to do anyway).

The movie's shorter than I thought because if you compare the size of the first few books to the fourth one, it is much much much much longer. It's more like the size of all three of them put together. Anyways, at least the movie's just action from one scene to the next - it will keep the audience entertained.

I wish they could have made it longer. I would have loved to see the Dursleys and other missing elements included. Oh well. I still think Gof will be the best movie yet.

GOF is gonna be shorter than COS ? I hadn't realized COS ran for so long; it sure didn't seem like it lasted more than 2 hours... Oh well, here's hoping for the best...

I think our expectations will be met, and maybe even surpassed with this movie! There are things that they wont include but we cant expect every little thing to be included. I cant wait for the movie!

I'm glad to know that this is a long film...it had to be, didn't it?! I mean...originally they considered making this two movies. Thank goodness they scrapped that idea since the tale really needs a single showing to maintain the cohesion.
