Favorite/Best Review of Rupert's Performance in GoF

WINNER: "First off, Rupert Grint is spectacular as Ron, who emerges as the strongest actor and character of the bunch – he carries the weight of the entire story on his thin shoulders, and does it with style." (Brian Buzz Juergens, FreezeDriedMovies.com) ~ 60%
"Come to think of it, I'm starting to think that Grint is the real breakout star of this franchise..." (Greg – Ubercine.com) ~ 10%
"Grint, who has never been better or used quite as well, as Ron. More than the other two, Grint comes into his own here in eye-opening ways, for the first time moving away from being just comic relief and into a full-fledged human being with valid insecurities and resentments." (The Movie Boy) ~ 10%
"I was especially impressed by the unvoiced acting by Rupert Grint as Ron – he has it tough as he must show jealousy throughout much of the film without a lot of dialogue." (Cheryl DeWolfe, Apollo Movie Guide) ~ 10%
"Rupert Grint has trouble being dorky because he’s becoming such a young stud." (Fred Topel of Movie News) ~ 0%
"Grint's performance as the bumbling, insecure Ron - one tired of living in the shadows of "the great Harry Potter" - is spot on." (Eric Moro, Now Playing Magazine) ~ 0%
"Rupert Grint had a rather boring time of it in the first three films. Stuck playing Ron Weasley, the unglamorous yet amusing sidekick, he hasn’t had much chance to show that he can do more than look gormless and raise a laugh. As Harry and Ron’s friendship is placed under increasing strain to the point where they aren’t speaking to each other, Grint gives Ron emotional depth in a moving and restrained performance." (Hannah Costigan, durham21) ~ 0%
