I think he was really good. Likeable enough to make the end more tragic. As though we'd known him for years.
And his 'it's not a bad place for a bath' line was hilarious.

I thought he was a very good actor, and I think he did a good job sticking to the character in the book. Cedric was my favorite character in GoF and in the book. I was sad when he died

Robert did an awesome job of playing Cedric. I really liked him in this role.

I liked his performance and all, he was a fairly good actor but every time I looked at him I thought: What on Earth is a Calvin Klein model doing in the middle of Scotland???? I'm sorry but his face was sort of square and modelesque and I couldn't help but see him as a model.

I know it's just me and I wish I could overpower that, but I can't. The joke's on me, I guess.

I thought he was a perfect Cedric. He personified what Cedric was. A handome guy who seemed to have everything going for him. Great casting. Him and Katie looked great together as well.

A couple months back, I was disappointed because he didn't fit my image of Cedric. But, eventually, my image of Cedric conformed to him and I think he was perfect for the part.

I loved Cedric! Although I missed the bath line because I had drank about a litre of pop from suspense and I had to go to the bathroom so bad! And that was the part when I left. I'm sad I missed it!! But I love Cedric so much and he is soooooooo handsome!! And when he dies, it was really sad, and I will admit it, I cried my eyes out. I don't know what it is, I just get so connected with the Characters in the books, how can you not cry? He did a really great job, he was perfect.

Hahahaha, yeah.

Cedric: You know the Prefect's bathroom on the fifth floor?
Harry: Yeah?
Cedric: Well, it's not a bad place for a bath. Just take your egg and mull things over in the hot water.

That was one of the funnier parts of the movie.

He did great. I wish he had had a few more lines, but the ones he did have, he did very well. He was just the humble boy that I'd pictured. While everyone was completely against Harry it seemed that Cedric, in the book and movie, if he did or didn't believe Harry about putting his name in the goblet, he was still very fair to him.

The only line I didn't like of his is when they just got to the graveyard and he stood up and said "Where are we?"..I leaned over and whispered to my friend "A GRAVEYARD you idiot!" Haha.

I thought he did a wonderful job, even though we didn't get to see much of him. I really liked how Harry and Cedric kept their cordially towards each other throughout the film. I was worried that they were going to mess that up somehow, but I was very pleased about how they interacted with eachother. The scenes where they confided in eachother what the next tasks were going to be were pretty near perfect, even if they sounded a little awkward. I was also very pleased with how everything turned out in the third task and the graveyard. It would have ruined everything if the actors failed to capture the scene like it was in the book, but they did beautifully and the entire thing was just brilliant.

I don't know why everyone is saying that the "take a bath" line was so funny. I mean, it wasn't. Anyhoo, he had like 6 lines the entire movie, so he did ok for what he had to do.

Good looking, perfect manners, sooo cute, Robert did a great job. I loved his relationship with Harry, his dad and other Hufflepuffs.

I preferred him in the book, because I didn't think Robert was THAT handsome. Honestly, I didn't think any of the characters were that attractive. Strangely, the prettiest character in the movie is probably Hermione.

But as for actual acting abillity, I do think he did pretty good.

He honestly did look attractive in every shot....they filmed the angles perfectly to make him out to be this astonishingly handsome 17-year-old. Well done, filmmakers.

Also, he did fine on his lines, I liked when Harry told him it was dragons for the first task and he just goes..."Seriously?" Such a natural response!

I agree...."Where are we?" was said in the wrong tone. That line is in the book, but Pattinson said it to be like..."Oh look, where have we ended up? Looks like a lovely place, what could it be?" rather than...."Uh-oh...where are we?"
