So this sequel to Fantastic Beasts And Where To Find Them is very action packed and full of content and visually stunning. However I think there is too much action, too much content and at times too visually stunning. Don’t get me wrong I love this whole story and mythos and I am along for the ride because the world of Harry Potter never disappoints. If a franchise can take the time to tell a story that is complete and doesn’t feel like a very fast ride at an amusement park then is when it feels more organic.
Eddie Redmayne and Jude Law are terrific in this flick. Johnny Depp is a terrific villain. Each is charismatic and that makes the whole story go. There were some interesting things that kinda point to the future but I won’t spoil it for you. I recommend you see this on the big screen, any of these movies are worthy of your dollars and time spent at your local movie house. JK Rowling still has it and she will command your attention from start to finish, she is magic like that.
Going to see it tomorrow, can’t wait. Thanks for the review, Tony. Hope you had a great Thanksgiving. :O)

I’m happy to hear that. We felt the movie good, particularly when you consider there was a great deal to set up for what’s to come in the next three films.

I agree. I think the first one had more story and this one more action which didn’t really add much except minutes. I hope the next one will be much more like the first. Still enjoyed it tho lol

I did enjoy the darkness of it and it does take the story forward. Johnny Depp is quite charismatic and he makes a good bad guy.
