BaaaD
This average movie, just like the first part, generally gets a variety of reviews from them, most of which are in the section. The most important ones point out that this movie avoids the weaknesses and problems of the previous episodes. But it has lost a lot of its magic. Exactly the same magic that drew the audience to this world, a good movie is a movie that grabs your attention from the very beginning and slowly starts to create a different atmosphere that won't let you get up for a moment. Why did I start this review with such a phrase? I wanted to tell you from the beginning that the movie Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is so bad that you will enjoy it more if you are busy with something else during the movie. A film that is a bad mix of the clichés of Hollywood blockbusters in the early 21st century and fairy tales for children. - peterverheul - 7 January 2024
Horrible story
Cast is great, I had great expectations. The special effects are also great, but I don't know if I ever saw a storyline bad as this. I watched it 2 times now and I still don't know what I am looking at. The characters are blend, we don't know why they do what they do and why it is important what they do. The animals are ofcourse beautiful, but that is it. Why is Newt collecting them? Where do they come from? What is the purpose of all of this?
There are so many question marks watching this. There are so many moments where I thought: why is this, and what am I watching? I can't really understand how someone can produce this movie without thinking: "hm, maybe the viewer won't understand this..." There is literally no story. These are all random chaotic fragments put in a strange order.
