Director: David Yates
Cast: Johnny Depp , Jude Law , Eddie Redmayne , Zoe Kravitz , Dan Fogler , Carmen Ejogo , Ezra Miller , Claudia Kim , Alison Sudol , Callum Turner , Kevin Guthrie , Katherine Waterston
Plot: The devious Gellert Grindelwald plans to raise pure-blood wizards so that he can rule over all non-magical beings. In an effort to thwart Grindelwald's plans, Albus Dumbledore enlists his former student Newt Scamander, who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided world.


My Movie Review: The movie is over-stuffed with great production value but its hard to follow!! Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes Of Grindelward is much in character build-up it's overwhelming to track and the facing felt shattered with many characters on the spot it lost focus to the story:( Albus Dumbledore is just accessory in this take I didn't felt his presence in the middle when the peak in the tale is about to unravel and I didn't see the magic and power his possessing within! Johnny Depp is the star to watch stealing the spotlight from the start with that wizarding ride in the night and a grand finish gathering his potential ally when one was force to choose his side:) This second take on the wizarding world is still worth it I get to know more some characters from the first one I didn't notice before and after watched I often wonder what will happen next?

Critics Consensus: Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald has glimmers of the magic familiar to Harry Potter fans, but the story's spell isn't as strong as earlier installments. More workmanlike than magical, "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald" nevertheless feels like an upgrade from its predecessor, one that adds star power, introduces key characters and lays the foundation for a genuine "Wizarding World" franchise. With too much happening all at once and not enough focus on bulding characters we actually care about, the film fails to leave any sense of an impact, which makes me concerned that future installments will fall victim to the same trend. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald weighs heavily and can be hard to follow, with very little comic relief. Still it's pretty fantastic -- that is, both pretty and a fantasy!!
