    Why would it suddenly start acting like Potter movie? 

     

    That doesn't prove your point. Most of those films were from a different era where films were not as frontloaded.

  2. I have always been a big Potter fan. I've seen every movie on opening day and read every single book at least three times.

     

    I was never too excited about the idea of a spin off but I went in quite optimistic.

     

    The film is a mixed bag. I believe it ends better than it starts. The four leads are decent with Dan Fogler being the most endearing of the bunch.

    The themes of the movie are interesting but there isn't enough time to explore all of them and it feels jammed in.

    I feel there is a huge misfire with the reveal of Grindewald as Graves was really turning into a interesting and imposing villain.

     

    The main problem with this film is that it feels like a prologue, plot points and character motivations are teased but never explored because they are clearly waiting to use them for the sequel.

    Therefore it becomes hard to be invested in the movie.

     

    I am intrigued by the idea of the Fantastic Beasts franchise.....but I am not sold on the execution nor its addition to the potter universe.

     

    3/5

    he got a new dog at the end. i think it's the same dog but i don't remember.

     

    I just remembered.

     

    This really was the ultimate white people revenge movie.

     

    All for a dog (his girl got killed too but I feel he was more upset by the dog)

    There's a difference between understanding horror and wanting to get your name on a poster to drum up attention for your site. All they had to do was ask a couple of guys at horror sites to give their movie a glowing review and promise that their quotes would feature on the poster and in the trailers in the months coming up to the release.

     

    I'm not one to accuse anyone without evidence but the core selling point of the movie has been these 'AMAZING' reviews. I've seen TV spots and posters with these reviews plastered all over, sometimes in bigger font size than the actual title of the movie.
