Over deze film

De Fantastic Beasts-filmreeks is geschreven door J.K. Rowling en speelt zich af in de tijd voor Harry Potter. Aan het einde van de eerste film wordt de machtige duistere magiër Gellert Grindelwald (Johnny Depp) gevangengenomen door de MACUSA (Magical Congress of the United States of America) met hulp van Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne). Grindelwald voert zijn dreigement uit en weet te ontsnappen. Hij rekruteert volgelingen die veelal niet weten wat zijn echte doel is: tovenaars van zuiver bloed ertoe aanzetten over alle niet-magische wezens te heersen. In een poging de plannen van Grindelwald te dwarsbomen, vraagt Albus Perkamentus (Jude Law) zijn voormalige leerling Newt Scamander om hulp. Die gaat akkoord, maar is zich niet bewust van de gevaren die op hem wachten. Liefde en loyaliteit, zelfs tussen goede vrienden en familieleden, worden op de proef gesteld in een magische wereld die steeds verder verdeeld raakt.

Beoordelingen en reviews

Very hard narrative to follow. The only redeeming quality I saw was the CG. At least the 'Fantastic Beasts' were well done, but beyond that I wish I didn't buy it.

So good! Awesome storyline! The twists were great as well! Despite the hate it got, most people said it was bad and "it wasn't their type of movie"(don't judge movies on wether it is your "type" or not) So sad that Depp will not be returning as Grindelwald for the next one, he did a great job and nobody will be able to replace him. Totally recommend!

I love these films. I loved the speed the diff between the UK and American witchin world. I loved the lead characters and the other characters were rich with personality. I don't know why people r saying it was horrible. Just what did they expect? I loved to see a different slant on Rowling's mind. I'd love more of adult stories. We have seen enough children's stories. Stories of diff worlds.Dobies world and friends, the other schools etc.i hope the writer never loses her imagin & enthu bec ofu
