I'm surprised there is no thread on this right now...

Anyone else see it? What did you think of it?

I enjoyed the film quite a bit. Not going to spoil anything.

I would rate it an 8/10.




It was a little tough to get into the wizarding world in New York. Whereas in Harry Potter, you have a little bit of London and a LOT of wizarding world. In this, you have a LOT of New York, and only a little bit of wizarding world.
I'm nitpicking, but it just didn't give the same feeling.


Credence seemed just a bit too powerful.
Graves spoiler was obvious.
Credence spoiler was also obvious.

I know.

You didn't understand what I said. The book was released in 2009, and it wasn't a novel.


I'm just curious what they are going to do for the next 4 movies. It will end with Dumbledore vs Grindelwald.

Don't know, I love the Harry Potter series, maybe because I grew up with it.
But I'm not hyped for the new pentalogie and I got no intention in watching it.

If you're a fan of HP you'll like the movie. It's not some random side story, it's a prequel to the original books, centered around Grindelwald & probably dumbledore
