FANTASTIC BEASTS: THE CRIMES OF GRINDELWALD (2018) REVIEW

This movie is in the continuation of 'Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them'. The story has many things to offer, therefore in some sequences, audience may feel that a lot of information are provided in small amount of time. Also, audience also needs to know some information or ester eggs provided in 'Harry Potter' series. Cinematography is pretty good and visual effects are impressive as they convince the authenticity of that location and characters (especially creatures/beasts). The character Grindelwald played by Johnny Depp is amazing as it looks creepy and totally shines in the entire movie. Albus Dumbledore played by Jude Law has also done a great job as we can clearly see his emotional connection with Grindelwald. The mystery that movie unfolds in the end is unforgettable and will make audience think on it, after watching the movie. In all this movie is a good mixture of humor and action. We can't say that this movie was without flaws, as there were characters like Albus Dumbledore and Nagini which required more screen time for character development, but considering that this movie was a foundation for the coming 3 parts, its a very good movie. And I'ts a must watch for 'potterheads' as this movie successfully satisfies them.

MY RATING: 7.5/10
