Painfully mediocre second-half brings its downfall

Rating: 3/10 (9 May 2020)

Everything is very enjoyable until you are presented with the rubbish 'antagonist' of the story, who is given as much character development as his unnamed, forgettable army of 'evil comrades'.
That's when the mystical world the makers tried to build all comes crashing down. Everything, from the over-graphicised setting to Mordo's descent, starts to actually feel artificial and forced.
The only thing that's stays consistently good in the whole film is the Cloak (which has more of a personality than the villain, Kaecilius).
