Harry Potter for Adults

Rating: 9/10 (15 January 2017)

Just 25 minutes into the movie, and I thought, this is so much better than Harry Potter, or should I say, Popper. I know that many adults loved the Harry Potter movies and/or books, mostly because we are still kids at heart. Not that there's anything wrong with it :) Childhood was mostly great too. However, movie after movie and/or book after book, it was childish, albeit Harry Potter and his friends kept growing, the story, nonetheless, remained the same. Great! No quarrels there! But this is better; Fantastic Beasts is so much more intelligent, and entertaining to boot. It's almost magical, and the almost is key since the movie never becomes childish. Excellent acting and directing, amazing visuals, and based on a terrific book by the same author, beautiful J. K. Rowling.
