Not a great film, but it has some good aspects

Rating: 6/10 (5 January 2018)

I didn't like the movie, I am not a fan of wizards or Rowling's work, but I decided to watch it to see Rowling's work as a screenwriter, which I found not good.
Though there are some details in the film which I found good; like production, how they make everything fit the historical context which the story is based on, for example the briefcase (being the resource of Newt's magical products, being relevant to the story of the motion picture), also the production design, costume design, I like how the played with the colors, and used some specific ones to create a good photography.
One of the reasons why I don't like a lot Sci-Fi or Fantasy movies is because of the use of many special effects, but I was quite pleased with those shown in the movie.
I do think the acting, direction and screenplay are poor, could be better.
