Review - Fantastic beasts and where to find them

Rating: 4/10 (27 January 2017)

Movie started with a nice music which reminds you that you are still part of harry potter universe. Then comes the big bad dark wizard to show his presence. The movie then takes a softer turn and introduces "Newt" (Eddie Redmayne), a young wizard with a bag full of beasts. A British in America. His acting was actually quite good. The beasts of Newt were visually spectacular and interesting.
Then the dark mass was brought into story and Colin Farrel was after it. He was using a young boy to catch the mass to gain more power (can't tell you the whole story, can I?). The whole part was boring.
Along the story line, Mr. Kowalski's character was introduced. His love story and mix up in all the magical story was better than most of the movie (including the magical congress of USA).
What I liked most? Visual effects were very good and keeps reminding you of harry potter. The love story and humor of Newt and Mr. Kowalski was good. Revealing of the dark wizard at the end and the actor who played it was the best part. Nope.not telling you who he was, but he booked me for the upcoming second part of the movie.
Overall, I think it was a bit of a disappointment. But the acting of all the characters was not bad.
