Am I the only one to read Hogwarts a History? You cannot apparate or disapparate onto Hogwarts grounds! I love watching movies in the historical genre, so when I heard J.K Rowling wrote another biography, I rushed to go watch it with my parents in a muggle movie hall. The Crimes of Grindelwald has not stuck to the rules and experiences Harry, Ron and I had at Hogwarts. I understand that you were trying to make it flashier for muggles, but muggles (I just recently found out) read the biographies on our lives too! Another thing I need to clarify is that every spell, potion, or action in magic always has a meaning. When the crowd apparated out of the cemetery was extremely confused. If the crowd could apparate, then why couldn't Newt and Tina. It could be that the Ministry had relaxed the charms or Grindelwalds spells were too strong, but working in the Ministry myself, I can tell you firsthand the security is very strong. It is unlikely Grindelwald had more power. I appreciate how the movie clearly showed the effects of every spell. Additionally, after 2 movies about the obscureal, I'm still confused about it's role. I understand that you are trying to keep the element of mystery around it, but I think us viewers should have at least a better understanding of what it is. The storyline is alright but I feel as though it is branching off at certain points. The introduction was very exciting! I was at the edge of my seat while Grindelwald was escaping! After the escapade, I watched as Newt refused the job at the Ministry. I was very curious to why he turned it down. I actually really liked Leta Lestrange! Though I did get into a bit of trouble with Bellatrix Lestrange, I couldn't even hold a grudge against her! She was beautiful, funny, and easygoing. Also I admire how she keeps her hair from being overly bushy! After the Ministry rejection, I watched Newt care for all his creatures. I have a friend, Luna Lovegood, who would love to see all of those fantastic creatures. It was also truly fascinating to see the difference between how Grindelwald gathered his followers, versus Voldemort. Queenie and Jacob's love story is very sweet and I want to see how their relationship blossoms. Overall I give the beginning an A+ After the introduction, that's when I felt the story spiraled out of control. Firstly, they didn't put much background on Nagini and Credence. That made me a bit puzzled. Secondly, the character of Yusuf came very suddenly and didn't put the amount of impact he was supposed to have in the story. Lastly, Dumbledore version as his younger self was perfectly portrayed. I just feel as though we could have learned a bit more about his relationship with Grindelwald. I was so curious to know after Rita Skeeter published that horrible book about him. For Dumbledore development, Rowling had the choice between right and easy, but unfortunately she chose easy. I love that J.K Rowling is giving Grindelwald some attention in the form of a movie. It's so fascinating to learn all about him! But as a muggleborn, the magical world was very special to me, so I would hate for other kids like me to get the wrong understanding. Thank you for reading my opinion on this movie. Sincerely, Hermione Granger, Minister of Magic
