At Fantastic Beasts we got a long awaited return to Harry Potter universe. At the beginning everything seems to be as it should be. Movie looks an sound great (even with short score from HP movies), but somehow the original feeling blaze with its absence. Set and scenery looks great, actors are good and even era of 1920's recession be present, but somehow it all feels just too shallow. It doesn't help even how hard you try to believe and imagine that the beasts are just magical beasts. There are simply too may characters and their essence looks too plastic. Even their absence as nature conversation point of view feels vain. They are too external to feel any sympathy for them.

Eddie Redmayne is a good actor, but as a role of Scamander he feels just like a dizzy freak. It may be a original meaning of character, but to me, I haven't read original story, he feels too light headed character. Movie ha s a lot of scenery from original Harry Potter movies, which is per se a good thing, but at the other hand it excluded some of the audience, who are not so familiar with original movie universe. Unfortunately movie feels too shallow and unclear and it never rises to level of original Harry Potter movies. The biggest filament for it may be J.K Rowling's role as a author and screenwriter. I'm sure that all characters are familiar to her, but sometimes it is better to see all of it out of the box and hand the screen writing to someone else, not so familiar with original story.

Hopefully with sequel makers has a courage to challenge the audience to re familiarize for new characters. Fantastic Beasts surely is a satisfying experience to all of the biggest fans of HP universe. I haven' t read all the books tens of times with different languages as the biggest fans of the series and I have to be content of movies and to me Fantastic Beasts is a little too hard to focus, even the illusion is made as well it is. Digital character are just too much and vain. Unfortunately, but true to me.
