Well let me start by saying do not compare this to Harry Potter as that saga is a masterpiece based on books written with alot of time and effort.This movie starts of well with the prison escape scene which was quite entertaining but what it lacked is any sort of feeling of fear or dread for the main villain Grindelwald,the movie later picks up very slowly with scenes which were quite boring,introducing characters after characters and bringing other under developed characters from the previous movie expecting us to care about them.The previous movie had something nice which they should have concentrated more on in this movie,was newts relationship with his many creatures,they had quite a bit of that in this movie too but they introduced so many new characters thats they overshadowed the creatures.The plot was a bit odd,it felt kind of empty,like only Credence plotline was the only thing you cared about,which is weird because the name of the movie is crimes of Grindelwald yet Grindelwald motives ,the acts he does was hardly explained.Now the good parts they do bring up nicely is well the visuals,how even in the wizarding world people can be cruel,racist etc and people just want freedom from all this so they resort to even following a person like Grindelwald ,The sacrifices/choices you make for those you love.These parts were beautifully done,I am also greatful they didn't ruin any of the settled lore of Harry Potter like star wars did ,infact they expanded on it which was nice.i would recommend watching this movie as a complete saga as this one feels like an incomplete story,but other then the slow start the movie is fun to watch.
