Maybe I'm just prejudiced because I saw and enjoyed all the Harry Potter movies, but I found Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them to be a total bore. The filmography is okay, with good angles and a clear picture. My issue comes from the storyline. I appreciate the idea of trying to bring the wizarding world to America, and to New York, but the whole story is extremely tedious and boring. I'm currently still watching it; I'm not even halfway through and I think I'm going to discard it. The magic is gone.
