boring and overly complicated with absolutely no character development...extremely disappointed. What a load of tosh. Don't want to spoil but they used one character as an exposition device all the way through and then sacked off at the end like it was nothing. Meh acting, less than exciting story. Bloody awful lot. Just cashing in on the Harry Potter name .just really boring.

For a while it is exactly what movies are supposed to be ... entertaining! I liked the unusual animals but the magic imagery is a poor copy of the HP imagery. After a while the beasts and animals are just more HP type animals. Unlike HP story lines which always had stories within stories within stories this is shallow by comparison.
