Gellert Grindelwald managed to escape from prison. Grindelwald began to gather his followers and invited other wizards to fight the humans. The only person who was able to stop him was Albus Dumbledore, who was none other than Grindelwald's blood friend. For this time, with Dumbledore, Scamander tried to stop the crimes that Grindelwald was about to commit.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwaldhas a deeper and much denser conflict than the first film series. However, all of that went directionlessly. The density of conflict does not originate from Grindelwald, but rather there are many interests that enter each other and are present from the personal conflicts of each character so that Grindelwald's crimes are not the main concern. Neither the conflict nor Grindelwald's own character gets enough attention to show the evil he is about to make. The number of different conflicts should be a series of related conflicts. Instead, the conflicts become the ones that collide with each other. It is unfortunate in executing to create such a dense problem.

The problem between Cresedence and Lestrange was so exaggerated and gained a lot of attention. If you look at the course of the conflict between the two people, it has nothing to do with the crime that Grindelwald should have caused. The existence of Leta Lestrange's conflict makes the story of this film unclear. It becomes difficult to accept what should be the conflict in this film. It shouldn't be the key to this film. In fact,Grindelwald's misgivings became less visible. Hanya threats and persuasive solicitations that feel real.

Although lacking in story, it does not close the charm and appearance of Johnny Depp as Grindelwald. Perform well by looking dangerous and full of evil. How he dialogues gives a nuance that reinforces how dangerous and how serious Grindelwald is in fulfilling his plans. However, the performance is not accompanied by a good story.
