Theater review: if you like CGI works, you have to go to the big screen! The beginning was so eye catching and hold my breath. (Although I wasn't able to remember the prison escapee Grindelwald was the one who got caught from the first movie.) To be honest, the plots are kinda messy for anyone who is not a novel fan of JK Rowling, even I watched the whole series movies of Harry Potters and Fantastic Beast 1, and I still have troubles to figure out the storyline. Enter Fantastic Beast 2, the confusion built up more by unable to catch the characters' moves and the plot developments, I confused, I doubt myself: did I skip any plots or dialogues? But I did not, the movie has so many store-lines to tell, it breaks down into so many different pieces for different characters, made it uncomplete as an individual movie. The novels might have a largescale with many epic stories. But a 2 hours movie can never tell all of them; Audiences can't tell which is primary because the karma was made up with so many causes and effects. Fantastic Beast 2 is a fans mobie, a super long extended trailer, a novel image supplement that built with amazing CGI, however and anyway, this is not an individual movie that tells a complete story.

Lastly, the movie only tells a little about Newt and his beasts, wasn't the novel name Fantastic Beast and it should focus on Newt and his beasts?
