Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

CriticsCritics: 70
AudienceAudience: 7.4

In 1926, a British wizard arrives in New York with a magically expanded briefcase filled with unusual creatures and their habitats. After several escape, he joins forces with new acquaintances while magical authorities investigate, placing further strain on relations between magical and non-magical communities.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like family-friendly fantasy, magical creatures, and expanded wizarding worlds, especially Harry Potter and The Hobbit; Not for you if you need a tightly focused plot or deep character arcs.
