This setup of a film introduces us to some great characters and plot points that will be the focus of future films without giving much away here, which was a nice touch. Yates and Rowling fully immerse you into the magical world of wizards again, with different spells, fun buildings and creatures, and hints of bigger back stories that are not yet fully told.
Fantastic Beasts is a very dark film, although it is filled with wonder and amazing creatures. Returning to the director's chair after helming the last four Potters, filmmaker David Yates knows the world of Harry Potter very well and leaves the kid jokes at the curb. They work for the U.S.A.’s version of the Ministry of Magic, called the Magical Congress of the United States of America, which is led by a sinister, yet conflicted man named Percival Graves (Colin Farrell), who believes Newt is actually co-conspiring with Gellert Grindewald. Scamander finds help on his quest with two sisters named Tina and Queenie Goldstein. group to take out Scamander and other wizards and witches. Meanwhile, evil wizard Gellert Grindewald has teamed with anti-wizard U.S. We meet Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) as he travels from England to the USA to set a beast of a bird free in Arizona, but because Scamander is a bumbling, clumsy young man, he loses his literal briefcase full of beasts in New York City. In other words, before Harry Potter became the Boy Who Lived, this whole fantastical tale took place. Instead of modern day London or Hogwarts, Fantastic Beasts takes place in 1920s New York, which is around the same time that King Kong would have been climbing buildings. Rowlings' Fantastic Beasts and Where to find Them is the first in a set of five upcoming movies. Grab your wands and spell books, wizards n' witches, because the world of Harry Potter is back for the long haul.
