Perfect and amazing movie to watch

"The Crimes of Grindelwald" is a beautiful film and introduces very dark themes, however it isn't as well-constructed in narrative terms as we might like.

2 hours of my life I will never get back. To be fair, this film did have some good moments, but on the whole it was an utter snooze fest. Another case of too much CGI, and not enough story. For the life of me, I can't work out why Johnny Depp has suddenly started dressing like Johnny Rotten from the Sex Pistols.

I was really looking forward to this film, because I usually love all the Harry Potter films, and the first Fantastic Beats. So what went wrong here, I do not know. I hope the next one will be better.

(I must warn you that my negative point of view of the film wasn't helped by the fact that someone in the cinema stunk of poo and I could hardly breathe throughout the whole film, which made a boring and long film seem even longer. Therefore, it might be slightly better than I give it credit. But even so, I still didn't enjoy it.)

So finally JK Rowling acknowledged her biggest flaw writing-wise the black and white morality. Not all Slytherins are evil or wish to harm others. Also, Grindelwald makes Voldemort look like amateur hour. Really great movie and extremely dark, not quite Infinity War dark, but certainly up there. So many Harry Potter references and you further see the more adult side of the world.

[spoiler]I enjoyed it and even think it addressed what people worried about, that Dumbledore did have more than friendship with Grindelwald and also the scenes are subtle which is less insulting. I loved it and actually prefer to it the other movie because I love the HP World, but dislike the Harry Potter books, so love when you see the world outside of Hogwarts.[/spoiler]

I was pretty fried when I watched it. It was pretty decent, it's getting too much hate.

Felt like the Deathly Hallows Part 1. Nothing happens after the good opening ten minutes. Purely a set up for the next movie in the franchise. Disappointing overall.

The plot is so convoluted and boring that it makes me not care for anything that goes on. I don't really like any of the new or existing characters and this does nothing to make me like them more. The only parts that I thought were any good was Jude Law's Dumbledore. I just want to see his story and him being a teacher. Everything else can go. Also just a nitpick but this movie was was too dark and not properly lit. It was hard to see in some scenes.

_The Crimes of Grindelwald's_ flashy VFX and endearing characters do not make up for its cluttered, often-nonsensical plot and poor development, making it the worst film in the Wizarding World series.
