My partner and I saw the original film - "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", and found it to be at once clever, funny, and extremely entertaining.
Because of our enjoyment of the first movie, we were looking forward to the sequel. Sadly, we were deeply disappointed, and came very close to walking out a couple of times before it finished. The only thing that kept us in our seats was the huge amount of money we'd laid out for tickets to the 3-D version.
The movie seldom made sense, and even when it did, it was only marginal. Johnny Depp is a highly overrated actor, and he seemed to be sleepwalking through this, hit latest role.
It is my understanding that this sequel was number two of a planned series of five films. Needless to say, we won't gamble hard earned dollars on the rest of them.
I guess I'll wait until it's on streaming then & not waste the $$.
