While it may have some redeeming qualities, overall the script is terrible. Confused writing creates a jumbled up story, lame dialogue, and an overall lack of direction that left me groaning and rolling my eyes. The acting is alright, but consider...
...fewer fantastic beasts, more stuffy political plotting and electoral malpractice.
Read full review at The Guardian...let’s just say it really earns that teasing title, and that the series gains some significant emotional heft.
Read full review at GamesradarStill sad that Johnny Depp has been replaced, but Mads Mikkelsen does a great job as usual. The missing star, is for the missing Depp.
Just disappointed in the lack of “fantastic beasts” also the script was just 🤢 - I’m glad I didn’t pay to watch this in the cinema (but on HBO max)
I hope this is the end of this cash cow saga.
...an enjoyable ride for the wizarding world fans.

Read full review at Chicago Sun Times...there is magic here. Dan Fogler as No-Maj/Muggle baker Jacob Kowalski is as ever, thoroughly entertaining.
Read full review at Nme...director David Yates and screenwriters Steve Kloves and J.K. Rowling have crafted a straightforward political drama that weaves in the importance of magical creatures even in international elections.
Read full review at Common Sense Media...with solid action and moments of genuine heart, it delivers a little light in the Wizarding World’s darkest hour.
Read full review at Empire...it's a relief to discover that the narrative is far more streamlined this time around, with a fairly contained storyline that for the most part manages to be relatively coherent.
