Magical Beasts and Where To Find Them

7/10

I actually did like the film

but...........

I was a little underwhelmed , and I'll admit , it left me a bit confused at the end , this is suppose to be the first of five films , but it felt very much like a stand alone film , now that might be because it sounds like JK Rowling is writing them as they go , and when they filmed this film this one , they might not have even known where it was going

Having just read about the upcoming sequel , sounds like their not even sure if the 4 main characters in this film will even be the main characters in the next films or not

I found the four main characters likeable , but kind of generic , considering the catastrophic events that were going on around , no sense of emergency what so ever

Then there was Colin Farrell , never been a fan

Again , I liked the film and now curious to see where it goes from here , and I do hope hope the four main characters have a main part in it , but I thought I heard JK Rowlings say that the five films take place over a 19 year time span , so we'll see

I think my favorite part of the movie was the look of 1920's New York
