lingering sense of alienation

Some movies can talk about artistic conception, atmosphere, and characters even if the subject matter of the story is not my thing, but this one has nothing.

First, I really can't enter this kind of setting of the coexistence of monsters, wizards, and humans. It feels like something is separated. Second, the screenwriter did not plan to take care of the original "Harry Potter" movies like me. I haven't seen all of them For the audience, narrow the point of view directly, well, I have patience to ponder the cause and effect myself, but the story is procrastinated and verbose. After watching it for a long time, it is not the Medieval Witch Hunt (New Salem), with a little psychoanalysis. On the loss of the role of the beloved mother (Mary Lou Barebone), the father (Graves) refusing to trigger the anxiety of the subject (Credence), depression and defense... Then New York turned on its head.

Wait...In addition to taming and caring for animals, Newt finally released the most powerful one to make the whole city forget, and even Fuling (mistakenly) was not him, what? The strongest golden finger is not the protagonist to open? Although Eddie Redmayne's performance is also outside the overall style, it doesn't matter, with Tina at the bottom, can this character be any more annoying?

Two and a half stars for the movie, plus half a star for the jewelry display model Nifgler and the pouting wood spirit (Picket).

    Who translated "there is only one like you" into "there is only one like you"? How bitter is the translator's heart! ??

    The story is very poor, I think the biggest highlight is set in 1926. +1s for a certain magical animal.
