From the manufacturer
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is an all-new adventure returning us to the wizarding world created by J.K. Rowling. Academy Award winner Eddie Redmayne (The Theory of Everything) stars in the central role of wizarding world magizoologist Newt Scamander, under the direction of David Yates, who helmed the last four Harry Potter blockbusters. The film marks the screenwriting debut of J.K. Rowling, whose beloved Harry Potter books were adapted into the top-grossing film franchise of all time. Her script was inspired by the Hogwarts textbook Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, written by her character Newt Scamander.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them opens in 1926 as Newt Scamander has just completed a global excursion to find and document an extraordinary array of magical creatures. Arriving in New York for a brief stopover, he might have come and gone without incident were it not for a No-Maj (American for Muggle) named Jacob, a misplaced magical case, and the escape of some of Newt’s fantastic beasts, which could spell trouble for both the wizarding and No-Maj worlds.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (Blu-ray) (BD)
Explore a new era of the Wizarding World before Harry Potter. Something mysterious is leaving a path of destruction in the streets of 1926 New York, threatening to expose the wizarding community. Newt Scamander arrives in the city nearing the end of a global excursion to research and rescue magical creatures. When unsuspecting No-Maj Jacob Kowalski inadvertently lets some of Newt’s beasts loose, a band of unlikely heroes must recover the missing beasts before they come to harm, but their mission puts them on a collision course with Dark forces.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
1) Too many storylines going at once that had no necessary intersection with each other. Searching for magical creatures to create a zoo-in-a-case is its own story; Grindelwald and the Obscurial is its own story. Each of these could have happened without any need for the other.
2) Actor choices could have been improved. I could not understand or hear many of the lines delivered by the primary actor because they were mumbled. The director should have fixed this and redone the scenes. Also I don't enjoy actors who point their head's toward the ground while they are acting. It constricts the throat, we can't hear what they are saying, and we can't see their mouths move to try and decipher what they are saying. It also gets tiresome looking at someone looking at the ground.
3) So much potential with the Obscurial and we got almost zero information about how it happens, why it happens, why it happened to this character, etc. It's briefly mentioned that it's when someone tries to hold back their magical powers or suppresses them, but based on the destructive force we saw in this movie the Obscurial is more powerful than Voldemort or Dumbledore or anything we saw in the HP movies, and it should have been a MUCH bigger deal.
4) Exposition - I am not a fond fan of the sweeping monologues that are overly dramatic and don't move the storyline forward. The ending when Grindelwald in disguise is on the train platform lecturing...get on with it!
5) Get on with it! In general! The movie was an hour too long...I'm not even sure that anything of relevance happened within the first hour of the movie other than setting up the third storyline that I didn't even mention yet and that's the love story with the mind reader and the muggle. Third movie right there - or at least a short story.
The movie suffered from lack of an editorial eye on the script, and lack of a directorial eye on the implementation.
It is unlikely that I will watch the sequel given how rough the first was. It's sad really - because it held absolutely nothing of the magic and adventure that we saw from the Harry Potter adaptations.
Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is not burdened by a lot of source material (beyond the "textbook") to muddy the waters. Just lovely to see an unexpected backstory that (eventually) ties into the Harry Potter series without having a predetermined image in my mind of the characters or how the plot was handled/interpreted by the film makers. Also adds depth to our understanding of the background in the main Harry Potter canon. Looking forward to revelations as the remaining adventures unfold in future films.
I've also found that this film is much easier to watch with those who aren't familiar with the Harry Potter series as it truly is a charming, stand alone story.
I guess what I like about this is the way Newt goes about collecting endangered animals and as an animal lover I cannot see how anyone could down this film just because there's not Potter or Moldyvort in it. Meh. They had their time and they are finished. Perhaps Ms. Rowling will write about Potter's kids in the future but I hope she finds other wizards and witches in her world to write about. Maybe even do a series on how Hogwarts came about?
Regardless this is a FUN film and the action is good, at times though it can be a bit slow however such is to be expected in these fantasy films. Overall I recommend it to anyone who enjoys mythology, zoology and crazy wizards. ;)

The Fantastic Beast was a feast however to me and my family. Really nice to meet a new set of characters in a slightly different setting with ties to the original material.
Our kids thoroughly enjoyed the movie with it's many funny moments.
Enjoyable journey that follows the introvert Newt Scamander through gothic New York during the jazz-age in a visually stunning spectacle, with a recognizable soundtrack. It's great that the story liberated itself from Hogwart's that started to feel increasingly tired.
I'm sure there could be complains about the story line or how this movie clashes with the Potter canon, but we had a great evening of high quality entertainment with the family.
We buy 3D Blu Ray’s where possible. You pay up for it but they enhance a great family-film evening. Fantastic Beasts in 3D looks very sharp and natural on our fairly high-end Oled LG TV, that gets supported by proper surround sound. I must say I tend to like 3D viewing more at home than in cinema’s these days. And this movie in 3D is particularly well-done; all looks very pleasant and natural to watch without excessive blast and parts flying towards your face.
The set also includes a digital copy. Nice in a sense. But I get very frustrated by the fact that I now have to run 4 different apps from movie studios each filled with their own digital copy format; iTunes, Flixster/Ultraviolet, Googleplay ect. And so far there is no proper way to integrate my collections of digital copies. Moreover, most will require wifi, which is not always available when travelling. Until this is being addressed these digital copies remain a half-baked freebie in support of self-copies.
