![]() There are so many wonderful movies released every month, that it becomes difficult to see all of them. So, it should be of no surprise to you, that it is also difficult to review all of them. This is why we like to pause at least once a year, and rewind to one such movie. This month, we will be talking about Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald. Released way back in November 2018 this is the second of five Wizarding World movies that Warner Bros. has announced. And we highly recommend it. The cinematography is breathtaking! The soundtrack is mesmerizing! The special effects are seamless! You don’t need to have studied filmmaking or any of the arts to recognize that this movie is visually and emotionally stunning. It is perfect immersion into a world that feels like it is just under the fabric of our Muggle reality. We again get to follow the antics of Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne)as he interacts with amazing animals that are found in the Wizarding World. These are animals that we Muggles don’t see, and so it is truly mystifying observing them and their habitats. Newt isn’t only taking care of animals in this movie, though that is obviously his first love. He is also working to stop Gellert Grindelwald (Jonny Depp) from taking over not only the magical world, but also the non-magical world. Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald is funny, sad, and a bit scary. Rated PG-13 for some sequences of fantasy action. This is an action packed movie. There are wand battles, and animal attacks. Violence and destruction and death, means that this movie is not for the faint of heart, or for children under 12.
