Review of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) by Owen B — 12 Feb 2017
Fantastic Beasts is a much-needed break from the continuity of the Harry Potter series. While it may take place in the universe of our favorite wizard, it feels refreshing because you can tell how much it's just a spinoff.
The ending was great because it didn't feel like it was setting up anything. Even though there will be a handful of sequels, Fantastic Beasts is one of those films that could definitely work as a standalone entry anyway.
I also like how the world is designed, giving us a very imaginative adaptation of America's Roaring 20s era. The food, industrial landscapes, and colors all paint a very lifelike version of a very important time in American history.
