Ben Meyers’ Rating: 3.8|5.0 Starsììì Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore—has an interesting storyline that has good to suitable presentation, portrayal, and acting. Beware of trying to fit this film into the Harry Potter stories despite Dumbledore's presence in the storyline. It could almost be a stand-alone movie with the previous movies from the Fantastic Beast series as points of reference rather than actual prequels. Jude Law reprises his role as Dumbledore, Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander. Johnny Depp did not reprise his role as Gellert Grindelwald. That role went to Mads Mikkelsen who fits the character better. This movie is a bit odd, quite dark, and unclear. Film Poster Courtesy of Google Images Storyline Albus

world of wizards. Additional Thanks Thank you to Director David Yates for directing effort.
