Just came back from the cinema. I liked it, but it's no Harry Potter for me. I was expecting it to be my #1 favorite movie this year but that's not the case anymore. That's what you get for hyping something up too much I guess =P

Oh, speaking about the movie itself, I think it had too many action scenes, hopefully the sequels will tone those down a bit. Overall, I'd give it a 3/5. There's definitely room for improvement and with four more movies coming, I think this series will get better over time.

I feel like I watched a different movie to everyone else. Despite being a HP fan, I went in with no expectations or hype, but still thought it was terrible.

The movie was filled with awkward silences, most scenes dragged on much longer than they should just to give Newt or Tina a chance to stare blankly into the void while other characters wait with the patience of a saint for some kind of response.

Newt was a boring version of The Doctor,and Tina was the worst main character from recent memory (how she was supposed to have been competent enough to be a working witch let alone an Auror is beyond me).

And plot holes. Half of the movies problems could have been sorted with accio.
