Movie Reviews
Reviews:
"The sequel has better and at times galvanizing special effects, a darker tone and a high-stakes battle between good and evil. Best of all, its characters are more vibrantly drawn, and tangled in relationships that range from delightful to lethal." - 11/08/2018 Hollywood Reporter
3 stars out of 5 -- "[I]t’s a film stuffed with characters, big moments and impressive spectacle but still feels bizarrely underpowered." - 11/08/2018 Empire
"Most of the surface pleasures of filmic Potterdom have survived intact..." - 11/08/2018 Variety
"[Depp] finds a stillness and a resonant, villainous depth to his voice." - 11/16/2018 RogerEbert.com
3 stars out of 5 -- "[T]he scope of Rowling’s imaginative reach cannot be denied. And as the film inches closer to Potter territory, the pulse quickens." - 11/15/2018 Rolling Stone
5 stars out of 5 -- "Yates truly understands what makes the Wizarding World work. Each frame is filled to the brim with detail, whether it’s goblins cleaning windows on floating lifts or a contraption hoovering round the Ministry of Magic." - 11/06/2018 Total Film
