Forget what critics say. The 2nd Part is twice Fantastic than the first.
Regardless of the fact that I am the biggest Wizarding World fan in the whole universe I am writing a unbiased review through points:
1. Cinematography: Dark and intense little bit like Harry Potter and Half Blood Prince. Very very good than the previous part.5/5
2. Visual Effects: Brilliant and ofcourse Magical.The beasts are portrayed very beautifully and exotically.Unlike the previous film the beasts really look much real. The good news is the movie is overflooded with spells and magic in almost every scene.The Magic looks real and flows readily from wand unlike the first part.The actors also handle wand efficiently unlike the first parts where there was poor handling of wand. But in Hogwarts scene the camera shakes spoiling the fun.4.5/5
3.Acting:There is not very much to act as there are many new characters on the top of the old ones.But still the Acting of all the cast is good.Depp is looking and acting awesome.It is very surprising and interesting that he fully justified Grindelwald and made him look as if he wants to help magicians as if he is good.This is really very good.Law's performance is also good. Sudol has acted emotional scenes really very well.Her acting was good.Redmayne, Waterston,Turner and Kravitz have also done good acting.5/5
4.Story: Regardless of what the critics say the Story is really very very good.Very much better than part 1.Yes it gets a bit muddled but all becomes clear in the end.There are many plot twists and shocking reveals.5/5
5.Music: There is not much music.I preferred Alexandre Desplat (Deathly Hallows part 1and part2 music composer) to JN Howard.
But still music is good and usage of Hedwig's theme in the Hogwarts scene is particularly good. Sounding is also very very good.4/5
6.Ending:The last 30 minutes are worth your every grievance( if any).While the movie is good the ending is just INCREDIBLE.
Verdict :Forget what the critics say. Although the story is little bit muddled but gets straighten out in the 2nd half.Tje movie is Entertaining, Stunning Brilliantly Magical and with its Extreme ending and plot twists and shocking reveals the movie is Fantastic and More Fantastic.
Ratings:4/5
