It has been made with a lot of style and skill and comes across as much more than the simple cash-in opportunity that it might have initially appeared to be when it was first announced.

Like the first chapter of any story, it has the burden of making you want to come back; and not just for the desperate satisfaction of knowing what's next

This new movie, while slight, is also dazzling, diverting and wonderful fun.

Towards the end, the film gets a little too action-packed, with the city of New York (once again) on the verge of destruction. But there are enough moments of magic in the rest of the movie to make up for it.

The great fantasy in Fantastic Beasts is that everything can be put back how it was, no matter what happened.

Rowling has a voluminous imagination and Yates keeps things humming along, although, as was also true of many Potter movies, there is often too much of a good thing.

The film wants so badly to be fun and silly, but I'm sorry to say it's an old-fashioned dud.

In all, the movie is a cunning and peppy surprise, dulled only by the news that no less than four sequels await.

At least the monsters, when compared with their co-stars, have some personality.

A lavish visual feast that nonetheless fails to cast any new spells over its audience.

The film strains considerably under the weight of all its plot lines-it's never fun to be the movie with the origin story.

To its considerable credit, Fantastic Beasts is not the Potter retread it could easily-and very profitably-have been.
