Reviews:
'It's spectacular and promising, though at first exposure its characters (human and otherwise) are often as grating as charming.'
'Fantastic Beasts is perfectly acceptable mainstream fare. A refreshingly non-cynical family-friendly film - it has enough charm, great new characters, and entertaining scenes.'
'The film strains considerably under the weight of all its plot lines-it's never fun to be the movie with the origin story.'

This film is mainly full of positive reviews, however there are still a few viewers who don't like it as they think its just writing of the Harry Potter series.

Reviews:
'This movie was so bad that it actually made me angry. I didn't think it was possible to make a more ridiculously stupid disaster movie than 2012.
'Hilariously dumb and manipulative'
'This was one of the worst examples of Hollywood smearing money on something until a room full of idiots gives texted approvals.'
'I LOVED it on the screen in reality i hope it never happens here but we all know its just matter of time.' 
'I liked the storyline though and the visual effects were awesome!'

This film is mainly negative reviews, this is because people think that its all blown out of proportion and it way over the top and isn't realistic at all. However there are still some viewers who like the action in the film.
