"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them", Thursday November 17th 2016
We saw "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" which is a bit like "What's Up Doc" with the mixed-up suitcases sequences, in a magical setting via lots of blue screen. There are certain modern day cultural references in the movie with Madam President etc. But the predatory Percival Graves (Colin Farrell) grooming Credence (Ezra Miller) is very off putting. I can see why it got an M rating. Two or three scenes of these predatory scenes should be edited back to make it more accessible for a PG rating. One good laugh in it. Great computer graphics. It was filmed in four locations in the UK and the way they recreate New York in 1926 is wonderful. Loved the supporting couple. The best part was seeing our neighbour's dog make a starring appearance! Go Jade! (Obviously Jade's double!)
Overall a 6/10
