After Grindelwald’s growing influence sparks chaos across magical societies, Dumbledore uncovers a terrifying truth:
A long-dormant magical force known as The First Wizard, believed to be the origin of all wand magic, has begun to reawaken.

Newt Scamander is called upon once more—this time not only as a magizoologist, but as the only wizard whose bond with magical creatures can unlock secrets tied to this primordial figure.

Their journey leads them across:

• the Forbidden Ruins in Tibet

• the Lost Menagerie of Babylon

• and the Veil of Arah-Shai, a dimension where magic behaves unpredictably

Meanwhile, Credence, weakened but alive, faces the chilling possibility that his Obscurus may be tied to the First Wizard’s awakening.

🦄 Highlights

• Newt shines more than ever, balancing awkward charm with surprising heroism.

• Jude Law’s Dumbledore is layered and tragic, wrestling with past mistakes.

• Grindelwald takes on a more mystical, prophetic role—dangerous yet magnetic.

• The new creatures steal the show:

  • Aether Seraphs (winged light animals)

  • Chronospawn (time-warping beasts)

  • The Basiran (a massive telepathic cat-like guardian)

• The lore expansion is incredible—ancient spells, pre-wand magic, and the origin of wizardkind.

🎨 Visuals

The environments feel mythic and otherworldly. Magical battles are more symbolic and reality-bending than in past films—a blend of illusion, light, and elemental forces.

📌 Verdict

A rich, ambitious, lore-heavy sequel that finally gives Fantastic Beasts the scale of the classic Wizarding World. Not perfect, but deeply engaging and breathtakingly imaginative.

⭐ 8.6/10 — “Magic returns to its ancient roots.”
