Synopsis
This spin-off of the Harry Potter franchise jumps back in time to explore the wizarding world of 1926 New York, which is being threatened by both mystical acts of destruction and a group of extremist No-Majs (the American term for Muggles, i.e. those unable to use magic). Author Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne) arrives in the city as part of a global study of fantastic beasts, but he gets caught up in this conflict when some of the magical creatures in his care are accidentally released. Katherine Waterston, Alison Sudol, Dan Fogler, Colin Farrell, Ezra Miller, and Johnny Depp co-star in this fantasy adventure, which was directed by David Yates (who helmed four of the Harry Potter films) and adapted for the screen by J.K. Rowling from her own book. ~ Jack Rodgers, Rovi

3D must buy.
Fantastic 3D and where to find it!
March 31, 2017Fantastic Beasts makes good use of 3D even though it wasn't shot with 3D in mind. Some of the best effects were when Newt's new friend Jacob are in the girls only apartment and the dinner table is being set by magic. Plates and food that Queenie manipulates seem to whiz effortlessly past, and the beasts are no visual slouches either. The Obscurus pulses and roars both visually and audibly, giving the 3D and your receiver ample ammunition to enjoy. In closing, the soundtrack is exacting in intensity and dialogue is crisp and clear. Love 3D still, and you can't do much better than this for yourself and to show your friends what they're missing in the 3D theater experience.

Fantastic movie!
May 12, 2017The Harry Potter movies were fun and just OK. Fantastic Beasts blows the HP series away. I hear there will be more Fantastic Beasts movies and can't wait.

Initial problem by Warner Bros. packing wrong disc
April 7, 2017Warner Bros. mispackaged ! They left out the 3-D disc and subbed a regular DVD copy. Best Buy became aware of it shortly after I purchased, but quickly replaced the unit for me (not BB's fault in any way). I now have the intended 3-D Blu-ray + Blu-ray. Very nice audio/video copy. I love the 1920's scenery (cars, buildings look very accurate). Good 3-D !

Looks like we're having trouble displaying reviews for this feature
Wonderful 3D presentation. If you enjoyed the H. P. series you will love this one too! Much better 3D than the last two H.P. movies and although Warners didn't include the Atmos soundtrack on the 3D, the DTS 5.1 HD MA soundtrack captures all the action admirably. What the heck is the story with that Warners?
