Customer Ratings & Reviews

For what is mostly the first entry in a brand new series Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is also very much a re-boot to the Harry Potter universe that Warner Bros. has surprisingly let remain stagnant for a solid five years. As someone who grew up with the books, who matured as they matured, and grasped the implications of the ideas and themes more as the series went on and explored more complex ideas and themes itself I have to admit to not being too thrilled by the fact Warner Bros. planned on extending the world of Harry Potter to New York City and the 1920's with a film about the guy who...wrote one of Harry and his friends textbooks? Despite the fact J.K. Rowling herself would be penning the screenplay there was still a fair amount of trepidation that whatever this Eddie Redmayne-fronted extension of the magical world might ultimately be it would inevitably be little more than a cash grab. A boardroom mandated blockbuster that would repeat as many of the same beats from the Harry Potter franchise as it could while doubling the amount of merchandise and thus the revenue. And so, here we are-the full swing of the Holiday season in November is in full force and amidst the crowded multiplexes sporting a number of high-profile releases and awards season hopefuls we again find the comfort and ease of knowing that while not exactly Harry, we are once again able to escape to the magical world Rowling has conjured up and that, no matter the protagonist, is something of an unavoidable happiness members of a certain generation can't pass up. For the truth is, after allowing my hesitations to subside and instead becoming excited by the fact Rowling and director David Yates (who made the final four Harry Potter films) reunited for a brand new chapter in the development of the wizarding world and that this chapter of the bigger picture would ultimately add more depth and scope to this world we already believed we knew turns out to be a solidly entertaining thrill ride. Though Fantastic Beasts certainly has its issues and two too many endings it casts a charming enough spell to leave audiences wanting more from the adventures of Mr. Newt Scamander and his inevitable battle with Gellert Grindelwald.

I love Harry Potter and these new Fantastic Beasts movies give new live unto the magic of the HP Universe. Super thrilled to add this dvd to my ever growing collection!

I love this flick because I’m a Harry Potter nerd. I really dig that it was catered to older ppl because if you grew up watching Harry Potter than your a grown up now.

A fantastic extension of the Wizardry world. The quality of the movie is excellent and my daughter loves it. If you love or even like Harry Potter then you will love this.

This movie was amazing already. Huge have of the Harry Potter movies and this was exciting. Watching it in 4K was a treat.

One of the best stories yet. Eddie Redmayne is fantastic as the wizard who cataloged the creatures and his adventures are both beautiful and interesting.

I love this. As a part of the Potter-verse, it's nice to venture back into this world. I'm in for as many of these adventures they want to give us! 9/10.

I highly recommend this movie. It was excellent. I choose the bluray with the digital so that I can download it to my vudu. I can now watch it whenever I watch.

4K uhd is worth it if you have the correct setup in my opinion. However the price of the discs should be a little cheaper I feel. I got FB for 20$ I would have probably waited for it to go on a better sale, but the movie was still quite enjoyable.

Fantastic for the Harry Potter Fan, but if not still great. You have a bevy of talented actors British and American. Which includes Johnny Depp. Highly recommend

Every story has a beginning and sometimes when a story is so popular and profitable, they make a beginning to the beginning. In this case, it is a good move!!!

I love the Harry Potter franchise and to get this on 4k to add to my Harry Potter collection on 4k is even better! Can’t wait until the new one is on 4k as well.

The beginning of the story for Newt Scamander. The first movie in a line. JK Rowling does it again, with a wonderful tale and intriguing characters.

These movies are so well written. They stay pretty true to the books. Johnny Depp is great as a pivotal character that doesn't get a lot if screen time.

Better than the follow up, the story is engaging, the animals entertaining, and you find that you really care what happens to the characters.

Love all the Harry Potter movies. Saw this movie via blue ray, it was awesome. Got a 4K player and puts blue ray to shame. Movie is super entertaining.

This movie is a pleasure to watch in the 4K UHD, the inclusion of the digital copy and blue ray make it a great deal as you can enjoy it on any device.

Love the Harry Potter books snd movies so much and this movie has the same classic wonder and feel of the original. A must watch for any Harry Potter fans

I love fantastic beasts and seen it at the show but it doesn't compared to how great it looks on my Sony 4K high-definition TV with a blackout screen.

I had wished I had seen this at the theatre this would had been a great one to see on the big screen. I love the characters and the magic.
