    Those interested in the Potter world will most likely be interested in this type of purchase. The movie itself, for many, doesn't have the same energy or feel as the first in this series but on its own simply is 'okay.' In terms of the disc(s), there is a reasonable difference in video between the BD and UHD. Audio quality is highly dependent on your home system. If you have a fairly good surround system, the audio is excellent for both BD and UHD. The streaming version is a bit limited and the video (4k) seems more like a contrasty BD disc but very nice. I'll simply say I am glad I completed the set so far and it is welcome in my movie library. My guess is at some time in 2023, it should be discounted. 5 on the disc and 4 on the movie itself.

    People who say negative "hateful" things about this movie have not seen it. They are doing that because they are trying to ruin JK Rowling or are mad about Johnny Depp being replaced. News flash, he was only in 1 minute of the first movie. Madds Mikkelson is brilliant in the evolution of the pure evil character "Grindewald". Each movie has built on the last one making this the best of the Fantastic Beasts movies so far. The acting is superb as the characters feel more and more like family as they did as they developed in the Harry Potter series (I'm not saying this is as good as Harry Potter, it stands on its own merits) I've watched it several times as the different stories of each character intertwine with the stories of the other characters. Love is shown in many different forms and includes redemption and loss. I like movies in the Ultra HD format and this one excels.

    A Good Entry into the Fantastic Beasts Series

    I think this was a good entry into the Fantastic Beasts series. Unfortunately, I think everything surrounding Johnny Depp hurt this movie. By that I mean I think Mads Mikkelsen did a very good job but it was tough not thinking of Johnny Depp in the role when watching it (especially since we saw this in the theaters when it was released). If Mads had been cast originally, and people were used to him in the role, I think the film would have been better received. I expect I will enjoy the movie more on subsequent viewings and I do hope they make the next 2 and complete the series.

    The Secrets of Dumbledore - 4K Review

    Even though this is a long movie, I found The Secrets of Dumbledore entertaining throughout, with Mikkelson delivering a good performance in this magical world. However, Depp really owned this role and his absence is felt. The movie is a little drab and lacking in sparkle with video that doesn’t exactly thrill, but at least the audio helps push the movie along. I would have to agree with the many that it is time to either abandon the series or re-boot it with the original cast….and a good script. This movie is really only for fans of the series.

    Worth the Money!

    I bought this movie a little while ago and the quality of the 4K is very good. I've watched it a few times and I also watched the movie at the theatre 2 times before buying this disk. Even though I liked this movie I still feel that the 1st movie in the series is the best. In my opinion Mads Mikkelsen makes a better and more believable Grindelwald than Johnny Depp. I liked this film better that the Crimes of Grindelwald, the 2nd movie in the series. Overall I think it's worth the money!

    Not Bad

    Not a bad movie, but it's getting away from the whole Fantastic Beasts aspect and has become more of a Dumbledore backstory. They should have had one set of movies for Newt and one set of movies for Dumbledore. Still not a bad film, but I hold Wizarding World movies to a higher standard than most other films. Worth s watch, but probably my least favorite so far.

    The Secrets of Dumbledore is the latest of the three movies of Fantastic Beasts. The first movie being the best, with this coming in a close second .This is an entertaining film. I enjoyed the Dolby Atmos mix, as it was very immersive. I definitely recommend it if you like the series.

    Came with slip cover in excellent condition, valid digital code, and scratch free disc securely fastened inside. As for the movie itself - it’s ok. Weakest of the three and probably the death of the Fantastic Beasts series. I enjoyed it for what it was as a fan of the Wizarding World though.

    Fun movie for those who really enjoy the Crimes of Grindelwald and Harry Potter series. The story of Dumbledore’s relationship with Grindelwald as well as Creedence’s angst about his family added depth to the story line. Otherwise it would have been a generic action movie. Glad to have it.

    The mysterious Dumbledore is revealed in this movie. I liked the cinematography and all the action that comes with the defensive wands and magic. This story shows us a side of Dumbledore that we didn't expect. Watch it with your fellow Harry Potter and Fantastic Breast fans. Enjoy

    This was a great movie! Good story line to continue unveiling the Harry Potter/Fantastical Beast journey in understanding the characters and what made them who they are. Wish Johnny Depp was in it as that was the only thing that was a little confusing.

    A good addition to the World of Wizarding movies. Mikkelson does a good job of filling Depp’s spot as Grindelwald.Jude law is a very good Dumbledore and Redmayne is great as Newt. Good story to fill out the history of the Wizarding world.

    It hurts the contiuity of a story when a main character is recast. It was understandanle in the Harry Potter series when they lost Richard Harris, but this was avoidable. Still, it was a fun movie.
