Fantastic Beasts & Where To Find Them was well received by audiences and critics alike, with Pop Geeks’ Todd Black writing about the film:
“We’re introduced to several characters that add layers to the story, but they don’t all work. While Tina, a former Auror who’s desperate to be noticed again, works great with Newt and Jacob personality wise, when we meet Graves, another Auror, or the Second Salem Society, it get really dark, and needlessly so. It’s not surprising that the tone is there because of the later Harry Potter films, all of which were directed by David Yates. However, it’s important to remember, that Sorcerer’s Stone, and even Chamber of Secrets, weren’t very dark at numerous points. Only towards the end did it get dark, and that’s important to note. Because there was a buildup to the darkness, whereas here, it’s thrust upon us in the hopes we’ll get it.”
