It looks like I am in the minority here but I didn ' t like it as much as I had hoped . I am a big fan of the Harry Potter movies so I had to curb my expectations because I didn ' t want to overhype it and then feel let down because it couldn ' t live up to unrealistic expectations but even going in with an open mind I still felt let down . There were roughly ~ 30 people in the theater with me and no less than three of them were snoring for a good portion of the movie . I can understand slow parts for character development but the beasts themselves had more personality than a lot of the main cast . I would have been more entertained with him exploring the different areas inside his suitcase than the actual movie we were presented with .
