#SundayReviews: "Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald"


Everyone wants their own cinematic universe, so the Wizarding World continues its expansion with Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald.

I wasn't impressed by the first attempt, so let's see how this second film fares.

From Google:

"In an effort to thwart Grindelwald's (Johnny Depp) plans of raising pure-blood wizards to rule over all non-magical beings, Albus Dumbledore (Jude Law) enlists his former student Newt Scamander (Eddie Redmayne), who agrees to help, unaware of the dangers that lie ahead. Lines are drawn as love and loyalty are tested, even among the truest friends and family, in an increasingly divided wizarding world."




This movie seems all over the place, in telling -- or rather, trying to tell -- several stories at once.

It also must not have been very interesting because I slept thru a bunch of it and woke up for the finale -- which was as disappointing as the first one to me.

WATCH THIS ON STREAMING to keep up with the magical hi-jinks and to see the cool special effects.

QBF Rating: 2.0/5

PS: I finally made it through the missing bits after several failed attempts!

NSFW Monday!

Good Morning! This is the 21st, and last of my "Body-Painted Football Babes Bonanza" series. Perhaps more importantly however, the semi-finals begin tomorrow in the World Cup! So a hearty congratulations to the great teams who made it: Uruguay versus Netherlands Germany versus Spain They will play each other tomorrow and Wednesday respectively, but all signs point to Germany defeating the Netherlands in the final. Now, back to the babes! We have ladies representing the Italian Republic (the only returning champion I'd wager, to ever come dead last in the weakest group), and the Republic of Korea (South Korea -- who lost to Uruguay in the 2nd round). - QBF Spicy Meatball: Korea's Taekwan-Don't Stop!
