This series officially goes downhill.
I despise The Crimes of Grindelwald and good thing I just won this on a giveaway or else I wasted my money. I watched the movie as well and it's boring. Yeah there's a lot of magic but the plot is weak and messy. There are parts that I wasn't sure and this script novel helps.
Here are more reasons why I hate this sequel: :
Messy Plot
- Primarily, we get an in depth insight of Grindelwald's agenda. It's more political than magical action and as a villain, Gellert Grindelwald is weaker than I thought. All he does is talk and witches and wizards are plain stupid and gullible. He's just so unconvincing. Between Grindelwald and Voldemort -- Voldemort is more powerful and villainous. Actually, Credence stood out more as an anti-hero than he does.
Wasted Potential Characters
- This is what drives me mad the MOST. We have Nagini, who just appeared as EXTRA and there's really back story here about her being a Maledictus. Then there's Leta Lestrange, whom I am so curious about her and she just got WASTED. She appeared strong and clever. There's so much potential in her that could help Newt Scamander and Albus Dumbledore bring Grindelwald his downfall and she didn't deserve the fate she got in the end. Her secret seems like a foul play / racist to me. That's a strike two for ruining POC characters ok? I'm just not ok with this. Lastly, Queenie Goldstein. That was a DIRTY PLAY. I am so MAD I want to haul the book across the room and scream! NAH.
There'll be a last film / screenplay and I honestly don't care what's gonna happen next. This series needs to be over.
