The Harry Potter deprivation has come to an end and we can all experience a taste of our childhood once again.

Recently over the weekend, J.K Rowling’s new story “Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them” has been released in theaters. Coming from a huge Harry Potter fan, you can bet I made my way over to the movie theater as soon as I could.

Without giving much away, the movie takes place in the 1920's in New York City. Young Wizard, Newt Scamander, goes on a journey with a mission to educate about the many creatures he carries around in his suitcase. On his journey, he encounters a series of characters including a muggle named Jacob and a worker for the Ministry of Magic named Tina. All the creatures go loose from Newt’s case and the movie is primarily about finding all the creatures. It’s a fun in that way that the movie introduces all these fun creatures like you would see in any Harry Potter film. Similar to Harry Potter, this movie involves a story of dark magic and has a few plot twists towards the end.

And the magic doesn’t end there. The book takes place in 1926 and ends in 1945. JK Rowling clarified that the first film didn’t cover the entire book and it was too long to fit into one film. She states that it spans for decades and revolve around world-shaping events. Therefore, you can expect a second film and possibly more.

I would highly recommend to see this movie especially if you are a Potterhead. I have looked forward to the release of Harry Potter films throughout my childhood and it was more than great to feel the magic again. One thing I truly admired about the film was it had only a few relations to the Harry Potter film and for the most part stood on its own. It was a different take and different setting creating a different feel for the audience. In addition to great acting and great special effects, I think they ended up tying it together well.
