When the familiar "Variations on a Theme of Hedwig" sounded, every cell in the body was excited and blood surged. This is the magic world I am familiar with! From 2011 to 2016, even if only on the big screen, I have to say it's nice to be back in this world.
Fantastic Beasts are probably to fans of Haha what The Hobbit is to fans of The Lord of the Rings. They are not the same story, and there are not many familiar characters, but the only thing that can easily arouse the deep resonance and emotion in my heart is that they belong to the same world, the complete world and The system, the holy land of dreams in the hearts of every fan. When Newt put the chest in "Muggle mode", when he first took out his wand, when he first used Apparate, when he pronounced the familiar "Alohomora" "Petrificus Totalus" "Legilimens" "Reparo" Waiting for the spell, when the house-elves appeared... Countless emotions rose up in my heart, as if time and space were reversed, we just went back seventy years ago, from London to New York.
Although the film is a brand new story, it is inextricably linked to the era of Harry Potter and cannot be avoided. Newt's Hufflepuff scarf, Dumbledore mentioned when the Security Minister questioned him, the familiar Deathly Hallows necklace, and the final boss, Grindelwald. Everything seems to have not changed.
The biggest highlight of this film should be the No-Ma Ji Jacob who strayed into the magical world. He seems to be a gift from the screenwriter Aunt Luo to each of our fans. As an ordinary person, he was fortunate enough to experience an adventure, travel the magical world with wizards, and fulfill the dreams of each of us. "I want to be a wizard!" "I don't want to wake up!" he shouted in the film is not the voice of every fan. In the end, he returned to his original life, and everything was like a dream, and those of us who were attentive spectators also got wet eyes.
There is a heavy rain at the end of the film. In the rain, the wizards took out their wands one by one to restore the ruins after the war and rebuild the whole city. It also reminds people of the last cruel and tragic Hogwarts defense. I have to say that this rain is really beautiful. Everyone was cast in the rain and forgotten. When Jacob slowly was wiped out by the heavy rain, he found himself standing there in a daze, at a loss. In fact, it's like a dream if it's true or false. I prefer to believe that the magical world really exists, but we just got caught in the rain and forgot it.
And I think the most exciting point of the whole film is Newt's repeated emphasis on "Hogwarts is the best school of magic", which was poked instantly! In addition, there is another interesting point in the same clip. Newt's ex-girlfriend Leta smiled like a dragon mother in the photo. At that moment, I thought Clark was coming to make a cameo!
The special effects of the whole film are amazing, and the BGM is also breathtaking. It is highly recommended to go to the cinema to watch! With laughter and tears, you can see at a glance.
