Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Movies based on fantasy novels are always a blast, aren't they? They let us see amazing stories come to life. "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them," directed by David Yates, is one such movie. It's based on a book by the famous J.K. Rowling.

The movie stars Eddie Redmayne as Newt Scamander, a British wizard who arrives in New York in 1926. But Newt's visit gets a bit messy when he accidentally lets his magical creatures loose in the city. Now, he has to find and capture them all.

Newt isn't alone in this. He gets help from Tina Goldstein (Katherine Waterston), a former worker at the Ministry of Magic, a regular guy named Jacob (Dan Fogler), and Queenie (Alison Sudol).

While they're searching for the creatures, one of them gets blamed for a crime by the mean wizard Grindelwald (Johnny Depp). Newt and his new friends in New York have to work together to clear his name and stop Grindelwald from causing more trouble.
