Crimes of
Rowling’s Genius.
Another genius ‘genie in the box’
production by Harry Potter but not:
This latest film by many talented ‘Potters’, sheds light on a
great adventure.
The lamp is lit as we begin the treasure hunt for the blood
vial in a cave but not Aladdin’s in this case.
There are many treasures sought
by all…
Pure bloods versus muggles or pure bloods versus the good
side, in fantastic beasts’ action scenes, all for the glory of power..
The winners and the story line are not as prominent as the
amazing special effects.
We are left hanging for more movies to come, at the end of
this epic 3D adventure, and in this hunt for ‘The’ vial and for the bad guys’
demise.
The main attractions are the
beasts of fire and water and of wind factors of action motion, as they ‘slay’
and ‘wing’ across the scenes and screens. They ‘sing’ and ‘swing’ through
musical scores, fighting battles within awesome settings of explosive colours.
The beasts are the main attractions for sure dear viewers.
From small magical creatures to big ‘Animagus’ features, we
are mesmerised by the action we see on screen and by the glory of the ‘reds’, ‘blues’
and electric colour highs.
The ‘setting rooms’ are a ‘mish
mash’ of authentic spell binding ‘Merlin’ style props. They provide us with a
great contrast to the external ‘elementals’.
From fire, to water, to wind and then to earth, all of our
senses are taken in by the external ‘props’ and by the internal settings as
well.
The ephemeral i.e. quick hazy sometimes scenes, take us from
subtle prop to prop, as well as from room to room and from action to action.
Script kind of a little included -but not too much so…
Props galore in very fast -too fast- sliding door scenes and
within shots of moving glory.
‘Pandora’s box’ is full of clues
and insignias -leading to more clues and then to the discovery of the
enchanting ‘more of the story’.
The origin of the pure bloods is a key point to the factions
and to their taking of sides in the plot.
Who will join whom, and who will beat whom, in the final scene
of this Star Wars style ‘thou shalt not pass’ wands out and baskets in…production.
The ‘book of spells’ is not foremost
in this movie; and not as obvious as the writings on the ‘walls’ or the portals
and symbols and vial-(s), etc…The latter are much more prominent than the
spells or the magical words out loud.
That’s all for
today and tonight dear readers of Lord of the Rings style epic fights.
‘My
precious, my precious’ book or ring of spells and portals -wherefore art thou?
The hunt is on…for the props and the clues -be they books
and rings or not as the cases of many fascinating portals may be.
