It was okay, but the bit at the end where they lobotomize the fat guy was stupid as gently caress. Especially because earlier in the film it is explicitly states that they can move to Engerland and gently caress like rabbits if they want. So don't see the movie if you actually pay attention to plot.
Why didn't they just smuggle him out like they smuggle everything in the entire movie constantly :confused:

Also why doesn't everyone just live in a suitcase

And who would come out of their suitcase without having some wizard-peephole

So many whys and yet I still had a good time. Maybe because I got to see the normals get hosed with a lot for once which they carefully avoided before due to all the complications.

It's a pretty fun movie, but without the school aspect all the wizards are basically Marvel superheros and it kind of makes the magic tiresome.
I was actually getting tired of wizard stories where nobody does any wizard things until maybe the end. Really, half the time in Harry Potter they're just mixing poo poo or reading books or stumbling about in the forest like idiots. And with the setting being back in time being less subtle about it makes a certain amount of sense, because they hadn't yet gotten great at the capture and punishment of dumbasses who do something flashy.

Though really I think I'm just a sucker for a dimensional suitcase

Yeah the suitcase stuff was neat, so was the magic speakeasy. I like the fantasy elements, it's just that the big dumb action scenes at the end really bring down the experience.
Ah yeah, that was kind of a lot of padding with not a lot actually going on.
