It'd have been nice to know the backstory of the main characters in the "past-future". We don't get to know anything about them ("leave the future in the past", I know) except for Trevor who tells the rest about his past lifetimes in later episodes.

Also, we get to know very little about the life in the future. Only that an asteroid killed half the human population and survivors had to live in a dome.

On the other hand, I didn't like the fact that most of the problems the crew had were solved by the director as if he was some kind of God... Most of the times they had to face a challenge from a strong character, the director simply killed the original host and replaced with some other traveller from the future.

Very boring, the acting was bad, none of the characters were memorable and the script was weak and flawed. They never talk about the moral and ethics issues about cloning a human being; The protagonist does it just because he can.

The sixth day is a much better movie regarding this subject.

It's your typical heist movie, involving south american drug dealer. Nothing special except for Redfly's dead, I didn't expect that.

This movie ilustrates perfectly the idiosincracy of argentine society; sadly people would get very mad for silly stuff like a traffic argument (Sbaraglia's story) or being mistreated by a picky and annoying customer (Cortese and Wexler's story). This was perfectly plasmed on screen by Szifron.

I didn't enjoy the very violent scenes, but understand that they had to be done this way.

On the other hand, I loved the bombita story, not only because of the great acting by Darin, but also for representing the absurdness of argentine's burocracy that would get you mad. And also, because he didn't kill anybody, he carefully planned the explotion only to cause material damage at the impound lot.

Where are the "crimes" of Grindelwald in the first place? The title is misleading. Rowling seemed to write the character in an ambiguos way: he's supposed to be bad like Voldemort, but in the movie we don't see him murder anybody. At the graveyard meeting he's just defendind himself from the aurors with the blue fire. Besides that, in his speach he vows to fight the muggle governments in order to prevent future world wars.

On the other hand, I enjoyed Jude law's performance as Dumbledore and the Howarts flashback scenes, since it helps the audience to understand the relationship between Scamander and Lestrange.
