I found Secrets of Dumbledore to be better than the second movie for sure but i didn't enjoy it as much as the first one, which wasn't a masterpiece to begin with. There are more throwbacks here to the Harry Potter movies especially in regards to the music though which is nice. The CGI work and special effects were generally better than the previous movies as well. Unfortunately I still found the characters uninteresting aside from Grindelwald, with Mikkelsen doing an amazing job portraying him and making me wish he could have been there from the start. Some storylines between characters felt super rushed or just thrown together randomly at the last minute with one in particular being extremely disappointing with how it turned out. Overall i never thought this side saga was anything special from the start, it's a serviceable addition to the original movies but suffers incoherent characterization and bland storytelling
