Very disappointed pottermore. I was expecting an interesting read but it was just someone talking about his job for 5 hours with a £25 price tag on it.

documentary of filming. not the book.
I was disappointed to find that I had not purchased the book. but instead the filming documentary. I'm sure if I made it to the end of the documentary it would be good but i don't have the patience for this. I most definitely returned my purchase

This is NOT the book/story!
Can’t tell you how disappointed I am. I genuinely thought I was pre-ordering the book. Nope, this is a “behind the scenes” commentary, which I’ve already seen on Sky.
So disappointed.

Behind the magic!
I love listening and watching to behind the scenes of movies, especially the HP and FB franchise & this did not disappoint, especially after just watching the new film just last night!! And to the people complaining that it’s not the story? Should have read the description first and you would have known before purchasing that is was a behind the scenes audible not the actual screenplay 🙄.

Wonderful documentary for any Wizarding fan
I've read the reviews from other people who have bought the audio book and am very very surprised that they've slated it. How much clearer could the title be - it clearly states this is behind the scenes documentary and an insight into how a global phenomena film is put together. Those disappointed really should have paid more attention to the title and description. If it was the screen play, that would have been stated.
Anyway onto my review of the documentary. Wow, what an absolute joy, hearing from various different departments and how the departments work painstakingly together to create the utterly spell binding world our beloved author has created.
I didn't even know alot of those departments existed, let alone what they do - the vehicle department!!!!!! For an out and out Wizarding world/Harry Potter/Fantastic Beasts fan, this was utter joy.
Dan Fogler was superb and cheeky and funny.
It was wonderful that unknown people who work within the industry got a small voice and you heard from everyday people who are involved, construction workers, plasterers, transport assistants, etc etc etc. Its extraordinary to realise that some of these talented people have been involved in this franchise for over 20 years and thats the span of their career todate. Its been going for 20yrs and this is the only job they've done. Love it.
Thank you Pottermore for an exciting insight and offering an alternative way to learn more behind the scene details.
Would strongly recommend to any fan who wants to know more.

ENCHANTING!
I thoroughly enjoyed this from start to finish and I hoped it would last longer! What an amazing insight into this film (I haven’t actually seen it but now I’m going to) It was just enchanting and I loved the documentary elements.
