That being said the film is still very fun, and the writers keeps the twists coming that we've come to enjoy in the previous films. Eddie Redmayne and Dan Fogler were superb in this film, with Fogler honestly stealing the show this time around.
Unfortunately other actors did let the film down.
Firstly, the main culprit: Jude Law. Sadly in this film he can't seem to maintain control of his accent. All throughout the film, Law speaks with his normal English accent, but for some unknown reason the actor seems to add a strong Irish twang to random words. These take the viewer completely off guard and do distract.
Secondly, Mads Mikkelsen. But I would like to point out that this is not his fault. Due to him replacing Johnny Depp, the two different Grindelwald's seem very different in terms of personality and style. These differences are enough to make Mads' portrayal of Grindelwald quite jarring.
Overall though, overlooking the unusual accents and casting issues, the film is excellent, and continues the story perfectly!
Enjoy! :)
