Not evil - just wounded and desperate to be seen

Gellert Grindelwald doesn't feel like a typical villain. He's not evil for the sake of it - he's wounded, perhaps humiliated by a past that denied him recognition. His actions come from a deep urge to prove his worth, to show the world he's powerful. It's less about destruction, more about validation. That's what makes him such a compelling character: he's not just dark - he's human, broken, and dangerously brilliant. Unlike Voldemort, Grindelwald believes he's doing the right thing - and that's what makes him even more unsettling.

In case

You are not a die hard Potter fan and are satisfied by links to the main story, save your time. CGI isn't too bad but nothing fancy. Characters are flat and not interesting.
