在这部神奇动物在哪里剧情/奇幻/冒险片中,故事发生在1926年的纽约，彼时，麻鸡们对魔法师的抵制达到了最高峰，由玛丽露（萨曼莎·莫顿 Samantha Morton 饰）所领导的反魔法组织活动频繁。与此同时，街头巷尾之中时时发生的种种灾难意外让魔法世界的存在离暴露仅有一线之隔，整个魔法部陷入了空前紧张的气氛之中。 就在这个节骨眼上，环游世界进行着研究神奇魔法动物之行动的魔法动物学家纽特（埃迪·雷德梅恩 Eddie Redmayne 饰）抵达了纽约，他随身携带的魔法手提箱里，装着几十种他一路营救的魔法动物们，而他的一举一动，均处于隶属于魔法部的前傲罗蒂娜（凯瑟琳·沃特森 Katherine Waterston 饰）的监视之下。一场意外中，麻鸡雅各布（丹·福格勒 Dan Fogler 饰）误拿了纽特的手提箱，并且放出了藏在箱子里的魔法动物，为此，纽特、蒂娜、雅各布和蒂娜的妹妹奎妮（艾莉森·苏朵儿 Alison Sudol 饰）不得不踏上了寻找魔法动物的旅途。©豆瓣
Holding a mysterious leather suitcase in his hand, Newt Scamander, a young activist wizard from England, visits New York while he is on his way to Arizona. Inside his expanding suitcase hides a wide array of diverse, magical creatures that exist among us, ranging from tiny, twig-like ones, to majestic and humongous ones. It is the middle of the 20s and times are troubled since the already fragile equilibrium of secrecy between the unseen world of wizards and the ordinary or "No-Maj" people that the MACUSA Congress struggles to maintain, is at risk of being unsettled. In the meantime, the voices against wizardry keep growing with daily protests led by Mary Lou Barebone and fuelled by the increasing disasters ascribed to a dark wizard, Gellert Grindelwald. At the same time, by a twist of fate, Newt's precious suitcase will be switched with the identical one of an aspiring No-Maj baker, Jacob Kowalski, while demoted Auror, Tina Goldstein, arrests Newt for being an unregistered wizard. To make matters worse, with the suitcase in the wrong hands, several creatures manage to escape to unknown directions. Before long, this situation will catch Senior Auror Percival Graves' attention who will target both Tina and Newt amid panic caused by an invisible, devastating and utterly unpredictable menace that still wreaks havoc in New York's 5th Avenue. Is there a hidden agenda behind Graves' intentions and ultimately, what will happen to the remaining magical creatures still loose in the streets?
