Fantasy. Drama. Romance. Comedy
Two sisters who are both witches lead very different lives -- one has given up on finding true love and moved in with her psychic aunts; the other has romance on her mind and uses her power to lure a handsome cop into the family coven. Problem is, both sisters live under a curse whereby any man who falls in love with them is looking at an early death.

"Too scary for children and too childish for adults (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 4)" | ||||
"Practical Magic is a chick movie with a multiple personality disorder (...) this is fanciful, fun, romantic escapism - a strange but bubbly brew (...) Rating: ★★ (out of 5)" | ||||
"Though the tale is not without its charms, its spell is repeatedly broken by the random pace and tone." | ||||
"[Practical Magic] can't decide whether it's a horror show, a cute comedy, or a soap opera." | ||||
"This is a film with neither heart nor mind (...) It substitutes set pieces for drama and music for dialogue." | ||||
"Practical Magic is neither good nor great, but it is pleasant. That's about the best and the worst that can be said for it." | ||||
"A disappointing brew of slick commercial moviemaking and old-fashioned romantic fantasy" | ||||
"Part comedy, part family drama, part romance, part special-effects mystery-adventure, and not entirely satisfying on any of these levels." |
