Practical Magic - 1/10.

JoBlo, you hit the nail on the head entirely! (cept you thought you'd be nice and give it one point extra, lol). This whole movie is pointless and *extremely* boring. It's like an episode of 'Sabrina, The Teenage Witch', only with all humor scraped out of it. I mean, even that crappy TV show has a funny cat! I now know how all their men were dying - they were all bored to death!! This movie with a running time of 1:45 I watched (or attempted to) twice. I fell asleep about 30 minutes into it. Then when I found my position and tried again, I watched more of the drivel, whiney bullshit continue and part of the dead man coming to life to kill them (unfortunately he didn't suceed), then I past off into sleepyworld again. This was one of the worst pieces of crap that ever landed in the theater, and if I was dumb enough to have purchased a ticket while it was playing, I would surely have turned the ticket lady into a toad for allowing me to buy one. http://www.joblo.com/ubb/smile.gif

I'm sorry but this MOVIE WAS THE BEST MOVIE we HAVE EVER SEEN! We sit there in like any subject in school and make up our own movies about it....this was one of the best movies ever made! We talk about it all the time. And we think the acting was awesome too.. Everyone of our friends like it. The plot was perfect..the romance was beautifully done it was like I was really there.... THIS IS THE BEST MOVIE EVER!

It had it moments; has some good examples of obsessions for
teenage girls; some deep truth on the theme of revenge rooted
in the emotional educations of feelings; and some truism on the
nature of falling prey to superstitions...fun for girls on ways to
extract from their lives boys who are negative by nature.

bit of a herbal geek myself.

whimsical piece.
