Actor Griffin Dunne improves a bit on his first film as a director, Addicted to Love, with this drama-comedy about a family of witches. Nicole Kidman and Sandra Bullock play spell-casting sisters of different temperaments: the former is a high-living, free-spirited sort, while Bullock's character is a homebody who can't get around a family curse that kills the men in their lives. A widowed single mom, Bullock gets into a jam with an abusive Bulgarian (Goran Visnjic) and is helped out by her sibling, but the result brings a good-looking, warm, inquisitive cop (Aidan Quinn) into their lives. The film has a variety of tonal changes--cute, scary, glum--that Dunne can't always effectively juggle. But the female-centric, celebratory nature of the film (the fantasies, the sharing, the witchy bonds) is infectious, and supporting roles by Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing as Kidman and Bullock's magical aunts are a lot of fun. --Tom Keogh

4 out of 5 stars A different sort of romantic chick flick   December 8, 2008
Val (RI)
Practical Magic is a chick flick with a dash of romance and a great helping of subtle fantasy elements all in one. It features great acting by Sandra Bullock, Nicole Kidman (who looks sooo much better with red hair) and Stockard Channing. It feels very different from your typical chick flick romance. It has a bit of a dramatic air to it and some mystery and the overall atmosphere is such that it pulls you in and makes you want to watch it til the very end.

It's very entertaining and underrated most of the time. I love Aidan Quinn in anything and this is no exception. Those eyes of his are so engrossing that you can't help but be sucked in. The witchcraft element is not cheesy or pointless- it is actually done very well and makes the film that more interesting. I really think Practical Magic will appeal to a great many people, and it really makes for a nice date flick too!



5 out of 5 stars The Perfect Fairy Tale   October 24, 2008
S. OToole (Everett, WA)
For those girls/women out there who like a good love story with all the toppings (sorrow, happiness, suspense, family bonding and of course magical romance), this movie is for you! Great acting, well scripted lines and wonderful story that keeps you wanting more. The soundtrack is super too (I own it as well as the movie). The movie is quite magical, one that you can watch with your family over and over again...
