 Campy, but cute, children's story July 3, 2004
0 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is definately for kids, perhaps 8 to 12 years old, where they can separate out fantasy from reality. The slow starting pace and the campy effects might bore adult viewers, but it's a great flick for kids. The cameo appearance of Rowan Atkinson adds a couple of laughs, but filmmaker really underutilized the comedian's talents.

One of the best Fairy tales I've seen February 18, 2004

Loved the story, loved the actors. I bought this movie before DVDs were born, and when the DVD came out I bought it too. I keep watching out for a remastered version (like a lot of remade action movies) with DTS or Dolby Digital audio 5.1 but still no luck. Anjelica Huston is one of those rare American actors/actresses who can hold their own amid an all-English cast.
Best witch film ever !! December 28, 2003

I think this is the best witch film ever !! The witches look preety scary, and it's not a really suitable for young kids, they will think that there're really witches in the world. anyway, it was a good film.
Delightful Kids Flick November 1, 2003

I discovered thsi movie at the age of eight and became obsessed with it renting it several times then buying it for myself a few years later. Kids flicks don't get any better than this.This movie is based on the book by Rolald Dahl which is about a boy who comes across a flock of witches while vacationing with his grandma on the English seashore. The witches *led by Angelica Huston* are meeting under the disguise of a "children's charity organization* but really are discussing plans to get rid of all of the children in England by turning them into mice! Unfortunately, the boy whose name is Luke becomes one of their first victims. The story is great fun as are the actors. The end is the best part which takes place at a fancy dinner for the witches, but I won't give it away. Fantastic movie for the young and the young at heart.
