 Lover of fairy tales March 9, 2007

From an adult perspective, you have to be a lover of fairy tales to appreciate this movie. It is worth it just to watch Angelica Huston's performance. Humorous in parts; scary (for children) in parts. Great ending. May be a little scary for under-10-year-olds.

I hadn't seen this movie since I was a kid. It brought back many memories. I enjoyed watching over again. Wonderful selection.

This should be a classic if it hasnt been deemed so already. Special effects are wonderful and the story line is different. I really should get this on DVD but there is something about my copy on VHS that makes me feel like a kid again.

This is a great movie and it is one of my daughters favorite. I know once we get the movie it will be fine. For now. I ordered this product in July and it is not to arrive until sometime in Sept. any where from the 1st to the 28th of Sept.

That woman with the purple eyes
and ugly square-toed shoes
The one who's scratching at her scalp
is certainly bad news!
Does she look faint when kids draw near
or hold her nose and run?
If women like this roam the world
God bless us, everyone
Convention time at the hotel
we goggle at the sight
of Grand High Witch Angelica
whose wig is on too tight
Her followers cheer gleefully
as she takes off her mask
revealing all her ghastly warts
and gives them one big task
"Quit your jobs," the Chief Witch says
"and open candy shops,
free chocolate should do the trick
we'll pull out all the stops"
The witches have an evil plan
to rid the world of brats
those stinky, smelly rotten kids
will now be meals for cats
But all bad deeds must have a hitch
their plan's been overheard
a clever boy is eavesdropping
and has heard every word
Soon he's crawling through the kitchens
and dropping in the cress
too many cooks DO spoil the broth
and make an awful mess
The ending differs from the book
it's really very sappy
I'm sure Dahl's rolling in his grave
because they made it happy
Rated: 3.5 stars

PS - The sound quality on this DVD is not up to standard, and you'll need to watch it with remote in hand to make volume adjustments. There are no sub-titles or closed-captioning, and the packaging is of the cheaper variety.
