Editorial Review:
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

Rating:  - Marvelous!
I loved this movie, can't believe I havent seen it before. Wonderful cast and acting. If you like a little real majick you will definitely enjoy this movie.

Rating:  - Mildly Entertaining But No Witches of Eastwick
This film lacks the acting chops and the wicked appeal of
The Witches of Eastwick. I adore Sandra Bullock and Diane
Weist and Stockard Channing are always favorites, but
Nicole Kidman's fake looking wig, gangly white legs, and
artificial sounding American accent ruined it for me. It could
have been a great film if they had chosen someone more
appropriate for Bullock's sister in the movie. Too bad Kate
Hudson or Anne Hathaway weren't available at the time. ... Read More

Rating: - A Pleasing Bit of Movie Magic
When I find a movie that both I and my husband like it is a rare find indeed. That's what happened with Practical Magic. Having read the book and enjoyed it immensely it was a natural for me to want the movie.
Although the movie version deviates from the book and the viewer loses much of the backstory, it is lovingly adapted and given wonderful treatment. The scenes of the young sisters living in the aunts house especially were full of detail. Costuming was wonderful (in the case of the ... Read More
