(2005)
Starring Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell
Quick Rating:
**
Typical Hollywood mediocrity. Some laughs, but a ho-hum script, with
tons of cliches and an obvious ending and nothing new or interesting.
In the movie, they're remaking the TV show "Bewitched" starring Jack Wyatt
(Ferrell), an egotistical actor who has fallen from grace, and really needs
this to be a success. All they need is a perfect Samantha, which they
find in the non-actor Isabel (Kidman), who actually is a witch. Love
story and witch jokes ensue. The supporting characters are one-sided
and useless. The soundtrack made me laugh, as you hear every song that
ever even mentions witches or witchcraft.
The movie will hold your attention, but not your imagination nor admiration.
