There may be special effects aplenty here, but precious little magic.

By the tepid ending, the movie appears to have been sedated.

Despite the intriguing set-up, formula proves as hard a habit for Ephron to kick as magic is for Isabel.

What the hell is Will Ferrell doing to his career?

Full Review | May 12, 2006

If it lost every bad idea, miscast actor, wasted performance, and botched scene, nothing would be left but the end credits.

| Sep 26, 2005

A disappointing treatment of fabulous source material.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 19, 2005

You will leave the cinema utterly disenchanted.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Aug 9, 2005

The rabbit that's pulled out of the hat is lifeless.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jul 7, 2005

Ferrell, in need of a shorter leash, never makes the character any more than a caricature, and Kidman, in a rare comedic role, suffers, too.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jul 5, 2005

What this revival needs is a good kick in the pants. And that Ephron and friends lack the low cunning to deliver.

The Ephron sisters, sophisticates entrusted with a simple 온라인카지노추천 situation comedy, lose the magic of the com as they mess with the sit.

| Original Score: C | Jun 29, 2005

In the original 온라인카지노추천 series, Elizabeth Montgomery had this kind of sexy, subversive personality. Here we just have this naïve person who just flits about.

| Original Score: D+ | Jun 25, 2005

The movie is predictably pedestrian; a shallow and spineless comedy with all the charm of leftover goat cheese left to fester unwrapped on the bakery counter.

| Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 25, 2005

The artificiality of Bewitched is so exaggerated that it almost works in the movie's favor for the first 20 minutes or so, before that heavy synthetic Ephron odor really sets in.

Full Review | Jun 24, 2005

A phony and cynical look at how Hollywood might make or remake a television show.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 24, 2005

Screenwriters Ephron and her sister Delia are able to get laughs and make character points even in the moments of laying out a fairly involved exposition, and that's no small thing. That's skilled craftsmanship.

| Original Score: 3.5/4 | Jun 24, 2005

Ephron seems unsure as to whether she's filming a zany retro comedy or a conventional romance, and the film zips back and forth between genres, never really settling.

Full Review | Original Score: 2/4 | Jun 24, 2005

After Kidman and Ferrell have hit all the expected marks (meet cute, encounter obstacles, fall in love, encounter fatal setback, fall back in love), the movie winds up being hoist on its own petard, becoming the butt of one of its own inside jokes.

| Jun 24, 2005

For one thing, it looks every bit as drab as the average 1966 sitcom did: overlit, flat, studiobound and phony. For another, it's just as unfunny as the original.

| Original Score: 1.5/4 | Jun 24, 2005
