Hocus Pocus 2 Reviews
It’s not of the same caliber as the original but a must see for any Hocus Pocus fan.
I think the movies does give a certain nod to its predecesor but still remaining an enjoyable film for these present generations. It really felt amazing to watch. It may not please everyone but what does?
Disney didn't disappointed me in disappointing me. A politically correct show, a disaster ending for a wonderful movie from the 90s. Don't watch it if you have enjoyed the first one.
pienso que es una película muy buena
This was another unneeded sequel. The first one was amazing and so iconic and I am low-key so confused why the other one has lower ratings. This one was a little cringe and felt like I was watching a Disney channel movie. Although it did have some laughs and I did think it was funny to introduce the witches to 2022, however even with that it still wasn't that great and I wouldn't recommend it.
I loved this movie a lot, you could tell the love and enjoyment poured into this, these movies are my comfort films! Thanks to the cast and creative team for creating something so special!
First one of course solid movie! This one without getting too critical, just had bad writing plain and simple the Sandersons were great, I’m only writing review in hopes that it makes a difference in the 3rd movie in production, (though not likely) the biggest thing that stood out to me was the original had a more organic story line; character interactions were so good, this second one honestly felt like an attempt to make every scene a meme; a gif; something to keep the audience from pulling up there phone and doom scroll. You had our attention with the 1st, we can handle slightly longer attention spanned story, this is the divide,.. kids like this movie it keeps sprinkling things that draws your attention. Here’s to hoping the 3rd will be fun and little more natural feeling! Will update if I ever watch this again…. Review is based off a watch from last year.
This soulless sequel has nothing going for it. The parts that are intended to be humorous just feel stale and unoriginal, unaided by tired and bad acting. The biggest spell that this mediocre flick successfully produced is removing all the magic of the original.
Having never seen the original Hocus Pocus, I watched both movies for the first time this Halloween with no nostalgic ties and to my surprise, I thoroughly enjoyed them! They’re funny, entertaining, and filled with a unique charm that truly makes them memorable. The Sanderson Sisters are absolutely iconic. Their distinct appearances, quirky personalities, and undeniable charisma make them the heart of the series. Without them, these movies simply wouldn’t be the same, and the sequel does an excellent job of showcasing just how essential they are to the story. [POSSIBLE SPOILER] The ending felt a bit abrupt, especially with the sudden shift in Winifred’s personality. She seemed completely different, her whole appearance suddenly changed. I fought this was very weird. [SPOILER END] Overall, Hocus Pocus 2 didn’t disappoint. It strikes a perfect balance between nostalgia and fresh, enjoyable content. One particular highlight for me was the song “One Way or Another,” which is actually how I first discovered the series. It brings back the charm and fun that fans of the original will appreciate, while adding a modern twist for new viewers like myself. It’s a fantastic Halloween watch that lives up to the legacy of the Sanderson Sisters, delivering plenty of laughs, magic, and memorable moments.
Absolutely awful. There are no other words. It just seemed they got all the actors/actresses together and said just do and say what you want. It was all over the place. The acting was awkward, it was so cringe. The only bit I enjoyed was the start when the sisters were little girls. The girl who played Winnie was great. Other than that I’ve never watched a film I wanted to turn off half hour in. Never again will I watch this. No where near the first which is a classic!
Awful. I am pretending it doesn’t exist. Stop ruining the best movies with these terrible remakes and sequels!
Though uneven in parts and lacking the original’s dark tone, it’s still a must-watch to see the three incredible leads slip back into their witchy pointed shoes and have a great time.
Hocus Pocus 2 was a very good, entertaining, sequel to the first movie.
I loved it!! Good characters, not too cringy. My younger siblings loved it too (they preferred it to the first one)
Cringy, terrible! The acting was cringy and awkward. And gave off a complete different vibe from the first movie. Which I think they should of kept the same vibe and type of movie as the original
Nottttthhhhhiiiiinnnngggg beats the original
Truly awful. Don’t waste your time.
If you liked Hocus Pocus 1, you're going to like Hocus Pocus 2! It's the same witches and humor!
Another case in point why the old adage "If it aint broke, don't fix it" still rings true.
