Practical Magic
Instrueret af Griffin Dunne
- Recordedsnake1. januar 2026Practical Magic is a charming, spellbinding blend of romance, comedy, and gentle darkness that only gets better with time. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman share irresistible sisterly chemistry, grounding the film’s magic in warmth, grief, and love. With its autumnal atmosphere, memorable soundtrack, and themes of family, fate, and choosing your own path, the film feels both cozy and quietly powerful. It’s a comforting, enchanting classic, that's perfect for anyone who believes a little magic makes life richer.
- flavo4315. december 2025Practical Magic (1998) brings together an impressive cast, charming sets, and a promising premise, yet the film struggles to balance its tones. The strongest elements lie in the relationships between the Owens sisters, portrayed with warmth and authenticity by Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman. Their bond grounds the story and gives emotional weight to themes of loss, resilience, and the lingering trauma of domestic violence. Unfortunately, the magical aspects—meant to add whimsy and mystery—often feel silly, disjointed, and at odds with the darker, more serious material. The inconsistent approach to magic undermines the film’s attempts at suspense and dilutes the impact of the family curse that drives the plot. While the production design and atmosphere are appealing, the uneven storytelling keeps the film from reaching its full potential. Practical Magic is heartfelt and engaging in parts, but its tonal imbalance ultimately holds it back.
- Ninepintcoggie1. november 2025If Sandra Bullock said she summoned me with a love spell I wouldn't hear what she said next because I'd already be moving in It does feel like it's either written or cut very oddly. The first 30 minutes of the movie seem to be very disjointed. If there's a directors cut I need to watch it

Søstrene Sally (Sandra Bullock) og Gillian Owens (Nicole Kidman) vokser op hos to excentriske tanter (Stockard Channing og Dianne Wiest) efter deres forældres død. Et hjem der er alt andet end normalt. Familien er et dynasti af hekse, der siden 1600-tallet har praktiseret hvid magi. Men de enestående kræfter har deres pris - eller rettere sagt forbandelse. For de mænd, som Owens kvinderne forelsker sig i, er dømt til en brat og alt for tidlig død. Sally fornægter sine evner - hvorimod Gillian kaster sig ud i heksetilværelsen. Men da Gillian i desperation over en voldelig kæreste tilkalder Sally - og de sammen forgiver ham - så dukker den mistænksomme politimand Gary Hallet (Aidan Quinn) op. Nu må de særlige evner tages i brug, for at tingene kan falde på plads!
