See the film and you'll get it."   FromTheBalcony   Bill Clark C "Bewitched is a poorly executed mess that no wiggle of the nose can save."   FilmJerk.com   Brian Orndorf 2.5/4 "What keeps Bewitched just barely out of the summer slush pile is its sense of light-hearted fun."   Slant Magazine   Chris Barsanti "Kidman again reveals her light, precise comic touch."   PopMatters   Cynthia Fuchs 2/5 "It’s got some special effects, but the magic’s in short supply."   eFilmCritic.com   Dan Lybarger 2/4 "...a fairly mediocre little comedy that proves that Nicole Kidman should probably stay away from the genre."   Reel Film Reviews   David Nusair C "The remake of a TV show should have come with canned laughter because after awhile it was hard to tell that this was supposed to be a comedy."   Ozus' World Movie Reviews   Dennis Schwartz 2/4 "Feels unfinished, like a rough cut still awaiting a much-needed polish. Fleetingly amusing? Yes. Full-out magical? Not so much."   TheMovieBoy.com   Dustin Putman B- "A rather charming and delightful comedy, its many flaws notwithstanding."   EricDSnider.com   Eric D. Snider C "Almost unprofessional."   Film Blather   Eugene Novikov D "Loud, frantic and charmless... Bewitched is really the wrong title for this botched brew, but then 'Cursed' was already taken."   One Guy's Opinion   Frank Swietek 1/4 "A travesty of monumental proportions."   ReelViews   James Berardinelli 2/5 "Will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman try to turn an old TV show into a magical Hollywood satire, but their trick's not much of a treat."   Netflix   James Rocchi 3/10 "Bewitched [the show] was unassuming, charming, maybe a little innocent; this movie is smug, patronizing, and a little infantile."   ReelTalk Movie Reviews   Jeffrey Chen 5/10 "...I’m not sure if I’m just Ferrell’d out or if his character in this movie just didn’t strike me as being overly humorous.."   JoBlo's Movie Emporium   JoBlo 3/4 "The Ephrons have an easy way with the romantic-comedy genre."   Big Picture Big Sound   Joe Lozito 4/10 "Will Ferrell? Time to start reading your scripts again, pal."   Planet Sick-Boy   Jon Popick 2.5/4 "Es una lástima que las hermanas Ephron no hayan podido aterrizar una idea que sonaba interesante en un principio pero que, finalmente, es víctima de sus propios malos hechizos"   Moviola   Jorge Avila Andrade 2.5/5 "full review in Greek"   Movies for the Masses   Joseph Proimakis 2.5/5 "The trailer gave away what this movie needed to give us lots of: surprises. Sweet, funny, amusing, but never gels."   Cinerina   Karina Montgomery 2/5 "With such little chemistry between the characters, I’m surprised this film was actually completed."   7M Pictures   Kevin Carr C- "Dreary dialogue, over-exposure to Ferrell and Kidman's ill-informed direction to channel Marilyn lite make Bewitched a bad spell at the movies. "   Reeling Reviews   Laura Clifford 2/5 "Once the multilayered real-vs.-reel high jinks wear out their welcome, the absence of magic is sadly evident."   TV Guide's Movie Guide   Maitland McDonagh "[A]n evil brew of misogynist tripe, faux-ironic nostalgia, and painfully false romantic comedy that purports to be... ‘edgy’..."   Flick Filosopher   MaryAnn Johanson 2/4 "Ephron takes a perfectly workable, big-screen ready concept and renders it needlessly complicated and barely recognizable."   Mr. Brown's Movies   Michael Dequina 3/4 "Bewitched has more giggles than belly laughs, but it’s not the same-old same old, and the massive appeal of Will Ferrell and Nicole Kidman is undeniable."   Aisle Seat   Mike McGranaghan B+ "As cute as the magical twitch of Samantha Stephens' nose."   Movie Mom at Yahoo! Movies   Nell Minow 2/5 "starts promisingly, with an ingenious premise, an engaging cast and a bouncy tone ... then turns into an especially slushy Ephron rom-com"   Shadows on the Wall   Rich Cline C- "[The TV Bewitched is] a heck of a lot better and much more entertaining than this new “reinvention”"   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford 6/10 "Fast out of the gate but slowing in the back stretch, this film will need witchcraft to keep all but the hardiest fans awake for the final kiss."   Monsters and Critics   Ron Wilkinson C "If only someone in the script department could wiggle their nose, we might have had a few more laughs to hang our pointed black caps on."   Flipside Movie Emporium   Sean O'Connell "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."   Salon.com   Stephanie Zacharek 6/10 "A cute comedic performance by Nicole Kidman which outclasses the movie."   Modamag.com   Susan Granger 0/4 "You're likely to want to pluck out your eyeballs."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 2/4 "Blame Will Farrell and the director who let him run amok for the failure of this film."   Oscar Guy   Wesley Lovell  (1 - 35) of 35 OFCS Rating: 20% Rotten Page   1
