I really like this movie and have since I was young. I really think that Charlie Potter (Bruno) Would have been the best bet in Harry Potter as Dudley. Too bad they didnt pick him. Anyway i always wished they would have made an even better part 2. Maybe it's the fact I have gotten a little bit older and mature for this movie's intended audience, but I felt like this was a half-witted attempt to turn another Roald Dahl classic into a film. I'm not saying this movie is terrible, but it just doesn't appeal to me. I will say that this movie would have scared the jeepers out of me maybe ten years ago. The special effects are a bit outdated, but oddly enough, I did like the human-to-mouse transformations. A notice to parents: this movie will probably scare your kid, so beware if you choose to watch this on family night.
Nicholas Roeg's film is about a recently-orphaned boy who moves to England with his grandmother. Staying at a hotel, he comes across a witch convention where he learns that they want to turn every English child into a mouse. Now he must try and save the day before its too late.
Nothing is wrong with the acting I suppose. Anjelica Huston has a knack of playing in these kind of Gothic material, so this film is in her wheelhouse and I think she was appropriately scary. The rest of the actors, outside of Rowan Atkinson, are relatively unknown. I thought they did an okay job though.
Overall, The Witches comes across as a mediocre children film and a shabby Dahl adaptation (when compared to the likes of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. There were plenty of amusing moments, and I liked the overall scary tone. This is essentially a scary movie for kids, so it's not my cup of tea. I guess kids will like this film more than I do, and that is perfectly alright.
My Grade: C.

The whole film, cast, acting, superb. I mean it's 2019 now but I remember watching this as a kid & loving every moment of it. I could watch this over and over. And I have.
