Anyone watched this movie: The Witches (1990)?!
Question: should I watch it or "do not bother"?
Answers: should I watch it or "do not bother"?
This is a movie which is highly underrated. It is a fantastic adventure about a young boy and his wise grandma who go on vacation along the English coast. Unknowlingly running into Grandma's most feared enemy- the Grand High Witch. When Luke accidentally crosses paths with the Grand High Witch and her Witch minions, it is up to him, Bruno Jenkins, and Grandma to save all the children of England!
Anjelica Huston does a marvelous job at portraying the snobbishly aristocratic Eva Ernst as well as her unmasked counterpart, the evil Grand High Witch. She definitely steals the show in this one, although Mai Zetterling does give one that warm nurturing feeling as the wise but kind grandma. And Jasen Fisher did a good job as well.
Not only is the acting good, but the special effects.. or should i see puppets and makeup.. are marvelous! The grand high witch without her face mask is really a terrible sight! And the little mice, really puppets opposed to the technological computer created special effects, really work out great and give a more earthy feel non animated animal movies.
If your an adult and your looking for a nail biting psychological thriller your looking in a very wrong direction. But if you are looking for a classic, fun, adventure for all ages- I suggest you watch this. I give it an A+!!!!!!!!
Don't bother. It was never worth the time. Little boy turned into a mouse by witches. You'd be better off getting an animated movie (the writing would be better).
The Witches is great if you like roal Dahl. If not then i wouldn't bother, It's a bit cheezy and a bit odd lol but it has a really good cast an i reckon anything is worth a watch once : )
I thought it was a good movie. It's a kids movie, so you're supposed to have to use your imagination. Do it!
Im 14 and ive seen it, its good but its mainly for ages 6 to around 12, it depends what movies your into
..but give it ago you may like it.
Hope this helps.
