Notes on…

Bewitched(2005)

Dir. Directed by Nora Ephron


A film about magic made by people who find the idea of magic risible.

Bee Wilson (The London Review of Books)


One has only to look at two shots of Kidman and Ferrell to feel the dead, smothering hand of politeness that bonds (and traps) two aliens getting $17.5 million for this foolishness.

— David Thomson (Nicole Kidman, 2006)
