The Witches

"The energy level could be more consistent and the climactic action and ending less rushed, but there's sufficient charm and invention to make it work." 

"Creepy but superfluous (...) This is no Tim-Burton-does-Willy-Wonka debacle, but neither does it improve on the 1990 version" 

"If only "The Witches" were directed by the Robert Zemeckis who made "Roger Rabbit," and not the Robert Zemeckis who made "The Polar Express (...) Roeg’s version may have scarred a generation of kids for life, but at least they remembered it." 

"With a diabolically funny Anne Hathaway (...) prepare for plenty of shivers and nervous laughs." 

"It’s nothing more than a baroque cartoon horror film, but the best parts have a crackpot malevolence that’s hard to resist." 

"It’s not going to be as iconic as Roeg’s, but it should provide some nice family entertainment at home for Halloween" 

"A colorful and entertaining enough film that completely fails to capture the heart of the story and leaves a sour aftertaste."
