Practical Magic 2 Fails to Cast a Fresh Spell With Critics

Rotten Tomatoes’ early critics give Practical Magic 2 a 34% rotten score, calling it a retread of the 1998 film, though Bullock and Kidman’s chemistry earns some praise; the belated sequel follows the Owens sisters 25 years after the original as they try to end a family curse. The original sits at 30% on RT with audiences warmer (73% fresh). Warner Bros. is betting on star power to buoy performance, but reviews remain mixed and more critiques are still to come.
