The Narration by Chris Rock makes it feel like Everybody Hates Chris, but with Witches. The CGI is also overdone. The original was creepier due to the make-up and effects from Jim Henson’s workshop. This one is more interested in showing off what it can do with CGI which is too typical these days. The casting is good despite the narration not needed at all. Anne Hatherway is decent but tries too hard. Anjelica Huston was just naturally better in the role without all the overacting. Octavia Spencer as the witch expert grandmother works the most. Stanley Tucci also is good casting as the hotel manager. The movie won’t make you forget the original at all. I wanted to like it more. However it felt uneven and rushed. Despite a good start. The original is way more magical. The ending to this is just weird too.
