Mine: |
Great idea. Great cast. Just not very good. It has a kind of split personality; sometimes seriious sometimes comic. It never pulls off either.

Leonard Maltin/Plot synopsis: |
Two sisters grow up under the curse of their ancestor (a woman hanged as a witch): any man whom they truly love is doomed. Free-spirited Kidman ignores the threat and leaves their New England home. Bullock lives with her witchly aunts, all too aware of the prophecy . . . until circumstance brings the sisters back together to work some magic of their own. Extremely likable stars make this watchable, but it's a lumpy brew. Based on a book by Alice Hoffman. Super 35.
