Source Brief Review Grade*
Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Jill Vejnoska
"Not magic, but not a standard witchy-washy remake either." more... B-
Boston Globe
Ty Burr
"...a juvenile movie, made for people who watch their romantic comedies while wearing a bib." more... C-
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
"...tolerably entertaining." more... B-
Chicago Tribune
Michael Wilmington
"...an uninspired misfire of a TV-series knockoff..." more... C  
E! Online "Nicole Kidman usually has a nose for smart projects, but here the Oscar winner wiggles hers into one big mess." more... D  
Entertainment Weekly
Lisa Schwarzbaum
"The Ephron sisters, sophisticates entrusted with a simple TV situation comedy, lose the magic of the com as they mess with the sit." more... C  
filmcritic.com
David Levine
"No amount of spells or hocus pocus can turn this befuddled re-creation of the classic into something worth watching." more... D+
Hollywood Reporter
Michael Rechtshaffen
"More vexing than hexing, this labored production seldom gets off the ground." more... C-
New York Post
Lou Lumenick
"...un-magical, unfunny and un-romantic alleged comedy..." more... D  
New York Times
Manohla Dargis
"Outside of the perfomers, which include Nicole Kidman, Will Ferrell and a nicely tuned supporting cast, there isn't much to look at here." more... C  
ReelViews
James Berardinelli
"The motion picture version of Bewitched is a travesty of monumental proportions that belongs in the 'What the hell were they thinking?' category." more... D  
San Francisco Chronicle
Mick LaSalle
"...it's funny, easily the funniest and least self-conscious movie that director Nora Ephron has made." more... B+
Seattle Post-Intelligencer
William Arnold
"Sadly, it's a disappointment." more... C+
USA Today
Claudia Puig
"Bewitched will not cast you under its spell. It is more likely to bother and bewilder." more... C+
