Stanley Tucci, Anne Hathaway, Kristin Chenoweth, Octavia Spencer, and Codie-Lei Eastick in Hexen hexen (2020)

In late 1967, a young orphaned boy (Bruno) goes to live with his Grandma (Spencer) in the rural Alabama town of Demopolis. As the boy and his grandmother encounter some deceptively glamorous but thoroughly diabolical witches, she wisely whisks our young hero away to an opulent seaside resort. Regrettably, they arrive at precisely the same time that the world's Grand High Witch (Hathaway) has gathered her fellow cronies from around the globe to carry out her nefarious plans.

Wissenswertes
The original 1983 novel was largely set in the United Kingdom (with a few scenes in Norway). This movie adaptation is set in the US state of Alabama, but, ironically, was mostly filmed in the United Kingdom (though some exteriors were shot in Alabama and Georgia). Octavia Spencer is originally from Alabama.

Patzer
Near the end at 1 hour 34 min Hero mouse references to Mary as Daisy although he learned earlier in the movie her real name and commented on it that it's pretty.

Zitate
[being cornered by her own cat]
Grand High Witch: Remember who it was who feeds you... No, don't think about food!

3/10

Please make these awful remakes stop.

Oh Dear,

This should have been good, it needed to be good, sadly it just isn't. It's one of those films where a remake didn't seem to be necessary, but as someone that loved Roald Dahl as a child my interest was peaked.

It's inconsistent throughout, did they perhaps rush it because of Covid? The special effects look decent in parts, and woeful in others, Anne Hathaway displays personality it's fair to say, but her accent..... If anyone remembers Rentaghost, think Miss Popov, she spans countries from Ireland to Russia, it had me chuckling.

Once again, please, please try and give us something new and original, stop taking things that have already been made, and making them ten times worse. An extra point for casting the wonderful Josette Simon.

It made me want to watch Anjelica Huston.

I paid to download it, that money could have gone on something less awful, like a Donny Osmond cd.

Naff, 3/10.
