Where to begin
What's good
Umm not much
This is yet another (i n the long list of remakes, sequels and prequels) essentially sub standard cheap money grabs on the original films.
Not able to write a decent script (or too miserly to pay for one) the evil antagonists were turned into disney politically correct non villains.
There are no evil villains this is an all inclusivity welcomingl diversity film
Disnification is the cinematic equivalent of McCarthisim. I.e. Instead of telling a story of goodies and baddies everybody is good, just 'misunderstood'.
Another bland, mediocre, unremarkable fan mashup remake, re-sell.
So dissappointed.
Surely even the fans must be getting fed up with being spoon fed pap.
Not worth watching, certainly not worth the price of a cinema ticket.

Plot summary
Three young women accidentally bring back the Sanderson Sisters to modern-day Salem and must figure out how to stop the child-hungry witches from wreaking havoc on the world. The world may have been free of Winifred, Mary, and Sarah and the fear they invoked in us all, but what happens when you mess with magic? It messes back.

Fan Service Gone Wrong, there is no magic to this story
Disappointment with a capital D
Sorry, but this was indeed a big disappointment. One would expect Disney with all of it's resources, both financially and creative talent to make this work. As a matter of fact I was extremely surprised and annoyed to see that from over 12000 ratings nearly 18% gave this movie the top rating. I was influenced by this as a 6.3 overall rating is pretty good by IMDB standards. If this movie was trying to convey a message it was totally lost on me. I think for children it might be entertaining enough, but Disney used to make productions that would appeal to the whole family. I admit that my rating of 1 is to low, but I try to compensate for what I consider a very biased overall to positive rating. It certainly didn't match the 1993 original.
Acting on par with a bad middle school play
Took sheer will power to get through the first 10 minutes it was like watching a middle school play. The 3 young witches were acting like they were waiting for us audience members to clap for how "cute" they were acting and it wasn't cute. So goofy! In a bad way. Terrible over the top acting!!! Everyone was trying way too hard. The first one felt grounded in reality within the fantasy of it, we could relate to the characters and it is such a great comfort movie I have watched every Halloween. This movie belongs at the bottom of the trash bin in what I would label as generic. All the actors were acting with a capital A! It's trying way too hard. The one playing the boyfriend, Froy something was so animatedly over acting it was painful. You may like this film if you're of the brainless and passive influencer crowd, but I don't know how a fan of the original could love this. I feel violated. Casting and films today are all about cheap optics and not good story telling.
