Review of Hocus Pocus (1993) by Russell G — 08 Nov 2013
When I was in third grade I thought it was pretty good but it is hard to see why now. It does not hold up as an adult at all. This movie delivers little scare or excitement for adults so that makes it rely mainly its humor.
The problem is this movie just forgot to be funny. It is excusable that the young actors are not very good for a family flick like this so it falls to the witches to make up for them. The three witches are incompetent buffoons to be sure, but they should have been FUNNY incompetent buffoons.
It has a lot of running around, but it has little purpose and I quickly quit caring. I question my 3rd grade self for liking this and I will not be giving it a third watch unless I am in 3rd grade again.
