DVD Movie: Bewitched

Distributor:Sony Pictures Releasing International
Release:June 24th, 2005
Genre:Comedy, Romance, Science Fiction/Fantasy and Adaptation
MPAA Rating:PG-13 for some language, including sex and drug references, and partial nudity.


Rather than make a movie about the TV show, this movie is about a real witch being cast as a witch in a TV show remake of "Bewitched". Nicole Kidman plays the witch Isabel who was discovered for the role of Samantha in the Bewitched TV show by Jack Wyatt (Will Ferrell) - the egocentric actor who will play Darrin, Samantha's husband.

Wyatt would prefer that the spotlight be on him, and becomes competitive when Isabel is getting more attention than he finds preferable. So from initial attraction, Isabel and Jack begin to fight. Isabel has the advantage here as she really is a witch and therefore has powers.

The movie started out with a lot of laughs that petered out in the end.
