Critic Comments: “Practical Magic didn’t need to be a blockbuster in 1998 to be worth resurrecting now. Fans likely would have kept returning to the Owens’ iconic house every October, whether or not Hollywood ever came knocking again. So, live a little! And let yourself fall for Practical Magic 2 like you’ve never been hurt before." - IndieWire "The overarching, if occasionally overwritten ('no magic is stronger than sisterhood'), theme of feminine solidarity through cyclical adversity is winning enough. The midnight margarita redux may feel obligatory, but there’s just enough magic here to still, despite everything, cast a peculiar spell." - The Guardian "As the Owens well know, some spells are built to last, others to be broken. Some movies are made to endure in the public's affection, such that there's appetite for a follow-up even decades later." - The Hollywood Reporter "The real magic of that original movie was the emphasis on its female characters, something not totally lost here. Bullock and Kidman still cast quite the spell." - Consequence "Practical Magic 2 delivers an overwhelming hit for audiences who loved the first one, bringing back the warmth, family dynamic, and women triumphing through love and loss. A charming return to the beloved world of the Owens family." — Forbes
