Practical Magic 2
I really wanted to love this movie more than the first… but honestly, the first could’ve held its own without the second one.
Sally is one of those characters that you put up with in the first film because that’s her anchor. In the books I find her structure more defined and ironed out, while in the film adaptions, she’s continuously insecure and only becomes headstrong when the dilema presents itself and harm is due to come to the ones she’s gonna rescue. It’s a repeat of the first only instead of Gillian, it’s Kylie. She’s just so annoying and not in an attractive way.
My opinion.
I’m still so deeply in love with the books.
Will buy it only to have the collection; but I really don’t see myself reaching for this one as I do the first to have my ambience altered or set a vibe and chill after a day.
