I put a spell on you......

Rating: 6/10 (31 October 2019)

I like the films and if I have one criticism, there's rather too much plot standby like' it's Thingummy all along' as one character morphs into someone else so you have to recalibrate all you've seen to factor in .....Who am I kidding?! Never having read the books apart from a chapter to my nephew years ago at bedtime and scared him,so he said,I dont have prior knowledge and well it's witchcraft innit so all reality is binned and anything can happen despite at its core,a kind of restrained version of St Trinians,with most of its characters middle class and despite an enormous suspension of disbelief, respectful old buffers who just happen to be carrying wands.Add to that some impressive baddies and the sweet friendship between the front three and you have a hit.All done without Judy Dench,
Wizard!
