ČARODĚJNICE režiséra Roberta Zemeckiho se vrací k oblíbené pohádce Roalda Dahla a přináší ji ve vizuálně inovativní podobě, která osloví současné publikum. Vypráví vtipný i dojemný příběh osiřelého chlapce (Jahzir Kadeem Bruno), který se na sklonku roku 1967 stěhuje ke své milující babičce (Octavia Spencer) do alabamského městečka Demopolis. Když se setkají s na první pohled noblesními, ovšem jaksepatří ukrutnými čarodějnicemi, babička vnoučka prozíravě odváží do elegantního přímořského resortu. Bohužel dorazí právě v termínu, na který nejvyšší z čarodějnic (Anne Hathaway) svolala své družky z celého světa – samozřejmě v utajení –, aby jí pomohly uskutečnit její ohavné plány.

Hodnotenia a recenzie

Absolutely pathetic attempt to remake a classic. Ruins the story in favor of liberal pandering. The blackwashing would be fine if it didn't read like some bad southern caricature. I honestly couldn't get through more than half the movie without falling asleep. If race politics gives you a hard on then maybe this is the film for you, but if your after a good remake of a Roald Dahl classic. Your going to be more than sorely disappointed and confused.

Not sure why the ratings are so low! Probably racist turds! As a 31 year old white mother, who grew up with Roald Dahl as a child...... l adore the original but this is a refreshing take on it. It isn't a desperate remake that copies the original for money. This version is fantastic. My kids enjoyed it and so did I. Definitely worth a watch. Still keeps to the novels premise and makes it relevant to our kids today. Edit: To the recent reviews: A) Your mindset makes this movie political. Sad.

Huston in the old version is impossible to beat, but this new version has merit, does not attempt a mere clone, has a more satisfying backstory and denouement and a much more interesting conclusion/coda than the original. That huge difference in the coda between the old and new films may generate the hate. The more conventional, saccharin, Hollywood "happy ending" of the old version may be preferred by some, but the new ending has a different, stranger, magic some kids would prefer.
