Goofs:
Revealing mistakes: When Max first gives Allison his number, it is on the top left corner of a piece of notebook paper, where the holes are clearly visible, once they are outside and she returns the paper, once he opens it, his name and number are now on the top right corner of a piece of printer paper, where there are no holes.

I prepared my self when I sat down to watch this movie, expecting a boring Disney film not for my generation. But this movie was hilarious! Bette Midler, Kathy Najimy and Sarah Jessica Parker were fantastic in their roles as the witches, especially Midler in her role as Winifred. Unfortunately there is no soundtrack to this film, which is a shame but not a tragedy. Overall a fantastic film that the whole family should enjoy.
