Hocus Pocus 2

Maybe because I was never a person that worshipped the original, I found the the sequel to be a good Halloween watch with my kids. This takes place years later, and while much of the cast has changed, the core three witches are the same. While there were not many burst of loud laughs I found it to be an enjoyable Holiday watch with my kids. The cast was very good; Midler, Parker, and Najmy seem to relish the return to these roles after so many years, and I think the audience welcomes that as well. The Special effects and cinematography are good. The music is fun. The costume design and make up are perfect for this type of a movie, which walks the line of being a fun Halloween family movie with a little edge.
