Hocus Pocus
After three centuries, three witch sisters are resurrected in Salem, Massachusetts on Halloween night, and it is up to two teenagers, a young girl, and an immortal cat to put an end to their reign of terror once and for all.

Perhaps I underestimate the power of its generational hold, yet considering the potential of a broad Disney witch romp, Hocus Pocus is an incredibly mediocre movie.

Hocus Pocus remains a delightful family comedy, spooky but never scary as it romps its merry way through the graveyard.

Silly but irresistible.

This comedy is unusually dark for a Disney production and it makes for patchy entertainment.

Forget amusement parks and hockey teams. It's in movie comedies that Disney is having its real crisis, as evidenced by this would-be laugh-getter that begins with the murder of a child and a triple hanging.

This is one of the oddest releases of the summer, and it's hard to imagine it finding a broad audience. With the rather ghoulish deaths of children depicted, it's certainly too strong for very young moviegoers.

Dreadful.

As Shakespeare would have certainly written if he'd been on the movie beat, "Double, double toil and trouble, movie stink and critic bubble/'Hocus Pocus' has no focus/has no rhyme, has no reason/ and is... out of season."

Hocus Pocus is harmless, but it's about as much fun as celebrating Mardi Gras under the influence of candy corn.
August 15, 2015
All things considered, Hocus Pocus is much more entertaining than a pimple-people picture has a right to be.

Though children may be satisfied (if the witch stuff doesn't scare them) adults will have a harder time with the by-the-numbers confrontations between the witches and the plucky youths.

They probably should have left this misfire in the broom closet -- with the other wooden vehicles.
