Lets dos another movie review - Bewitched

"Hot-shot actor Jack Wyatt, set to star as Darrin in a film version of the '60s TV series 'Bewitched', finds his ideal Samantha in unknown actress Isabel, who just happens to be a witch in real life."



Genres: Comedy, Romance and Science Fiction/Fantasy
Running Time: 1 hr. 30 min.
Release Date: June 24th, 2005 (wide).
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some language, including sex and drug references, and partial nudity.
Distributor: Columbia Pictures

This movie is actually about the hit TV series 'Bewitched' which was somewhere around, erm... hmmm... 1964-1972? Gosh - mek lahir pong belum! Hmmm. So anyways, the movie is erm, I wouldn't say a remake of Bewitched tu, but I'd say its a movie about how ppl (in the movie of course) nak remake and redo that 1960s hit into a blockbuster movie (speku ke?)

The lead role would be Isabel (Nicole Kidman), a real time life witch (notice tak dia selalu main role witch witch nih? Hmmm) who doesn't seem to know very much pasal being human, being NORMAL. The first few minutes when the movie started pon, dah tunjuk pasal she's a witch, which I think macam, came out of nowhere. It should have been like citer lah SIKIT pun jadik lah about Isable nih sebenarnya a witch (although the actions does cover it all, hmmm) So anyways, yang pastinya, she does wanna be normal and tried her level best to be one, walaupun tidak disetujui oleh her father, Michael Caine (Ala! The guy who played the professional styler dalam Miss Congen tu... remember?)

Michael Caine... the dad witch tanpa nama? Hmmmm... ke mek missed out the name part? Hmmmm....


"Over the objections of her father, she moves into a suburban house, buys some groceries, and settles in, dreaming of finding someone who will need her" - they've missed the part where she decided to be normal tu. Macam I said on earlier, start2 movie tu dah terus tunjuk dia nak beli rumah la ape la siap guna2 magic... haiyoh... mek sunggoh fongkiused memula itiew. Tapi mek suka dia feeling2 berangan nak find someone who will need her. Note: " brangan = feeling = ME!!! " Oppss! Dosalah kau Fish!

Mula2 mek dinch suks tgk dia nih - tapi after a while, candiew pulak? Hmmm - Ferrell, who plays Jack Wyatt who plays Darrin in Bewitched


So eventually she ran into this guy, Jack Wyatt (Ferrell), who so happens to be a pathetic movie star whose combination of professional and personal disasters has left him professionally and personally vulnerable to the point of complete desperation - how pathetic and sad can a guy get lar? Dia yang akan play the roll of Darrin in Bewitched the Movie itiew, but he agrees to play the role, only if he gets to choose the right Samantha - Binggo - Kidman! Tapi, he also agreed that the movie is all about the mortal husband Darrin and not about the witch Samanta - so for the obvious reasons, the part of Samantha the witch must go to an unknown; like, very like berdiri like the tiang pacak, tapi scripts nan ado - so not Bewitched.

Bercinta... sudahhh lama... berkasih, dan bermesra!


Trauma dilanda cinta dengan Mr Right who seemed so Wrong? Hmmm...


Mula2 tu, since Isable dinch hui about the human world and stuffs, which leads her to accept things and whatever people say without looking for attempst to mislead her - intentionally or not, she sort of like, delighted sangat2 to play along with the role and with Wyatts' plans. But later on, when things got complicated, and when the truth about Wyatts plan tu diketahui Isable, things went on from slow to fast paste, and yes, it involved magic, which she tried to avoid from using.

Isabel the witch with Aunt Clara kot? Hmm... I think so, yes... heheheh!


I've read couple of reviews about this movie and ramai yang berpendapat it was a total flop katanya. Not for me. Mek rate A for this movie. It's entertaining, fun, funny and also romantic... Bewitch 2005 is not a remake of the old 1960s series, it's a movie about how other people attemps to remake that series. Hmmm - faham dak? Overall I'd say, a job well done for Kidman who played Isable who played Samantha... hmmmm???? Apapun, mek tetap suka the movie, mek tetap suke Kidman!!!
