The 2005 remake

I loved parts of it! I was disappointed in the last part of it.

I thought it was clever to have a woman who WAS a witch play a character in a TV show who was a witch. It was an interesting concept. Nicole Kidman was charming. Michael Caine was excellent as always.

Never understood why the character played by Will Farrell would choose that TV show to star in. Clearly the main character is Samantha, but he wanted to be the star of the show.

The first half of the movie was funny. But the second half lost me. It seemed unfocused and all over the place as if the writers didn't know what to do with the concept that they created.

Not a bad movie though. I don't hate it.

For me, it was one hundred percent dreadful. Kidman was a good choice, but Jim Carry would've been a far greater
choice for Darrin. For starters, he possesses much of the same comedic talent of York, but also resembles Sargent.
He would've been fantastic. The rest of the cast is fine.

The problems? How much time do you have? The choice of dropping "an ordinary mortal falls in love with a witch"
for a story-within-a-story was a bad one. And you can blames the director - the late what's-her-name - who openly
expressed little interest in the show (stating "I preferred The Mary Tyler Moore Show" - as if you could compare them!).

The film is lumpy, unfunny, at times embarrassing, and a total insult to the memory of the series. Kidman, herself,
is an extraordinary actor and deserved way better. It was a flop, so everybody lost - the studio, the stars, and the
fans of the show.

a disaster

Hated it. I was embarassed for all involved. Kinda glad it failed. We won't be subjected to another remake for awhile...

i really liked it but im also super-biased as a Will Ferrell fan.

I was so disappointed in this movie. I rewatched it a few years ago, and still wasn't a fan. Nicole Kidman was fine, and I normally like Will Ferrell, but it didn't have many of the elements that make me love the original show. The only parts I liked were the characters from the show who "visited" them (Aunt Clara, Uncle Arthur and the wonderful Amy Sedaris as Gladys at the end).

Never saw it. I was never a big fan of the original, but a friend of mine thought it was the bee's knees.
