Twitches is a movie that has a kind heart and easygoing sentiment, which makes criticism and mediocre reception a bit disheartening. The film isn't particularly harmful, is very often silly, redundant, but always has its heart in the right place along with having the ability to be cherished by kids who grew up with it or a new generation of Disney Channel audiences.But film criticism - at least on my end - won't be as kind as I was hoping for Twitches. It's a pretty bland, frothy film, with little conflict, subpar special effects (especially considering its $20 million budget, which is absurdly large for a Television movie), and boring leads with little talents outside of having the looks to be on TV. The film could be an effective poster-child for describing the cinematic equivalent of flat soda.The film stars Tia and Tamera Mowry from TV's Sister, Sister (one of the many TV shows from the nineties my generation fetishizes). They star as Alexandra and Camryn, respectively, two magical twin sisters who were separated at birth when a war on their homeland of the Coventry claimed the life of their father. When their guardians transport them to the land where magic is non-existent - also known as Earth - the girls are raised in separate homes and have no idea of each others existence. Alex grows up quietly, with few friends and a mother who died recently. Meanwhile, Camryn is blessed with an upper-class lifestyle and a talent for drawing.The two girls celebrate their twenty-first birthday on Halloween, and run into each other at the mall. They are astounded by the fact that they look very similar to each other and are informed by those same aforementioned guardians of their life back in the Coventry. The girls both knew of the Coventry in some way, but never knew what its connection was. For example, Camryn thought it came directly from her mind when she was drawing. Now, in a time of total chaos, the sisters must restore the Coventry The sisters Mowry have the looks and charm to be on Television, but, as demeaning as it is to say, do not have the acting capabilities. Their performances are carried largely by smiles and perky attitudes, while their dialog is largely given nothing but a wooden justice. It also doesn't help that Stuart Gillard's direction is rather flat and, for some baffling reason, the four writers who joined forces to create this film couldn't breed some considerable life into its material. The production is either hopelessly cheesy, depressingly boring, or in search of a direction in between lax and flashy.Twitches works as serviceable Disney-fare, and doesn't possess any ridiculous characteristics many kids shows/movies are known to possess today. But, if anything, if this and Hocus Pocus prove anything it's that witches aren't that interesting, and very few directions may work to make them a viable point of interest in film.Starring: Tia Mowry, Tamera Mowry, Kristen Wilson, Patrick Fabian, Jennifer Robertson, and Pat Kelly. Directed by: Stuart Gillard.

OK, so there are a lot of movies based on books, and they are usually much worse, but this one is an exception: its is just utterly terrible!!! The T*Witches series were my favorite books growing up, and I read them again and again and again. I know them inside and out. So I also know that this movie hardly follows the same storyline at all.The girls are supposed to be resentful of each other. In the first book on the series, they almost hated each other, and when they met, they didn't even want to admit the other looked like them. And they were also only 14, and it wasn't their birthday. And they weren't even purposely brought together. They just happened to run into each other at a fairground where Alex worked. Alex was always more of a punk with brightly colored hair, and Cam is more of a prep. Karsh is supposed to be black, and VERY old! And Thantos isn't really that evil. In fact, in one of the books near the end of the series, he actually saves Cam from drowning.I haven't even seen the whole movie, and I don't ever plan on finishing it! The books I loved were a total sell out to some annoying "Sister Sister" Disney actresses. So you played twins on a Disney Channel show (that also sucked)? That doesn't mean you have what it takes to take on the roles of Artemis and Apolla! I would have actually preferred the Olsen Twins. At least in some of their movies they actually explored what most of us call "acting."

We all need a fantasy and magical movie. This movie was really good and Tia and Tamera were magical on screen. Illena and Karsh were so funny, Kristen Wilson shined as Miranda. Lucenda and Beth were awesome and Mr and Mrs. Barns were perfect and the music was great to listen to and Thanos was really good. The special effects were amazing and it needed more magic. Twitches is great to watch anybody, if you want to watch a fantasy movie or if you want to watch a magical mystery movie then this movie is for you. I recommend anybody to watch it especially preteens or kids. The location is great and i loved the scene when Alex and Camyrn were playing around with their magic, it was so funny, especially turning karsh into a monkey. I give this movie a 9/10 rating.

Twitches is another sad cheesy film. The plot I found was stale and feeble. The basic plot without giving anything away is two girls reunite on their 21st birthday after being adopted by two different families blah, blah they unite to fight the evil called the 'Darkness'. I won't tell you what the Darkness in fear of spoiling but if your over 15 you may smirk at what you see. The film is really, really predictable 20minutes in the film and you'll already have the story summed up. With the cheesy joke here and the failed drama there it is eventually twitches. This film is really for young girls, I saw it at my 12 year old cousins' house they liked it and I was appalled. Boo Twitches, Boo Twitches
