Tara Erickson & John Humphrey watch Practical Magic (1998) for the first time in this full movie reaction and review as they begin their Road to Practical Magic 2. Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman star as Sally and Gillian Owens, two sisters born into a family of witches whose romantic lives are haunted by a centuries-old curse. Tara & John react to the iconic “Midnight Margaritas” scene, Sally’s Amas Veritas love spell, Jimmy Angelov’s supernatural return, the Owens aunts’ eccentric magic, the townswomen joining forces, and the unforgettable Halloween ending. The Owens sisters return when Sandra Bullock and Nicole Kidman reunite for Practical Magic 2, arriving in theaters September 10, 2026. The sequel also brings back Dianne Wiest and Stockard Channing alongside Joey King, Lee Pace, Maisie Williams, Xolo Maridueña, and Solly McLeod!
