I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Alex Medford (Cher) is a sculptor and a single mom. Jane Spofford (Susan Sarandon) is a cellist, music teacher, divorced and barren. Sukie Ridgemont (Michelle Pfeiffer) is a local columnist and alone with six daughters. The three single friends lament the lack of quality men and share their dream man wishes. Then the mysterious wild Daryl Van Horne (Jack Nicholson) arrives with his manservant Fidel buying the Lennox Mansion which is suppose to be the site of witch burnings. He seduces the three women unleashing their inner power. Felicia Alden (Veronica Cartwright) is the religious wife of newspaper editor Clyde Alden (Richard Jenkins) who is Sukie's boss.Firstly, Jack Nicholson is perfectly cast for this role. The problem is that I hate this character. I find him annoying and really off-putting. He's not fun to watch. There is something more than simply evil that is grating on my nerves. It makes the movie hard to watch although the story is interesting. I just don't find it fun.

In the traditional and conservative Eastwick, the sculptress Alexandra Medford (Cher), the shy musician and teacher Jane Spofford (Susan Sarandon) and the journalist Sukie Ridgemont (Michelle Pfeiffer) are best friends. Alexandra is a widow; Jane is divorced since she can not have a child; and Sukie is divorced because she frequently gets pregnant and has five children. They are sexually repressed and one night, they describe the characteristics of their ideal man while drinking. There is a storm on the town and the mysterious Daryl Van Horne (Jack Nicholson) appears in town and buy a notorious mansion. NJobody can recall his name, but he seduces the three friends. Meanwhile the pious Felicia Alden (Veronica Cartwright), who is married with Sukie's boss Clyde Alden (Richard Jenkins), has a weird accident and feels that Daryl is the devil. When Felicia dies, Alexandra, Jane and Sukie realize that there is something strange about Daryl. But what can they do? "The Witches of Eastwick" is a sexy and original film with a strange combination of horror and comedy. Jack Nicholson is comfortable performing another totally incorrect character. The sinful witches are represented by three gorgeous actresses. The special effects are great and responsible for funny scenes. My vote is seven.Title (Brazil): "As Bruxas de Eastwick" ("The Witches of Eastwick")

Jack Nicholson, Cher, Susan Sarandon and Michelle Pfeiffer star in this 1987 horror comedy based on the book. This takes place in small, New England town, Eastwick where we meet single women, Alex (Cher), Jane (Sarandon) and Sukie (Pfeiffer) who turn out to be witches longing for change in their lives and the perfect man. They get their wishes, when they meet mysterious, suave man, Daryl (Nicholson) who seduces them. Soon, they learn he's not as charming as he appears and use witchcraft on him to teach him a lesson. I've always enjoyed this film, it sort of pokes fun at "The Exorcist," Jack & the cast are great as well as John Williams' score. I recommend this good horror comedy.

i never thought that i would like this movie but its great first the acting was amazing but jack really steels the show he was funny as heck he made you hate him but at the same time you charming the rest where great to its not for kids its really mature and for the problem i had with the movie it is sort of off at parts so off its wired to watch the movie it was made by George miller who made mad max and surprisingly happy feet so he did a great job the special effects where OK at parts its the 90s so that gets a pass the music was wired as while it doesit feel like john Williams did the score for this it sounds a bit to magical but over all its a great time
