The Witches is the rarest thing you'll ever see: a black comedy for children. Adults just assume that kids don't have the level of wit and sophistication to appreciate sly and sarcastic humour, but here that theory is challenged with a vengeance and this film proves itself to be a wickedly entertaining, knowingly cruel pantomime.
The story finds a young boy named Luke moving in with his Grandma following the death of his parents. She lives in Norway and is something of a witch expert. Pretty soon, she has filled his mind with tales of witchery and caution. Grandma falls seriously ill and is advised to go to the English seaside to recover, accompanied by Luke. Whilst there, Luke uncovers the fact that the RSPCC meeting in the hotel is actually a front for a society of witches. He is captured by them and metamorphosised into a mouse, but still comes up with a plot to wipe them out.
This film is enormous fun, punctuated by offbeat performances (Huston as the Grand High Witch of All the World is terrifying and funny in equal measure) and splendid puppet work. The story uses the moral that children should "never talk to strangers" but enhances it with the ingenious and disturbing premise of witches being responsible for evil acts towards children. The story has real pace and purpose, and constantly turns up another surprise or twist just when you think you've figured out what's coming next. The supporting performances are very nicely judged (Atkinson as the snooty hotel manager, Zetterlig as the wise grandmother, etc. All in all, this is a must-see kids' flick for kids and adults of all ages.

SPOILER: The movie is a very good film. The actors are wonderful and it keeps you hanging on. But what was with the transformation? In the movie, the witches turn a boy into a mouse to test out there show the kid (who is a stout brat with a high eating disorder) turn into a mouse. And you can't help but feel sorry for him. The effects that they do are so gut wrenching(and kind of funny) This is the high light of the film I think. These are not "The Witches of Eastwick" nor the witches of "Hocus Pocus, they are Roald Dahl's version of witches.
In this movie a boy discovers the heinous plot of a group of witches in England. Although he was transformed into a mouse, he has to figure out a way to stop these witches, led by the Grand High Witch (Anjelica Huston) before they execute their plan.
This is a funny movie that is catered towards children, yet can be enjoyed by adults.
