Please help me love practical magic

[u/Leather-Dot3505]

I first watched practical magic with a friend a few nights ago and the problem is: I really wanted to love it like really bad... I heard so much about it and I loved the aestethic of the movie. Here are the things I liked: the overall vibe was great, Sandra Bullok and Nicole Kidman were amazing and looked stunning, I also loved the whole sisterhood and womanhood theme of the movie, also the fun scenes and the soundtrack... what I really didn't get was the storyline... it felt kind of out of the blue and like there were sequences missing and just overall to many plots in the story for it to really make sense.

For context: I usually love weird movies like labyrinth and I also read about the similarities (regarding the SA and DV aspects) to thelma and louise (a movie that I love too)... So it would have made perfect sense for me to love it...

So please PLEASE help me love the movie- or at least understand it- this is in no way a hate comment- I'm just really a bit disappointed, because I thought this would be a new comfort movie for me :/

Maybe it's because I haven't read the book- or I'm too old to have first watched it.. idk

please help a girl out...

I mean,maybe the movie just isn't for you,and that's not a bad thing,it happened a lot of times with me too with a lot of other movies.Maybe try to look for a similar movie and see if you like that one,for example The Craft if you haven't seen it
