I had never seen the first Practical Magic by the time that I saw Practical Magic 2. And in fact, I still haven’t seen the original PM as of writing this review. Some might consider that rather impractical. That consideration makes me think of the prank series Impractical Jokers, which I’ve similarly never seen. So did Sandy Bullock and Nic Kidman’s supernatural shenanigans make me want to finally check out The Tenderloins pulling off their practical jokes? Well, to put it plainly: not at all. Has this all been a rather impractical way of reviewing this particular cinematic experience? I suppose it has. Anyway, I enjoyed Sandy bantering with Lee Pace a bit.
