Entertainment Reviews:
It's more sophisticated than the usual run of Disney product, but it lacks the inventiveness that could endow it with genuine charm.

Chicago Reader
In its indulgence of extremes, Bedknobs and Broomsticks becomes unwieldy, but also capable of reaching unforgettable heights.

Rating: 7/10 --
A fun, fairly intelligent, unexpectedly witty example of cinema for children at a time when that genre was at one of its lowest-ever ebbs

Antagony & Ecstasy
It is when the film [based on the book by Mary Norton] dives deeply into the realms of fantasy that it is most enjoyable.

Must all films for kids be so shoddy, though? The music is appalling.

The Disney organization is worst when it makes "family entertainment" and best when it sticks to pure, simple, charming fantasy.

Eglantine teaches the children magic, using her new powers to take them on fantastic, fun-filled adventures, all of which they experience on a flying bedframe. But when the neophyte witch decides to use her powers to help the Brits win the war, will she succeed...or will she just create more havoc' Robert Stevenson directs this delightful Disney film that mixes live action and animation splendidly.
