The Witches of Eastwick

The Witches of Eastwick (1987) starring Jack Nicholson, Cher, Susan Sarandon, Michelle Pfeiffer. Three women in a picturesque New England town summon the man of their dreams and -- surprise! -- he turns out to be the Devil (Nicholson, of course). This movie was one of the most sloppily made I have ever seen. The stars are first-class, but the script is a mess. The magic that takes place isn't adequately explained, and scene follows scene in a disconnected, chock-a-block fashion. It really wasn't enjoyable to watch. (Subtitles in English are available, as are closed  captions.) Grade: C
