What parents need to know

Parents need to know that this sequel to the popular Disney movie Twitches features plenty of suspense and some brief fantasy violence (fiery spells hurled like weapons, a shadowy image that haunts characters throughout most of the movie, etc.). But none of it is likely to upset tweens. On the message front, a self-absorbed girl experiences personal growth when she learns the value of accepting responsibility and thinking of others. Other than that, aside from frequent references to cell phones and texting among teen girls, there's not much to worry about.

Positive messages: A family is reunited, and good conquers evil through a character's brave actions. Her slightly self-centered twin learns that stepping up to responsibility for others' sake can be personally rewarding.
Violence & scariness: A vague shadowy form follows characters and briefly possesses two of them, but their actions are only mildly affected (a teen is inspired to insist on walking a girl home, for instance). Magical battles feature fiery balls hurled as weapons that knock people down, as well as perilous falls from heights. One character meets his demise by falling down a deep hole. References to a father's death many years ago.
Sexy stuff: Some flirting among teens, and one very brief kiss between adults at the end.
Language: Not applicable.
Consumerism: A few characters are attached to their cell phones and do lots of texting.
Drinking, drugs, & smoking: Not applicable.

What to talk about

Talk to your kids
Families can talk about why stories about magic are so appealing. What would you do with magic powers if you had them? Families can also discuss responsibility and what the characters in the movie learn. What responsibilities have you assumed at home, at school, or as part of a team? How are your responsibilities determined by your various roles?

What's the story?

What's the story?
The made-for-TV Disney movie TWITCHES TOO stars Sister, Sister alums Tia and Tamera Mowry as Alex and Camryn, recently reunited twin sisters who are adjusting to their new identities as princesses of the magical kingdom (and alternate dimension) of Coventry. Picking up where Twitches left off, the sequel finds Alex and Camryn settling into the new reality of their double existences, having recently freed their realm from a dark presence. But it soon becomes apparent that their past actions haven't closed the door on evil in Coventry after all. A menacing, shadowy force begins to haunt the girls, as well as their birth mother, Miranda (Kristen Wilson), and it will take courage and faith from the whole family to set the truth free and rid Coventry of evil once and for all.

Is it any good?

Is it any good?
 
Twitches Too is trademark Disney entertainment, combining a well-scripted storyline with clean, family-friendly content. Once again, the Mowry sisters steal the show; their energy and obvious enjoyment of their roles makes the movie fun to watch. Parents can rest assured that there's nothing to worry about here beyond some mild fantasy violence, which shouldn't bother tween viewers at all, and a few characters' cell-phone addictions.

Puts you in the Halloween spirit!
I always watch this movie around Halloween, it puts you in the scary mode, without being a horror movie, and being totally approprite for older kids, tweens, teens, and adults. I'd really recommend it!

Too scary for my 7.5-year-old
It was too scary for my 7.5-yr-old daughter. The shadowy images that were going after people freaked her out. I left her alone watching it thinking it was fine. She asked to turn it off after 30 minutes.

Definitely recommended!
I loved it just as much as the first! Great role models, great plot, very interesting. As we are very strong Christians we are normally not into all of the magic, however this movie is a different than other magic movies, it is about light defeating darkness. Although the girls are witches they are like the good witch of the north from the wizard of oz, always doing good. The whole family loved it! I would most definitely recommend it!
