Twenty-eight years later, the Owens women are back and we're emotional wrecks about it. As fans, we came ready to feel everything, and Practical Magic 2 delivered.

We get into the two deaths that destroyed us (one goodbye literally turns to glitter), the critics-versus-fans split repeating itself all over again, and the curse logic that we need to unpack.

It's messier, lighter and more sentimental than the original, and we still cried buckets. Whether you think it earns its place or dilutes a perfect film, you'll want to argue about it. Practical Magic 2 is in cinemas now.

Listen to Laura's interview with Nicole Kidman about Practical Magic 2 here.
