***Fun, energetic 80’s teen flick about gaining supernatural powers and the repercussions*** A geeky girl in Southern California (Robin Lively) acquires witchcraft powers on her sixteenth birthday and uses them to become popular and win the love of the handsome quarterback with whom she’s infatuated (Dan Gauthier). But will they bring true happiness? Mandy Ingber plays her pal, Polly, while Zelda Rubinstein is on hand as fortuneteller Madame Serena. “Teen Witch” (1989) fills the bill if you’re in the mode for an 80’s coming-of-age movie if you don’t mind the silliness and fantasy elements. It has the drama of “Pretty in Pink” (1986), the fun campiness of “Can’t Buy Me Love” (1987) and the fantastical side of “Teen Wolf” (1985). The obvious inspiration for “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” (1996) and the ensuing series, it’s a kinetic and amusing 80’s teen flick with heart, but it can’t compare to giants like “Fast Times at Ridgemont High” (1982), “Footloose” (1984) or “The Karate Kid” (1984). Gauthier is a taller, low-rent version of Tom Cruise. The film runs 1 hour, 30 minutes and was shot in Glendale & Los Angeles, California. GRADE: B-/C+

A not so magical romantic comedy...

Well, granted when I sat down in 2021 to watch the 1989 romantic comedy "Teen Witch" for the first time, I wasn't really harboring much of any expectations. Why? Well, given the movie's synopsis, then it didn't really seem like a movie with a whole lot of appeal. And also the movie's cover wasn't exactly screaming 'great movie right here'.

But I do believe in giving a movie a fair chance, so of course I opted to sit down and watch "Teen Witch" from writers Robin Menken and Vernon Zimmerman.

And sure, "Teen Witch" from director Dorian Walker does have some appeal, however just not particularly to me, as I wasn't the target audience for a movie such as this; being male and well out of my teenage years. So "Teen Witch" didn't really offer much of any entertainment for me. And the storyline just didn't really bring anything worthwhile to the table for me.

The acting performances in "Teen Witch" were actually not bad, I will say that much. The movie was nicely enough carried by Robyn Lively. But the movie also had the likes of Dan Gauthier and even Zelda Rubinstein on the cast list.

I didn't really grasp or understand the random dance and lip-synching scenes that took place several times throughout the course of the movie. I was a teenager in the 1980s, and I don't remember ever breaking out spontaneously in song or lip-synching.

My rating of this 1989 romantic comedy lands on a less than mediocre four out of ten stars.
