Practical Magic 2 vs Narnia: The Magician's Nephew

Stoplight verdict, recommended age, content meters, and where to watch — for every title you pick, lined up next to each other.

🎬

MOVIE · 2026 · PG-13

Practical Magic 2 Watch with kid

Youngest OK: 13+
Best ages: 13–17
Parent reviews: 0

The Owens sisters return in a witchy sequel that is warmer than it sounds but still carries PG-13 curse deaths, drinking and innuendo. It is a teen-and-up watch, not a family movie night.

Bottom line: A warm, sisterhood-centered witch sequel that is PG-13 for good reason. Best for ages 13 and up; skip it for tweens and younger kids because of the deaths, occult imagery, innuendo and constant drinking.

MOVIE · 2027

Narnia: The Magician's Nephew Watch with kid

Youngest OK: 8+
Best ages: 8–14
Parent reviews: 0

Greta Gerwig's Netflix adaptation of C.S. Lewis's prequel novel opens in theaters and IMAX on February 12, 2027 and streams on Netflix April 2. It is not yet rated, and the book has dark moments for younger readers.

Bottom line: A prestige fantasy based on a dark-edged creation story, still unrated. Our provisional call is ages 8 and up, with a parent along for younger or sensitive kids, and we will update once a rating and the finished film are available.
