The Odyssey vs Practical Magic 2 — Movies compared

🎬

MOVIE · 2026 · R

Youngest OK: 16+
Best ages: 16–17
Parent reviews: 0

Christopher Nolan's nearly three-hour take on Homer's epic is rated R for violence and some language. Common Sense Media says 15+, and the film is built around brutal war scenes, man-eating monsters and a grotesque transformation.

Bottom line: An R-rated epic with graphic war violence, man-eating monsters and grotesque body horror. Common Sense Media says 15+, other guides say 16+, and the MPA requires an adult companion for anyone under 17; younger kids and most middle schoolers should skip it.

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.
