Jóvenes y brujas

Despite the movie being as mid-90s as it is, the craft still surprisingly holds up really well today. Of course the main reason being just how well written and relatable our 4 lead characters are. They all come from backgrounds and struggles we all can relate to one way or another. Rather it being broken families, body self-consciousness, or even being bullied for racism. They have incredible chemistry together & can't deny you want to be part of this group. The Witchcraft element is played out very believable & we cheer to see our leads get their happiness. But as we all know sometimes great power can fall in the wrong hands. Cannot think of a better cast from that time period to play these roles. Robin Tunney, a pre-scream Neve Campbell, Rachel True, and of course Fairuza Balk's now iconic performance as the raunchy, sinister, & gorgeous Nancy Downs.

My only issue with the film is a couple of weak moments with character choices. First is the whole love spell storyline with Sarah and this bully named Chris. It doesn't seem clear if she actually really liked him or just wanted to play him for what he did. Also later in the film it doesn't make sense why two of the girls side with Nancy to attack Sarah. They even try to apologize at the end like nearly killing her was just a joke or something.

Despite those flaws the craft is an excellent time. Give it a watch and join the cult weirdo.
