I found the soundtrack for "Practical Magic" to be extremely disappointing. It felt like a mishmash of random songs that had no coherent theme or flow. There were moments where I couldn't even hear the music properly because it was drowned out by unnecessary background noise. Overall, I was left feeling unimpressed and disconnected from the movie due to the lackluster soundtrack.

As a fan of film soundtracks, I was quite disappointed with "Practical Magic" soundtrack. The music lacked originality and failed to make any impact. It felt like a generic collection of songs that could easily be forgotten. The lack of variety and depth made the whole listening experience quite underwhelming. I was expecting more from a movie that had so much potential, but unfortunately, the soundtrack fell short.

- Emily - 2 stars

I was not a fan of the "Practical Magic" soundtrack. While it did feature some well-known songs, they didn't fit well with the overall tone of the movie. The choices felt forced and disjointed, which made it difficult for me to fully immerse myself in the story. Additionally, the volume levels seemed unbalanced, making it hard to even hear some of the songs. Overall, I found the soundtrack to be a missed opportunity to enhance the movie's atmosphere.

- Jason - 1 star

Unfortunately, the soundtrack for "Practical Magic" didn't resonate with me at all. The songs chosen felt random and out of place, making it difficult to connect with the characters or the story. The lack of cohesion and memorable tunes left me feeling uninterested and disconnected. I believe a well-crafted soundtrack can elevate a movie, but in this case, it only served as a distraction.
