The Witches movie review: Anne Hathaway glams up for striking Roald Dahl fantasy adaptation

• This version of Roald Dahl’s children’s fantasy relocates the story to Alabama where a boy and his grandmother stumble across witches turning children into mice
• Anne Hathaway’s cackling Grand High Witch and Octavia Spencer’s turn as the grandmother are fantastic, though the three mice look a little cartoonish
