Disney’s Hexed is releasing later this month, but its premiere took place recently. The critics and journalists have shared their reviews on the social media platform X [formerly Twitter]. The Hailee Steinfeld starrer original animation is also tracking to have a strong opening weekend in North America over the Thanksgiving holiday. Let’s scroll below to see what the critics have to say about the upcoming animation.
It is an original animation, and buzz around it is quite positive. With Wildwood and The Cat in the Hat not so overwhelming a performance, this one has a chance of leaving a solid mark at the box office. The Hawkeye star Hailee Steinfeld lent her voice to the leading character, and the film’s first look was revealed at CinemaCon this year.
Hexed’s early reviews out on X [formerly Twitter]
According to reports, Hexed premiered recently at the El Capitan Theater, and critics have given their opinions of the movie on the social media platform X [formerly Twitter]. Editor-in-Chief for That Hollywood Show, Junior Felix, wrote, “#Hexed is the weird, whimsical, witchy story I never knew I needed. It’s an original, wacky, hysterical, and stunning animated film that all families will love. I need more Henry Winkler and Walter Goggins in animated films, please! They were pitch perfect. What a beautiful and unexpected surprise indeed.”

Senior writer at The Wrap, Drew Taylor wrote, “There is a lovely, unexpected emotional center to #Hexed, embellished by an equally lovely, unexpected art style utilized to heighten the feeling. It’s the mother/daughter story, with shades of “Back to the Future” that grounds the wacky, witchy story (we would die for Beef).”
The Nerds of Color said, “#Hexed is the most magical surprise of the holiday season! A touching, fun, and imaginative adventure sure to make witches and wizards everywhere smile from ear to ear! The emotional beats are strong, as are the performances, especially Foster, Goggins, and Jones!”
Film critic Tessa Smith added, “Hexed is a beautifully animated, super witchy, heartwarming movie! I am such a sucker for a good mother-daughter story & this one got me emotional! Walton Goggins & Henry Winkler are hilarious additions! Some truly fantastic needle drops!!”
Senior Artisans Editor Variety, Jazz Tangcay noted, “#Hexed has cast a spell on me and is pure Disney magic. It’s a celebration of all things Disney. It’s beautifully told with stunning animation. Finally, a story with a mother-daughter dynamic at its heart. Jodie Foster is a wickedly delish disney villain.”
MichaelJLee said, “Hexed is a delightfully witchy adventure with stunning visuals, plenty of magical fun, and a beautiful mother-daughter story at its heart. The hilarious three-eyed Beef Crumchuck steals the film with his Southern drawl.”
Journalist Jace Diehl writes, “#Hexed brings back classic Disney magic—literally with 2D effects and figuratively with pure cinematic whimsy. It sets up story elements you’re familiar with, but by the end, twists them around into something new and unexpected. A bewitching good time!”
