The Witches (1990)
The last film made by Lorimar, by the way. And the last one Jim Henson personally worked on. It was my first time watching, so I'm a bit late to the party.
Loved: Angelica Huston; Mai Zetterling, Rowan Atkinson, Jane Horrocks, Brenda Blethyn, cracking SFX (especially Huston's wonderful transformations), a nicely dark atmosphere, the picturesque locations of Norway and Newquay.
Hated: The horrifically pointless Americanisation of the lead character. And for that matter the jarringly abrupt Hollywoodification of the ending.

CALL ME BY YOUR NAME -- resoundingly good. Nicely shot, wonderfully acted (especially by Timothee Chalamet who managed to cinematically convey every thought of his character from the book without effort), that ending monologue and that ending scene where he [highlight to read] cries on cue for several minutes), and with white hot chemistry between the two leads (Hammer and Chalamet). Wonderful.
DISTRICT 9 -- I've been meaning to see this for 8 years, and what a marvelous film it was!

The Witches has to be my favorite Dahl book and I bought the movie a few years back without having seen it before. I completely agree, especially about the ending. I can understand why they did it but was really disappointed nonetheless. The book ending was sad, but wonderful.

I watched several movies this weekend. First, "All Good Things", an underrated thriller with lots of suspense, emotion, and unexpected twists. And Lily Rabe is in it!!
Then I watched "Legally Blonde", which I had been avoiding for years. Not as bad as I expected.
And, since it was the 3 Kings´ Day last Friday, and I love animation, I watched this lovely movie:

The Mountain Between Us
I had high expectations prior to watching this. I hadn't heard of any reviews or anyone else that watched it at the movies but with Kate Winslet and Idris Elba at the helm what could go wrong? After watching the movie I felt flat. Breathtaking scenery however the script left a lot to be desired. Towards the end I was rooting for the dog. And I didn't like the ending at all...too sugar coated for my liking.
