It really depends. If you have nostalgia for it, it's probably enjoyable. A lot of people found it kinda boring and were bummed that Halloweentown wasn't properly showcased in it because of the plot. The actors are fine, though!

This always gets me, too! I always feel betrayed on her behalf lol
It's not that I don't like Sara Paxton - she's been in some enjoyable flicks but it was not a believable switch. Even if you were a tiny child with limited cognition at the time. Marnie was the heart of the franchise.
They'd probably use Kimberly if they ever rebooted, though. There are several theories as to why they did it but the cynical answer usually boils down to rising popularity and superficial stuff. Even though everyone kind of hates the last one because of the recasting where she technically replaces not only Kimberly, but a younger Debbie Reynolds.
