I must admit that I was not expecting much from The Sorcerer's Apprentice, other than dancing mops (which it had). I was wrong, it was actually a good movie! Far-fetched, as a movie about a sorcerer's apprentice should be.
This movie was clever and funny, I would also imagine highly entertaining to kids as it was to me.
The movie kicks off with a LOT of background info on how Balthazar came to be in the 2010's and the drama that goes with it. Dave, the Jay Baruchel character, is a bit nerdy and without confidence due to an incident from a decade prior. Still aching for the same girl from when he was 10 years old, he is now a physics major in college who seems way beyond the normal college student capacity of learning...good thing since he is the Prime Merlin apprentice (or something like that) and is sort of the new "chosen one". Nicolas Cage is funny and interesting to watch in this film, which is a first in a long time!
Dave, my husband...not the character in the movie...is a big pooper and I kind of want to drop you off at a showing of those crazy assed Twilight flicks and leave you there right now!.
Anyway, this movie is a Diva's thumbs up and thoroughly enjoyed. A great escape into air conditioning for about 2 hours.
