Honestly, I really was NOT interested in seeing the new version of The Sorcerer's Apprentice starring Nicholas Cage. Then my friend Dianne said she had gone to see it and enjoyed it. She said she found it maybe a little slow but that her husband and son really enjoyed it. That set me off looking for a more information about the movie and here are a couple of The Sorcerer's Apprentice reviews that I found.
I had seen a review in our local paper, The Ottawa Citizen, which gave The Sorcerer's Apprentice just 2.5 stars out of 5. Typically, that is low enough for me to dismiss any movie but Dianne's comments had me digging through the newspaper bin for that article in order to read what else it had to say. In short, it said that they found the magic to be missing from this version of The Sorcerer's Apprentice...
From there it was off to The National Post who gave it three stars and said that this movie was downright silly, as a matter of fact they called it one of the silliest summer films in memory, but they went on to say that it was also one of the most satisfying.
All this had me wondering what The Movie Mom had to say. I discovered that she gave The Sorcerer's Apprentice a B+, which is fairly good and that she recommended it for children in the fourth to sixth grade at the youngest because it contains fantasy action violence, mild rude humor and brief language. She also said that this movie had a bit of movie magic which transformed it into a fun fantasy action movie for families. If you are considering seeing this movie, I highly recommend reading her full review which you can find by clicking right here.
Here's the official movie trailer:
I'm intrigued now and it's all your fault, Dianne.
Have you seen The Sorcerer's Apprentice? What did you think of it?
See you
at the movies!
