    DIDN'T MEET MY EXPECTATION

    by annabd

    I will say go see it, but definately Nicolas Cage and Alfred Molina were the only best in the movie, the producer should choose a better and more experience actor to play the young guy, maybe like Zac Afron.
    I like it but I will not see it again maybe when it comes out on dvd or not
    I give this movie 3 stars.

    The Sorcerer's Apprentice: Where do I sign up?!

    by iminluv

    This is a very smart, fast, and full good vs. evil movie; the type Jerry Bruckheimer is known for. Jay Baruchel is "Christian Slater" cool; almost to the point you would think they were related. And of course Nicholas Cage works his "actorial" (new word) magic in a very convincing rivalry with a very convincing villain Alfred Molina. Couple this with realistic CGI and NO profanity and The Sorcerer's Apprentice is a mid-summer blockbuster that I will pay to see again with the whole family...the way movies should be!!!

  • Must Go!

    Critics don't know what they are talking about

    by Mischif

    It seems that these days critics can't be happy with a movie unless its "art" or breaks convention.

    Sometimes a good old fashioned story is what you want. Yes this film didn't offer any surprises, but you know what, I don't care. It was fun, it was funny, it was well told.

    64% of reviewers on the web thought this movie wasn't worth seeing. That just tells me that 64% of reviewers are pretentious snobs that can't just sit back and enjoy a light-hearted film.

    Go see this film, if you let yourself, you'll like it.
