Movie Review - The Sorcerer's Apprentice

[kriadydragon]

Fun, awesome action, funny and I loved that they went all out with the magic rather than settling for throwing nothing but invisible bits of force around. It wasn't a "blew me away!" type of movie. There were parts that annoyed me, but that could be because I was in a bit of a tetchy mood already, so take that with a grain of salt. Could have used a bit more characterization on Nicholas Cage's part, but that could be because it's Nicholas Cage and I kept waiting for his explosive personality moments, which he's good at, but he was pretty mellow in this movie compared to past characters, and the previews had kind of pushed that he was supposed to be some crazy sorcerer. So I felt his character, though not flat, was somewhat underwhelming. Not that it didn't work, but my expectations had been rather skewed (curse you misleading previews!). Other than that, as I said, fun movie :D
