films like The Sorcerer's Apprentice happen if market analysts [do!] Make cinema magic students have brought finally even in the Harry Potter movies million into the coffee fund, then appeal is made to existing ingredients from any claim of intellectual, creative or even draft and finished the bland, adapted to each age group is instant soup.
A close encounter with Daniel the Wizard
THE SORCERER'S APPRENTICE is very silly, but by far not funny, it is loud but exciting at any minute, add to that the fact that the story from plot holes and illogical is replete. Shall permit you the ultimate bad guy after contact to get away alive - despite plans to call this the end of the world. This story was apparently even the scriptwriters to frivolous and nonsensical, because otherwise it can not explain that the main narrative are often completely out of focus and moves instead of the mandatory 0815-Love Story makes room.
Nicolas Cage as Everyone
may now of say one or the other, that one can overlook a trivial story in a so-called "Guilty Pleasure" certainly, the great problem of the film is that aside from its crappy story and partly underground dialogues nichts zu bieten hat. Nicholas Cage spielt die Rolle des Magiers Balthasar dermassen übertrieben ernst, dass er sich dem schweren Vorwurf des Overactings nicht mehr entziehen kann. Stellenweise wirkt es als führe er seine [bewusst übertriebene] Perfomance aus dem DR. FU-MAN-CHU Trailer des GRINDHOUSE-Projektes fort [nur meint er es dieses mal ernst!]. Auch der Rest des Besetzungsliste wird nach Strich und Faden verheizt: Der sonst so erhabene Alfred Molina [FRIDA, SPIDERMAN 2] wird sich für seinen faden Auftritt ebenso schämen wie Monica Belucci [IRREVERSIBLE, MATRIX 2+3], welche den wohl mit Abstand gelangweilsten Auftritt in diesem Film darbietet.
Finger Weg von den Klassikern, Herr Bruckheimer!
Since helping the clumsy allusions to FANTASIA [or even Goethe ZAUBERLERLING] no further, everything is only a means to an end, none of the makers of the film was apparently a serious interest in the history of Zaubererei or even the Arthurian legend, which the film mercilessly abused. Additionally, there is the pesky, teenie compatible Soundtrack - often the film seems like one strange music video. Really a shame director Jon Turtletaub has shown recently with the legacy of the secret book that mainstream cinema is not stupid, could be a thesis which he scattered but with this listless orgy rolled down effect to the winds.
