THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE (Theatrical Release USA 2010)

Ben Meyers’ rating: 3.7|5.0 Starsììì

The Sorcerer’s Apprentice does not entertain due to a lack of an intricate storyline. It does not engage the imagination even though the acting and portrayal of story are average. There is not one thing that makes the story unique, fresh, and new…nothing makes it stand out above other stories.

Buy a ticket? Yes? No? Maybe?

Maybe. The film limits itself for an older child audience, but few adults would enjoy this movie.
