Um, no. When one hears "the sorcerer's apprentice," they think Mickey Mouse dressed in a red robe and blue wizard's hat commanding hordes of zombie brooms. Or the music that inspired that scene. And both of those are acceptable. These filmmakers should have known better than to try to tell a half-thought out sorcery story in the days of Harry Potter, especially one as poorly written and visualized as this. Nicolas Cage should probably just retire from acting now and save us all the trouble. Poor Jay Baruchel - I know that he's talented, but this is just sad.
My Netflix rating: 2 stars
