Movie propaganda

Walt Disney Studios, producer Jerry Bruckheimer and director Jon Turteltaub, the creators of the "National Treasure" franchise, present The sorcerer's apprentice - an innovative and epic comedy adventure about a sorcerer and his hapless apprentice who are swept into the centre of an ancient conflict between good and evil.

Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) is a master sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan trying to defend the city from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath (Alfred Molina). Balthazar can't do it alone, so he recruits Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel), a seemingly average guy who demonstrates hidden potential, as his reluctant protégé. The sorcerer gives his unwilling accomplice a crash course in the art and science of magic, and together, these unlikely partners work to stop the forces of darkness. It'll take all the courage Dave can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes The sorcerer's apprentice.

Theatrical report

There is nothing surprising to this Jon Turteltaub/Jerry Bruckheimer/Nicolas Cage just-in-time-for-the-holidays flick. Nothing except for Nicolas Cage's hair: it's wavy! So, don't bother to strap yourself in because it's not that dangerous or scary a ride, just sit back in your seat and relax as the funny magic men run around blowing things up but not getting hurt. It's a new-millennium Disney film for all ages. Think popcorn.
