The Sorcerer's Apprentice (English)

Cast: Nicholas Cage, Jay Baruchel, Alfred Molina, Teresa Palmer, Monica Bellucci

Direction: Jon Turtleltaub

Merlin, the most famous wizard of all wizards long before Harry Potter came into being, has a bunch of good and bad followers who have been playing around for almost 1,400 years. This time, the game gets too destructive. And it's left to good wizard Balthazar (Nicholas Cage) to save the world from bad wizard Horvath (Alfred Molina) by finding the new age messiah. Nerdy New York student Dave Butler (Jay Baruchel).

The story isn't original and fills you with a sense of deja vu, even as Nicholas Cage makes you wonder what exactly is his career plan. But then, there's Alfred Molina on the other side that seems to be having so much fun playing the mean wizard. Watching Molina's tries to unleash his fury that changes into dragons and mirrors that capture him in crowd and restroom is really fun.
