MOVIE REVIEW: The Sorcerer's Apprentice! (LEAVE COMMENTS!!!)

Sorcerer Balthazar Blake (Nicholas Cage) and apprentice of the great Merlin has traveled for over 1000 years looking for the one to bring balance to the force! LOL! No but seriously he is looking for the child that will be chosen by Merlins dragon ring to equal out the good and evil in magic. After the death of Merlin, Baltazars and his partner Veronica(Monica Bellucci) battle the most evil Morgana and trap her inside a Ern-like asian doll. As Balthazar (Damn I hate typing his name!) travels for centuries trapping the most evil sorcerer's a child by the name of Dave Stutler (Jay Baruchel) stumbles into his shop.

A fight starts as Dave releases an apprentice turned evil sorcerer named Horvath (Alfred Molina aka Dr. Octopus). The two do battle and Balthazar traps them in a magic vase for 10 years. As you can imagine this leaves Dave scarred for life and kind of an outcast. Fast forward 10 years later to Dave now in his twenties and a Physics genius just trying to be a regular guy and get that girl that he wants so bad!

The movie continues in a Magic "Karate Kid" kind of fashion and Disney delivers in awesome effects and funny comedy! I enjoyed the plot and comic relief throughtout the story! I think it was predictable (as most action Disney movies) but still greatly entertaining! If youre looking for entertainment and not a serious Oscar worthy action-drama then this is a great recommendation!

I thought the movie was great! I give it a 4 out of 5 Merlin circles!!!

MOVIE REVIEW: HOW TO TRAIN YOUR DRAGON

I saw this movie as well and expected your typically story about a kid that finally come into his own from being an outcast and got so much more entertainment that I ever expected. I must admit I enjoyed this movie as if I were a kid myself! Hiccup the main kid in the movie is played by Jay Burachel (also know as the lead guy from Shes Outta My League) and he is a skinny, accident prone little kid surrounded by strong dangerous dragon battling Vikings. Obviously the outcasted underdog of the story gets lucky in a dragon fight and takes a dangerous dragon right out of the sky! He finds the dragon in a small canyon and cant bring himself to kill the creature that his people are raised to hate so much. You find yourself taken on a sweet, childish, playful journey as you see the dragon and the kid bond. Hiccup and the dragon (now named Toothless) are brought into a bind when Hiccups father and Head Viking has vowed to kill all dragons and finally after years of hunting find the dragon nest. Hiccup is lined up to become a true viking and placed into a dragon slaying course. Through his free time with Toothless he learns that dragons really arent that bad and learns so much from his friend Toothless that he excels in the class without hurting a single dragon! The great plan backfires when he is eventually rewarded for his success in killing a dragon in front of his father and the entire Viking community.

I enjoyed the movie and thought the writing along with great cast including: Craig Ferguson, America Ferrera, Jonah Hill, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Kristen Wiig, and many more will grab you deep into the story and keep you intrigued!

if you have kids or are just an adult looking for fun and not too much heavy dialogue. This is a great film! One of the best Ive seen in a long time for kiddie type movies! Predictable but still feeling entertained.

I give this a "Give me a $10 popcorn and a $5 soda" because you should see this at the movies!!!

All ages/Children- 5 outta 5 stars!
