A fun, modern-day adventure follows Dave (Jay Baruchel), just an average college student, or so it appears, until the sorcerer Balthazar Blake (Nicolas Cage) recruits him as his reluctant protégé and gives him a crash course in the art and science of magic.  As he prepares for a battle against the forces of darkness in modern-day Manhattan, Dave finds it is going to take all of the courage he can muster to survive his training, save the city and get the girl as he becomes THE SORCERER’S APPRENTICE.

MY THOUGHTS

This is a fun, action filled adventure with a little bit of comedy here and there.  I love Nicolas Cage and thought that Jay Baruchel did a great job as well!  “The Making of The Sorcerer’s Apprentice” was an interesting piece and definitely added to the DVD.  I am happy to add it to our movie collection!  A big thanks to Walt Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer Films for this DVD Review Opportunity!
