"The Sorcerers Apprentice" (2010)
-Nicolas Cage

Plot: IMDB:
Centuries old Master sorcerer Balthazar Blake recruits a seemingly everyday guy in his mission to defend New York City from his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath.

Phantom's Review: Like most of the recent Nic Cage movies, this one was here and gone in a moments flash, so my expectations were very, very low but too my complete surprise, this was actually a very entertaining movie. Obviously made to cash in on the popularity of the "Harry Potter" franchise, it was still a fun film filled with good FX ,a good story, likable characters and good villains. I liked it.

I liked that too. I've been enjoying Cage's movies lately. He seems to have an energy for them now which i haven't seen lately. Sorcerer's Apprentice reminded me of National Treasure. Obviously not in story or anything but his excitement for it.

The Tree of Life (2011)

Well, I'm a big Malick fan, but I must say that I was a little let down by this one. I love the size and scope of the project, but ultimately it felt intermittently stagnant and occasionally cloying. It was just...uneven. I would find myself completely in tune with the film, then suddenly forced out of it. I feel conflicted about it overall, but it feels conflicted with itself, not sure where it wants to go or what it wants to be exactly.
