Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast
It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
There are moments in this movie where the great movie it could've been peek out... They're fleeting, here, but they're worth savoring, and they happen often enough to make it worth your while.
Come on, people! This movie was amazing, funny, and sweet. Aly Michalka and Johnny Pacar were amazing in their roles, and Frank Langella....he was excellent at playing an evil, power-hungry, smarmy old guy who wouldn't know the difference between friendship and relationship.Allyson Miller- the perky (almost secretive), sweet, sensitive teen with intelligent eyes and an attitude to match- wants desperately to get into a cool reality TV show as a producer. But first, she has to find a decent magician. At last, when all hope seems lost, she comes across Danny Sinclair, who at first seems to be a flop until an amazing, unexpected trick changes Allyson's mind. The only problem is, Danny doesn't seem to know how he did the trick. When they reach the Magic Mansion (hello! serious Harry Potter vibes to this building), the host (a magician), Max, greets them and seems to have a particular favoritism towards Danny, despite the other two good magicians, Zoey and Brandon. But then, the next day, during part one of the competition, Danny pulls another amazing stunt and Max gives him three out of ten! And yet, Brandon's trick is cool, but anyone who is smart knows Danny caused the trick to happen, seeing as he assisted Brandon. Then there are several more unexplained events, a plot of murder, and the worst of it is, Allyson might find herself caught in the middle of it all. She might wind up choose between her wish to be Danny's friend, and her loyalty to her first job. The dangers are very, very real- if she's friends with Danny, she could get caught in the crossfire, if she stays loyal to her job, she would have no choice but to watch Danny die. Of course, the people who have seen the movie know what she chooses. This movie is awesome, a story of friendship, trust, and magic. And the chemistry between the two main characters is great. If this movie has a sequel, I'll watch it willingly. Hopefully, there will be more romance in a sequel, but I doubt Disney would allow that. But I love this movie so much. I would really like to tape it so I can watch it over and over. So, overall, I would absolutely, totally give this movie a 10, an A+, a 100, because it's an amazing movie and it's a true story of friendship.
I like it, and every time I watch it, it always has it's 'charm.' I love watching it again and again, some movies on Disney gets annoying when played over and over again, but this movie isn't one of them. Every time I watch it, it always has the same suspense. I always panic when I know the male character (Pacar) is about to die or something even though I know he isn't. The acting is great too. Pacar and Michalka acts well when they're doing a serious scene. They're facial expression to the way they talk, it's all good. Great to watch, and watch again. For those of you who hasn't seen it and thinks it's JUST a 'Disney movie,' you're wrong =P Watch it.I give it an eight out of ten. The story is good, but isn't realistic. The acting is good.-Josh
I was surprised how good this movie was. It's not the best movie I've seen but was pretty good. Some of the magic tricks could have been done a little better. Neat effects in some parts though. I would recommend this movie to anyone wondering if they should see it. Especially if they like magic. Almost of the actors gave a great performance. The main plot line is pretty far fetched in that magic is real. One way they could have greatly improved this movie was to have a few more magic tricks. The magic also doesn't have the feel of watching a performer on the street where there is no preparation. I'd say that only about half of the tricks were done right there on camera. The rest involved film tricks and such. It was a pretty good story line. If you've like the other Disney Channel shows, you'll like this one.
Now You See It... This movie was awesome. I have always wanted Disnwey Channel to put out on some kind of fantasy show, and they did a great one. This movie is about a aspiring teen producer, Allyson Miller (Michalka) who is in search for the world's greatest kid magician, Danny Sinclair (Pacar). Allyson hopes that Danny is her first shot at winning a magic contest. During some of Danny's tricks, weird things out of the ordinary appear. It turns out that Danny has magical powers, but can't control them. He then consults Max, the lead magician and a man who also has magical powers. Max is evil and since Danny's magic is too powerful, Max wants to drain it from him and take control. What happens next?
