Watch The Incredible Burt Wonderstone For Free

That was an excellent one.

In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Great movie! If you want to be entertained and have a few good laughs, see this movie. The music is also very good,

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

I'll start out by saying that this movie is not really worth watching. It's too bad because of all the great actors and actresses in it but it's just boring and doesn't provide any sort of joy. I'm not sure who wrote the movie but it appeared as though there was very little effort put into it. My kids didn't like it as well so I'm not really sure who the target audience is. Steve Carrell and Steve Buscemi are great actors but this just wasn't meant to be, they look out of place and are not very convincing that they are magicians. The only reason this movie was not an utter failure was because of Jim Carrey. Now this wasn't a Jim Carrey classic performance but it at least injected some comedy into a rather unfunny movie otherwise. I had high hopes seeing all the great actors in this movie but it was truly a dud, one that i will likely never watch again. 5/10.

With Easter coming up,I started searching round for a Comedy which a friend could watch with her family during the holiday season.Searching round on Amazon Uk,I suddenly remembered hearing about a fun-looking Comedy that had surprisingly failed at the box office,which led to me getting ready to meet Burt Wonderstone.The plot:Getting beaten up at school, Burt Wonderstone finds joy in a magic kit that his mum gets him for his birthday.Playing around with his magic tricks,Wonderstone catches the attention of Anton Marvelton,who shares Wonderstone's interest in magic,which leads to Wonderstone & Marvelton soon forming a double act.Decades later:Signed up by Bally's Casino owner Doug Munny to a 10 year contract,Wonderstone & Marvelton slowly find themselves become tired of performing the same old tricks,with Wonderstone also beginning to believe that he is bigger then the team.Standing outside Bally's,Marvelton and Wonderstone are left speechless,when street magician Steve Gray films his latest show outside the building.As Gray's new show airs, the cracks in Wonderstone & Marvelton's act start to appear.View on the film:Whilst the ending fails to sparkle,the screenplay by (deep breath!) Jonathan M. Goldstein/John Francis Daley/Chad Kultgen and Tyler Mitchell keeps the spells flowing,by juggling splashes of physical Comedy with a smooth buddy Comedy charm.For the rivalry between the magicians,the writers smartly give each of them contrasting styles,with Wonderstone's inflated ego making his act largely based on showmanship,whilst Gray takes aim at a grotesque,but mesmerising style of street magic.Wrapped in a pure 80s mullet,Steve Carell gives a wonderful performance as Burt Wonderstone,with Carell superbly showing Wonderstone's joy in magic be pushed away by his ego-driven taste for the ladies,and to also push everyone else out of the limelight.Treated like a human punch bag by Wonderstone, Steve Buscemi gives a great performance as Anton Marvelton,with Buscemi showing Marvelton to be a humble guy,who explodes when Wonderstone finally over steps the mark.Taking on the duo, Jim Carrey gives an explosive performance as Steve Gray,thanks to Carrey jumping straight in to Gray's very physical magic,and also creating an unease over Gray being a less than magical creep,which leads to this film casting a marvellous spell.

Not enough magic can save this movie from bombing at the box office, but I still like it. Directed by Don Scardino, the film tells the story of has-been Las Vegas magician, Burt Wonderstone (Steve Carell) as he attempts to reunite with his former partner Anton Marvelton (Steve Buscemi) to take on dangerous street magician Steve Gray (Jim Carrey) for a prize gig at a new casino. While, the plot seem predictable and simple. The way, the movie tells it, is really long pace and drawn out. It's take forever to get somewhere. The opening sequence in 1982, with the young Burt (Mason Cook) learning magic takes a little too long to establish. It also seem like that was going to be the film. By the time, you see Steve Carrell on screen, you nearly forget that the movie stars him. Steve Carrell is a mixed bag for me. There are moments in the film that makes me, laughs about his performance, and then, there are those moments that really make me cringe, because how annoying and very unlikeable, his character is. They really play it out, Burt's snobby rich irredeemable jackass nature way too long. By the time, Burt start on his redemption journey, some people were already turned off from caring. Most of the supporting cast were pretty good. Jim Carrey as the delightfully-deranged performer Steve Gray is some his best work in years. I haven't saw a really over the top role from Carrey, since the 1990s. He's just insane that it was fun to watch. Very nice to see that from him, here. I love the fact, that he's parodying both, David Blaine and Criss Angel. Alan Arkin as Burt's idol and inspiration, mentor Rance Holloway was a real treat. I'm glad, he had a big part in the film. I'm really disappointed with Olivia Wilde and Steve Buscemi's screen time. They weren't in the film, much, and didn't really play much to help Burt Wonderstone with his redemption journey. Olivia Wilde's character, Jane seem to have nothing, going for her, the movie tease that she had many of good ideas of tricks, but they never use any of them. They mostly use her character as a forced love-interest. The chemistry between them is a bit jarring, due to the age different between Olivia Wilde and Steve Carrell. The friendship with Marvelton is also a bit questionable. Think Siegfried and Roy without the potentially lethal cats. I think the movie was trying to establish, something funny with Wonderstone & Marvelton's friendship, but it seem like the writers kinda abandoned it, because it might had been too offensive or too cheesy. In my opinion, I think the long hinting at 'gay' joke with no punchline is indeed, somewhat funny. The Incredible Burt Wonderstone's humor is a hit and a miss. They are a bit heavy on scatological, self-mutilation and offensive sex humor that might bother certain people, but it doesn't veer completely into over-the-top raunchy. Don't get me wrong, the movie has a lot of inner smart jokes. Sadly, most of them are really not noticeable, due to the over the top, larger than life nature of most of the film. It wasn't that clever abracadabra, when you do see it, but it's nice that it's there. Buried underneath the over-the-top humor are a couple of positive messages about unconditional friendship and whatever you decide to do with your life should come from a sense of joy and passion. I wish the movie had more of that heart. Another problem of the film is the lack of real tricks. The magic trick in the film weren't that impressive or entertaining. It didn't help that the movie play it safe, by adding digital effects over practical. None of the movie spectacular onstage illusions seem unrealistic. I was really hoping for something more than what they delivered. Something similar to 2013's Now You See Me. This movie was a little late at the time for a magic comedy. If the movie was played during the time, where Criss Angel and David Blaine was hot. This movie would had been very popular. I was really disappointed by the lack of magician cameos. It's nice to see, David Copperfield in the film, but the movie could had done, a little more. I don't know, why they couldn't get Penn & Teller, Lance Burton, or the Amazing Johnathan to appear in bit roles. Overall: For a movie about Vegas, it doesn't have the same epic grandeur that it should had. It's a mildly entertaining comedy that needed a little more magic to it.

OK, only part way through flick, but is it supposed to be a comedy? I see two main characters are comedian type actors, but so far haven't seen anything humorous. Possibly my age is a factor, but I have found humor in W.C. fields's work and as far as 'Aqua Teen Hunger Force', so, perhaps this is a life time movie of the week? My review is ; "really?" And, "why".OK, as a bonus, "sad".May we ask our selves why a review has to be ten lines? And, why do we think this movie kind/type of comedy is "funny"'? I have no answer, sorry.
