Great Magic and Suspense!

This was a wonderful movie filled with unexpected suspenseful scenes, and a particularly fun scene I was happy to see the writer and director brought from the original "Apprentice." It had more serious suspense than I anticipated, which was a pleasant surprise. And it pleased my 'inner child' with that nod to the original, which I had also not been expecting.
I also really enjoyed how the 'geek' combined chemistry with alchemy, because magic and science are one in the same after all! All in all, a great film that I'll see again while it's still in the big screen!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

quirky, at times hilarious, not for everyone

I saw this with my husband. I really enjoyed it, he didn't like it. This is one of those bizarre kinds of movies with enough weirdness to take it out of the category of mainstream run-of-the-mill flicks. The parts I found so hilarious, LOL and not stop laughing for a while hilarious, were a bit on the quirky side. Some really good commentary-type scenes on obscenities and behind-the scenes illegalities that can sometimes take place during wars, and how a few brave soldiers can lose their way. Also, shows some of the disgusting truths about the private war corporations. I would only recommend this to friends I know who like quirky, cult-type movies. I will definitely see this again, because the LOL scenes are SOOO worth it!
Yes, I recommend this movie.

Enjoyable and Funny!

I took my young elementary school-age child to this movie, and we were both roaring with laughter during many scenes! Thoroughly enjoyable, and a movie that everyone can have a good laugh at - from toddlers to great-grandparents!
Yes, I recommend this movie.
