The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
Magician partners for 30 years, Burt Wonderstone (Steve Carell) and his partner Anton Marvelton (Steve Buscemi) made the Las Vegas strip a magical place to be. But lately Burt and Anton's ticket sales have plummeted right alongside their once-strong partnership, allowing gritty street wizard Steve Gray (Jim Carey) an opportunity to steal their runic thunder. Now, in order for old dogs Burt and Anton to reclaim their rightful status as the best magicians on the strip, they must learn some dazzling new tricks, and patch up their fractured friendship in the process. Olivia Wilde, Alan Arkin, and James Gandolfini co-star
"The movie is pleasant. It's reasonably funny. But the one who gets the real laughs here, the hard laughs, is Carrey, who plays the kind of role he should be playing - a complete lunatic." -- San Francisco Chronicle - Mick LaSalle
"The film has the feel of something afraid to offend, and that's always a bad approach for a lampoon. When roasting a subject, the oven should be turned all the way up but, even at its best, The Incredible Burt Wonderstone never gets the temperature above the level needed to warm up leftovers. And it's unfortunate that the funniest gag is left to the very end. "-- ReelViews -James Berardinelli
