Featured reviews
We struggle to find movies that both our kids and us parents will enjoy. Saw this on Disney+ and watched just for Adem Devine. It's a cute movie and made our kids interested in magic. Jeffrey Tambor is really good. Adam Devine mimics Jack Black's "School of Rock" performance almost exactly. Worth watching though a bit formulaic and predictable.
Ignore the troll reviews. Delightful film that I enjoyed a lot. Heartwarming moments, great cast, loved the writing and directing. I'm not a kid, but it brought back memories of all the great Disney films I enjoyed growing up. Take a chance, drop your cynical outlook and just enjoy a movie for the whole family to watch together-- something that's not so easy to find.
Magic Camp honestly feels like a turn around for 2020 movies. Every one I've seen or attempted to see so far have been awful. There's some amazing things that I loved, and there's plenty of boring scenes. There were moments where it was so heartwarming and genuine.
Adam Devine is terrific at bringing the laughs and fun to the movie. The kids actually did a wonderful job acting as well. One thing that needed some fixing was the character development and emotions. I wanted to see more between the families and Andy and Theo.
I did love how this movie didn't include any new ridiculous stuff like the dance moves or jokes like most kids movies do.
Overall, it's a fun watch but it's not perfect.
Case study in how having access to one of the top studios on the planet means squat when faced with a terrible script that relies too much on stereotypes and cliches, and never gives the cast a chance to shine.
We watched this movie with our kids, who are three and seven. We all really enjoyed the movie and laughed a lot. My seven-year-old was absolutely fascinated with the magic tricks! When he really liked something, he clapped like we were at a live show. It was nice to watch a non-animated, family-friendly, and not too childish movie together. There are adult elements of understanding, but it's not too heavy that the kids lose interest. I recommend this movie to anyone who wants something light, silly, and just entertaining.
