Love the show – although wasn’t what i really expected. But it’s Nicolas cage – and I do love him – and his character as Master sorcerer is to defend New York city from his arch nemesis Maxim Horvath. The Sorcerer’s Apprentice is a fantasy type movie I would say – since it’s a Walt Disney Pictures. Parts of the story are loosely based on the Sorcerer’s Apprentice segment in Disney’s Fantasia, which in turn is based on the late 1890s symphonic poem.
Nicolas Cage plays Blake the sorcerer in modern-day Manhattan fighting against the forces of evil, in particular his arch-nemesis, Maxim Horvath, while searching for the person who will inherit Merlin’s powers. This turns out to be nerdy Dave Stutler – who looks nothing special nor has any special physique on him – too ordinary in my humble opinion. A physics student in NYU, Balthazar takes him as his protege. A crash course later – Dave brings science and magic together to stop Morgana from raising the dead and destroying the world.
