The Incredible Burt Wonderstone
In a story that looks different as the story tells about the veteran magician in Vegas. The magician wants to revive his career after his partner's withdrawal for a long time and perhaps it will be more exciting when he is dismissed from his job at the casino. It seems to be wrong, where there is a new 'street wizard' who will be different.

Flawed, but its affability is undeniable.

This comedy about a magician who must hit bottom before rising again to the wonder of his beloved craft pulls plenty of sweet moments and a slew of laughs out of a story that might have been thin air.

Refreshingly single-minded in its aim to entertain, Wonderstone has no social agenda, no artistic aspirations, no enduring lessons - other than, perhaps, the universality of lifelong friendship.
March 15, 2013
A generic, fitfully funny mainstream comedy that doesn't nearly get the best from its name-brand players but doesn't qualify as a desecration, either.

...a serious disappointment that squanders its setup and talented cast...

The true comeback story in this fictional comeback story doesn't belong to a character named Burt Wonderstone, but to an actor named Jim Carrey.
June 25, 2013
Don Scardino's The Incredible Burt Wonderstone is a middling and extremely dated comedy that only gets by because of Jim Carrey's over-the-top performance.
