This movie is about a young orphan who happens to stay at his Uncle's house and his Uncle (played by Jack Black) helps him to be a magician.
In my opinion, there are a few things I really liked. First, I liked the story which is based on a children's book of the same name. I also liked how Jack Black's character and his neighbor interacted. They sounded like an old married couple and that provided comedy.
I give it a 9 because the movie this was directed by Steven Speilberg and it did not disappoint.
