A kids movie trying to make a two hour action-adventure out of a Mickey Mouse short? Well, sure, when you put it that way, The Sorcerer's Apprentice sounds like a bad idea. But at least Jerry Bruckheimer produced it, so it has more explosions than the Fantasia segment it's based on.
Seriously though, they did put some thought into making a movie out of this classic, and some of their ideas are pretty good. The movie stars Nicolas Cage as the sorcerer Balthazar, who takes an apprentice (Jay Baruchel) in present day New York. Jon Turteltaub directs and made sure Cage got to play an unpredictable weirdo like he always does.
