Don't have high expectations for this movie and you won't be disappointed. It's not bad but it never really elevates itself. The plot is very simple and the special effects can feel a little bit lame at times. Especially with the way how some of the magic is done, it reminds me of those cheesy low-budget movies, which is disappointing to see here. There are some sections where the humor is good and you laugh at the constant one-liners. Mostly though, it's filled with cliches that you can't help but roll your eyes at. The acting of some of the characters feels half-baked, you feel that they could have done a much better job. The character of Becky as the love interest also feels tacked on, she doesn't have an important role and feels pointless to the plot. There are some great ideas here although the execution is lacking (too many ideas and not enough time to flesh them out), a deeper backstory would have done the plot wonders. Overall, a fairly bland movie but at least it keeps your interest enough to keep watching to the end, just don't hope for an awesome out of this world climax.
