Mar 29, 2023An appealing but eternally goofy guy who works as a promotional magician (Magic Max) at a car dealership and spends a fair amount of time drinking begins to see life differently when his older brother dies and his brother's 11-year-old son moves in with him (the magician). It's fun and light and funny most of the time, with some dramatic interludes that are heartfelt. Overall it moved along and was carried by the fine performances by everyone in the cast, especially the charismatic leads. It's weakness may be that it's not a kids' movie and not really an adult film, but sort of a hybrid -- is it a family movie? Sort of. There's a pleasant rom-com element that emerges when the magician meets a beautiful woman who works at a gift shop. She's new in town and has a daughter and resists the magicians efforts to date her. Overall, it was enjoyable.
