The Incredible Burt Wonderstone – A PopEntertainment.com Movie Review

The Incredible Burt Wonderstone The Incredible Burt Wonderstone A good magician knows how to make his audience look in one direction when he is performing the trick in the other. This kind of subtle sleight of hand is not exactly in The Incredible Burt Wonderstone‘s bag. However, the movie has an obvious passion for the world of magic and the enthusiasm is contageous, creating a trick that the audience doesn’t totally believe in and doesn’t totally get, but they are willing

Bewitched – The Complete First Season – In Color (A PopEntertainment.com TV on DVD Revie

Bewitched – Season One – In Color Bewitched The Complete First Season – In Color (1964-1965) (Sony-2006) When Bewitched premiered in the fall of 1964, it was so high-concept that during its first few episodes, it needed a narrator to tell us that Samantha was a witch.
