Equal parts whimsical and bittersweet, Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium is a family-friendly movie that will charm youngsters. Dustin Hoffman stars in the titular role of an eccentric 243-year-old owner of a magical toy store. He doesn't appear to be sick, but he has lived a long and happy life and is content to leave his emporium to his employee Molly Mahoney (Natalie Portman). A former child prodigy who has grown up unsure of herself, she barely knows who she is, much less what she wants to become. Molly is both frightened that her beloved boss is leaving and that she will be left in charge of a store she doesn't know how to run. "Are you dying?" she asks him. Magorium points out, "Light bulbs die, my dear. I am departing." His take on death is both comforting and matter of fact, things younger viewers may find soothing when dealing with mortality. Though the film has drawn comparisons to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, this G-rated venture is less dark, curious and interesting than the former. Still, it offers dazzling visuals and a premise that who you are isn't equivalent with who you think you are. Adult moviegoers may find the premise cloying and repetitive. But seen from a child's eye, Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium is indeed a magical place for a short visit. --Jae-Ha Kim

 Movie-Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium January 6, 2009
K. Stroh (Central NY)
Loved the movie! Awesome family movie! Was disappointed with shipping. The first DVD came to me damaged, and Amazon blamed it on the shipping. There was something else in the package that was not damaged and packed very well. I believe it was damaged before shipping which is a little disappointing. Amazon did get a new one to me by Christmas which was nice.
EXCELLENT!! December 22, 2008

 Not the best December 21, 2008
Mark Jurentkuff (Cape Cod, MA)
I'm usually quite a fan of Dustin Hoffman as well as most kids movies but I found this movie pretty boring and extremely silly even for a kids movie.
Great! December 17, 2008

This is a great family movie. We quite enjoy watching it and have seen it many times. It's fun and colorful and really gets your imagination going!

This disc came to us in a timely manner, and in Used-good condition. We have had no problems with this disc. My husband and son have used it in different DVD players and it plays great. Thank you!
