The Magicians Audience Reviews

More Review

CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Bluebell Alcock Ok... Let's be honest. It cannot be the best movie but is quite enjoyable. The movie has the potential to develop a great plot for future movies

Arianna Moses Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

eatin-sushi This show has become one of my favorites! I love the character development and interactions. Well worth watching!

modderkakor I don't think I've ever been this disappointed in what COULD have been a great show. Every line of dialogue, every "turn", every plot development must have been made by one of those websites that randomly generate words.This show should have been cancelled after the pilot.There is SO MUCH story wasted! So much back-story, world-building, and explination are just absent. It really seems that all of this is left out because no one actually knows what's going on, from the writers to the actors. They're just trying to bring as many references into every scene as possible, with a complete lack... no, a complete DISRESPECT for intelligence.They rip off childrens' books and shows like Harry Potter and Gravity Falls with absolute disregard for being painfully obvious, but they gut any worthwhile story and background out of the ripped-off, stolen garbage they are spewing from their scripts. This show is offensively bad, I cannot imagine enjoying this show without a lobotomy. It's truly a crime against nature that anyone on this show is still employed.

jimmy willson The story could be better but sucks and trends to be repetitive, the actors project an attitude like they are irritated or annoyed and just complain 90% of the time, kind of like high school kids, and all the characters are bisexual alcoholics.

joshfanguy First off I'll say I haven't read the books which I think makes me more qualified to give an impartial review of the TV SHOW without all the BS references to how this wasn't like the book or that isn't like that book or whatever. This is a fun show. It has all the elements of fantasy and adventure that anyone who enjoys those types of shows will enjoy. The characters are (for the most part) well developed and the actors are doing a great job with the material. A very good entertaining watch for anyone who enjoys adventure themed shows/movies or magic.
