The Incredible Burt Wonderstone

I laughed a few times at this, but it's nothing starkly memorable. It's a straightforward bromance, structured like so many of the Will Ferrell/Vince Vaughn/Adam Sandler bromances. The premise of the competing magicians is great, but one wonders if all of the magic potential was mined here. Is fun to see Jim Carrey as an over-the-top, one-dimensional nemesis. Efforts to make him the likable everyman stifle his craziness, but here he gets to be his wacky, dickie best. However,  there's something missing from this and I'm not sure what. There is a gooey, schmaltzy center, a romantic side, that may cannibalize the zany potential.
