When you think of a magic movie there are several movies with magic in them that come to mind such as The Illusionist. A great magic movie with Edward Norton that came out back in 2006. Others to name include The Craft, Merlin, The Witches of Eastwick with a star studded cast. All of these have one thing in common they are hollywood magic movies. The movie called “Magic” was an incredible one involving a person who fails at his first attempt at professional magic because he has no show business personality. He ends up becoming a schizophrenic ventriloquist but it is a great film. These days though it is The Twilight Saga that has everyone on a terror to get to the movie theater. The Twilight series is a huge one to say the least and with only the second of four movies out it is already breaking records.

Another meaningful type of magic movie is considered to be those movies that have some type of magic or sorcery style in them. Movies like Harry Potter, Practical Magic, and The Race To Magic Mountain. These magic movies all have one thing in common, they portray some sort of magical spells in their plot. Harry Potter is the most popular movies franchise in movie making history and its use of magic has the world reading about sorcery and magic tricks whether fictional or not. There have been several movies based on magic and sorcery for kids of all ages and it has become a phenomenon. There are also of course the superpower movies that show us the supernatural such as the Spiderman, Superman and Iron Man movies. These movies defy the laws of nature and anything we perceive as real yet we are fascinated by their fictional display.

You also have of course summer magic movie instructional DVD’s that who you step by step how to perform magic tricks. You can learn everything from magic card tricks, fire magic, magic coin tricks, levitation and master illusions. The art of illusion has always been fascinating with the public. We always have an affection for the mysterious and anything that can disappear and reappear out of thin air is always going to grab out attention. Cities like Las Vegas thrive on magic shows and tricks. Whenever you visit the city of sin you will see billboards everywhere displaying magicians and illusionists magic shows at the various casinos all around the strip.

The biggest craze going right now are the Twilight movies series. They follow a series of books that have taken the world by storm. Now the silver screen has brought them to life. The first movie was a huge success despite its very low budget. The next is Twilight New moon which is slated to break all sorts of records. Now going to the theater is never easy but with these and all others you want to see you can stay in the comfort of your own home and watch movies online for free.

Instructional magic movie dvds are a great way for young potential magicians to get their start in becoming a magician. Cris Angel had to start somewhere and why not get your start by learning from magic movie DVDs and perform for your family and friends. You tend to be more comfortable performing in front of people you know so if you get some confidence and decide you want to really into performing magic tricks then a magician might just be in your future.

A Look At Some Of The Movies With Magic In Them

There are so many movies with magic in them that its hard to know where to start. Magical movies tend to be classified in the kids or fantasy categories and they can provide a lot of fun and a way to escape the norm especially if you are a youngster. There are magic movies for individuals of all ages and many of them can be enjoyable for children, teens and adults. I personally never get tired of the magic movie arena and hopefully you do not either. Here is a brief look at some of the following best movies with magic so eloquently on display.

The first movies that contain magic that come to mind are all of the Harry Potter films. These movies have two distinct worlds, a non magical world and a magical world. The Harry Potter movies have been a mainstay since they were first released though the most frequent movies have a much darker tone to them. If you don’t find some slight deviations from the actual books and just take them as movies then they are quite enjoyable. Its not too bad but as we all know the movie rarely lives up to the hype of a book. However these magic films have far surpassed expectations.

Another great series of movies that contain magic are the Neverending Story movies. While the magical part is considered to be a dream in the first Neverending Story containing the world of Fantastica. This world is being destroyed by the Nothing. The nothing is supposed to represent a lack of imagination in the real world and the young warrior is sent to find a cure. This movie has plenty of magic spells in it and a great break from the norm as far as reality is concerned.

A favorite magical movie of mine that your kids will love as mine did is Bed knobs and Broomsticks from Walt Disney. This movie is about a good witch that takes some orphans to explore an underwater world. They travel on a magical bed. The movie is set around the Second World War when children are being sent out of the cities. Some of the group’s adventures include escaping the Nazis and playing football with some animals. This movie is an excellent blend of animation and magic.

The Chronicles of Narnia films are full of magic and nothing is more magical then the lion Aslan. In this book 4 children discover a magic wardrobe that acts as a passage to the world of Narnia. They must fight the white witch in order to free the creatures that live in Narnia and stop the never ending winter. The chronicles of Narnia has something for everyone as there is plenty of magic, comedy and battles. There are two films and a third on the way in this trilogy of magical wonder and enjoyment.

The Lord of the Rings trilogy is full of magic though it may not be considered magic in the traditional sense of the word. Gandalf and Saruman are wizards and the elves also contain a type of magic as they can never die. There are ghost, goblins, orcs, hobbits, dwarves, elves and more in the Lord of the Rings. It really is an amalgamation of all fantasy creatures you could ever find in a set of movies. It should be noted that the Lord of the rings movies may not be suitable for children.

For those great kids movies that feature magic you have the Sword in the Stone which contains the wizard Merlin. There is a great duel between Merlin and a witch. Mary poppins uses plenty of magic in her adventures with the children. Ella Enchanted has fairies and curses that can create a great story and Enchanted has plenty of magic that manages to escape into the real world.
