Ya know, Dustin Hoffman makes me smile, no matter what he's in. Typical Hollywood feel good, everything is dandy in the end. Well, it's for the kids and rated "G"- I guess, there it is then. Natlie Portman is cute, of course. Justin Bateman, handsome and fun. The kid was cool and sweet. I'd loved to have seen more "wonder" or answers to "how" these things work. Willy Wonka came to mind as I chose to fill our afternoon with Mr. Magorium; minus the wickedly extroverted inventor teetering on good or mischievous at any given moment. Wonka always had explanations, background or "practical use" for his inventions. Mr. Magorium is "just" lovely, if not a little wacky. Willy Wonka, a little creepy (and I like him that way).
