Good Points: This movie is filled with positive messages about life and death. Through Mr. Magorium, a blend of Roald Dahl's Willy Wonka and Uncle Albert from Mary Poppins, it is proven that you are never too old to play, even at the age of 243. There is also a hilarious scene with Eric and the "Mutant" playing pretend together.
Bad Points: None.
General comments: In Mr Magorium's Wonder Emporium, Mr. Magorium has decided to "depart" because his last pair of shoes has worn out. So his 114-year-old toy store, which he intends his assistant, Mary Mahoney, to have after his death, throws a temper tantrum. Mahoney also does a series of things, such as having Mr. Magorium dance on bubble wrap to show him the joys of life. Their friend, Eric, on the other hand, has trouble making friends. When he picks Henry, the accountant (or "mutant" as is nicknamed) that Magorium has hired, to make friends with, what does Henry do? Henry declines because he "never stops working." But he does stop eventually and, through his friendship with Eric, fits less and less into the label of a "just guy."
