Who has never dreamed, when he was little, to live in a toy store? I at least yes. Moreover, as I grew older I wondered what the owner of the toy store my parents used to take me to be like. I imagined him as the most wonderful and happy person in the world because, living in a store where there were only toys, how was he going to be?
My surprise came there in 2007, when I went to the movies and there was in front of me. I was the person who had imagined that I could run a toy store where all the children in the world would find what they most wanted. And even had a name. That day, I returned to the store of my childhood and I could enjoy those good times.
Therefore, today I want to talk about one of the 25 best movies to watch as a family: "Mr. Magorium and his magic shop", a film directed by Zach Helm and starring the great Dustin Hoffman, Natalie Portman, Jason Bateman and the boy Zach Mills.
What counts
"Mr. Magorium and his magic shop" ("Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium") tells us the story of Mr. Magorium, the charming (although somewhat eccentric) owner of a toy store, who decides to retire to the tender after taking more than 200 in charge. His successor will be the young woman in charge of the store: Molly.
But to be able to carry out the transfer, it is necessary to have the help of Henry, a serious and responsible accountant who does not believe that the store itself can be so "special". This causes Henry not to like the store, and will rebel before him. Little by little, the store is losing what makes it so special: its vitality and its magic, and next to it, the illusion of the children who visit it.
But Molly will not be alone in this adventure to return her magic to Mr. Magorium's toy store since she will have the help of Eric, a nine-year-old boy who loves to stop by the store and help Mr. Magorium and Molly To take the store.
We like it because ...
"Mr. Magorium and his magic shop" is a movie that can make little ones dream from the age of five. Mr. Magorium seems to me to be a character who, despite being over 200 years old, is still a child and that's why those who come to his shop enjoy as much as he does.
Although I have said that after five years the film can be enjoyed more, perhaps because they understand the complete plot of the film, its color, the magic that it transmits and, especially, being able to see the toys come alive , will also make the smallest do not look away from the screen.
And, in the end, we all like to believe in magic and feel like children again when we enter a store of this type and we are surrounded by each and every one of those little toys.
Values transmitted
Mr. Magorium, Molly, Henry and even the same toy store with all its peculiar inhabitants, show us how friendship and, especially, looking for the magic that we all have within each of us are the values that we can find in this family movie
Conclusion
"Mr. Magorium and his magic shop" It is one of those movies that make adults enjoy the magic and innocence that we felt as children, and now feel our children, when we entered a store where you look where you look, you could only think about what we were going to ask The Three Kings or for our birthday. A movie that can rob us of more than one smile.
