SRC 114: The Incredible Burt Wonderstone (2013)


When your supposed comedy about magicians dazzles you with barely any comedy or decent magic tricks, you know you've vanished into the Restroom...

THE INCREDIBLE BURT WONDERSTONE deals with a self absorbed illusionist (spray tanned Steve Carell) whose life spirals out of control when he breaks up with his lifelong partner (Steve Buscemi).  Along for the descent into unfunny madness are Olivia Wilde as their assistant turned magician, and Jim Carrey earning a quick paycheck as a whacked out street magician.



This disappearing act mess is available for streaming on Amazon, VUDU, and YouTube, but as always, you're better off leaving this cinematic coin trick to us and finding some other magic film to saw yourself in half with.


Here's the side by side pics of young Steve Buscemi and Honor Knight that were mentioned on the show.  You be the judge.


Special guests this time out are Dustin and Jessica Kramer, hosts of the Popcorn Poops podcast, who have previously assisted with the flushing of SON IN LAW (SRC 103).

Sit back now and give a listen as Griffin, Crest, & Knight flush you down the Cinematic Bowl with, THE INCREDIBLE BURT WONDERSTONE...
