| SYNOPSIS __________
Plot:
Welcome to Mr. Magorium's Wonder Emporium, the strangest,
most fantastic, most wonderful toy store in the world. It's
a tantalizing toy haven in which everything inside literally
comes to life - including the store itself - and where marvels
of every imaginable, possible kind, and beyond, never cease
... that is, until now.
When Mr. Magorium, the store's extraordinary 243 year-old
proprietor (Dustin Hoffman), announces that he will at long
last hand over the reigns of his wonder-expanding store to
his unconfident young manager, Molly Mahoney (Natalie Portman),
the store decides to throw an unusual tantrum.
As a skeptical accountant named Henry (Jason Bateman) comes
in to audit the Legos® and Lincoln Logs®, not to mention
the Whodathoughts and Whatchamacallits, the once sparkling,
color-saturated Emporium is suddenly embattled by mysterious
changes.
The playful toys are all still there, but they've turned
gray and quiet - and only Mahoney and Henry can revive them
if, with the help of a superdexterous 9 year-old (Zach Mills),
they can find the source of magic inside themselves.
