Here, magic is something that happens with you, not to you. And "Magic for Humans" is a more rewarding experience because of it. Go to Full Review

08/08/2020 The magic tricks are great - no doubt. The magic show is something is expected to bring fun or surprise, but it seems that Justin Willman likes to embarrass people and this negative attitude really spoils the impression. And of course the last part of the season "Love" should have a warning that it is not appropriate for kids. It would be embarrassing for parents watching this part of the show with their children. See more 05/31/2020 Cute show, kind of funny, then it ended. One episode it turned into the sex theme show; the host makes references to anal sex; another time he interviews two guys, one dressed up as a pony, and discuss ponying sex; another episode he discusses masturbation. I stopped watching the show. I don't know how these topics are acceptable for a TY-14 rating. See more Michael W @mawilps 05/25/2020 This reality series on Netflix is very good. Justin Willman is an awesome magician and his tricks are amazing. He knows how to entertain people and put on a show. He's like Michael Carbanaro and David Blaine put together. He does some incredible tricks and I believe he even helps a guy get a date with a woman at a bar by switching arms and making it look like he's doing magic when it's Justin doing the magic, which was pretty funny. If you're a Netflix member, you should check this series out. It's worth seeing. See more k r @runtheplacered 04/22/2020 It was a fine, family friendly show that we were all watching, until they randomly decided to talk about masturbating. I don't get why, it wasn't even a funny joke but we'll never watch this again. Also the tricks are obviously done with digital fakery and camera edits. But I didn't mind that part. But it's worth pointing out, you're not going to see a whole lot of actual magic that you couldn't see watching a movie. See more 12/03/2018 Excellent. Great to see something fresh and new in magic. See more 11/06/2018 Shameful filthy ending to a fun family show. My kids and I enjoyed the first episodes of this series. Lots of fun magic with adults, kids and Susans. Unfortunately the final episode (6) went into anal sex, And people acting like animals for sexual experimentation. What a dispicable way to conclude a season of what was othersiwe a great family show. See more Read all reviews
