Two Line Reviews - #145

Movie: The Illusionist (2006)


Plot: A magician gets famous with the Vienna crowd & is as illusive with his tricks as a man can be. When the princess-to-be who happens to be his childhood love is being speculated to have been killed by the prince, he poses questions with his tricks to ascertain the prince was indeed the culprit.

Highlights:
The art work was of High quality giving the period look the film warrants.
Edward Norton,as usual, is illusive with his acting as the illusionist. Th person who plays the chief of police is good too.
The music & the final twist (predictable to an extent,yet good).

Lowlights:
There is no clear explanation on many of the tricks performed.

My Rating: 8.9/10
