The Illusionist [MOVIE] - EvBoard

forgiveme11 · 10-13-2006, 11:34 PM

Anyone see this yet? It's not too popular, but I saw it tonight and I thought it was really good. It's about magic and illusion, and of course, love.

There wasn't too much dialogue, and it moved kinda slow at times, but the overall movie was good. The ending pretty much made the whole movie.

Edward Norton did an excellent job as Eisenheim, and Jessica Biel (strange choice by the way) and Paul Giamatti did well on their supporting roles.

Overall, I would recommend it. Now I've got to see The Prestige and compare the two similar movies.

I saw this movie on Tuesday. I hadn't seen any trailers for it, and had no idea what it was about, so it was quite a pleasant surprise.

Although, I'd already figured out how it was going to end ages before it did. It was totally worth it though.

Same here. I saw it with my friend a couple weeks ago and hadn't heard of it before. I really loved it. I'll probably buy it when it comes out on dvd.
