Words wouldn't do justice for how terrible this flick is...

Rating: 1/10 (2 November 2013)

I've been sort of on a movie fast quite some weeks and how unfortunate I broke it with this piece of crap. From the beginning the movie was screaming for its dismal quality with the trailer-like opening but since I rented it I decided to soldier on at the expense of 2 hours of my life. The first thing that struck me was the theatrical acting of the stars. You can probably put up with one or two and tolerate the overly pretentious acting of the minions for the magicians and the cop for a while but when heavy weights like Morgan Freeman and Michael Kane join the crowd with the same bad acting the movie becomes just unbearable. Everything about it; the french cop who fills up for the pretty brainy character, the car chase scenes, etc. so cliché, so cheesy that I can't remember a single scene which deserves a few good words to balance the score. On top of that, the never ending background music of the soundtrack is very distracting and annoying. Just when you think you deserve some peace after sitting through with this typical Hollywood trash your intelligence takes a deadly blow with the stupidest final twist which is beyond description. This is a bad, bad, bad movie you should avoid even if you're offered money to see it.
