Everything you have seen here has been an illusion.

Rating: 8/10 (21 July 2007)

Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti gave what I consider Oscar-worthy performances in this film.
I was mesmerized from the beginning with what I consider an outstanding story by writer and director Neil Burger. This was an incredibly beautiful love story made even more spectacular by the use of illusion to achieve happiness.
Jessica Biel gave what I consider the performance of her career. It is a shame that she lowered herself to appear in I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry this weekend. Hopefully she will give us more performances like this one.
With outstanding cinematography by Dick Pope, and a brilliant score by Phillip Glass, with costumes that dazzled, this is one of my favorite films of last year.
