Worth to watch

Rating: 8/10 (28 August 2010)

The movie Illusionist has everything that a good movie needs. Brilliant cast, great plot that sucks you in, breathtaking photography and a good director. The story revolves around a Illusionist known as Eisenheim (allways good Edward Norton). His illusions attract prince Leopold (amazing Rufus Sewell)and his fiancé(Jessica Biel) which happens to be Eisenheim's childhood love. The story also includes chief inspector (wonderfull Paul Giamatti) who is a puppet in hands of prince. The story has enough twists and turns that keeps you wondering what is true and what is only a illusion. The movie is set in Vienna which is hauntingly beautiful fits with the story really well. It gives the movie that felling of authenticity. Ir's a shame that the story isn't more complex and that the characters are so black and white.
Verdict:
The Illusionist is great example of a good movie that lacks only a little to become a classic. But overall this is a good movie that deserves your attention.
