Much much better than expected...

Rating: 9/10 (26 April 2007)

One of my friends just suddenly ask me to watch this movie.. I had no idea what to expect, but I was totally surprised by the end of the movie.
I see The Illusionist as a new and inventive approach to mystery movies.. most of the mystery movies that I know are of the crime genre, but this is different.
Another good thing about the movie is that the director/writer/producer have done a very good job of keeping the plot simple and uncomplicated.. it's one of those movies in which you can sit back, relax and enjoy... in most other good mystery movies, you need to listen to every dialog, but not here because it is quite straight forward.
In my opinion, definitely worth a watch..
