Good movie

Rating: 8/10 (15 July 2010)

I'd have given it a 9, but I gave it an 8 because of the lack of the climax. It was a good movie; very good,I'd say. But I can't seem to find out what moment is the peak of the action. It's all too flat; not insipid-but flat.
Now that I've mentioned the only problem this movie has, the good parts:
Interesting mix of history and magic. It successfully recreates the XIX century atmosphere; not like a glance of the past though, but like a glance of another dimension. And this maybe because of the fact that -unlike other magic-based plots- it let's you take a look at the methods they use, it let's you see the magicians world not as an intruder, but as if being one of them.
