Simply magic!!!

Rating: 10/10 (7 January 2007)

Could it have been better? No. Not in my opinion. This film will take you on a magical journey through the behind-the-scenes of magic. Throughout that journey it is secretly building up to something that will make you shiver, make your jaw drop, but most of all make you absolutely love this movie. There's no stage where you find yourself wondering can I continue to sit through this, even at 130 minutes. Every scene, every line, every last word is acted out perfectly. I'm not sure whether it was the brilliant acting or simply the gripping, intriguing storyline itself which made this film so enjoyable throughout and not just when the twist is eventually revealed. Possibly it was both.
But needless to say from my point of view this is an obvious must-see. Some people complain that movies with twist endings are often boring for 95% of the movie, and possibly they're right. But that's what makes it so good that these types of movies are taking a step in the right direction and will hopefully only get better as time goes on. If indeed they do then there are going to be some future movies to look forward to - because this one is a cracker!
