Outstandingly good film

Rating: Null/10 (15 November 2006)

This film is about the unscrupulous rivalry between two magicians, who tried to do everything to be better than the other.
I have already heard that it is a very good film before I saw the film. Indeed, the film has not disappointed me. This is the best film I have seen in a long time! First of all, the plot is excellent. A story about magic is in itself intriguing. Coupled with a lot of very unexpected and unimaginable and yet realistic twists, this film leaves you surprised until the very end. There are many chilling moments, and many moments where the viewers are made to fidget in their seat because of immense suspense. When everything was unveiled and demystified in the end, I was in astonishment of the outstanding quality of the film.
The character development is excellent. The viewers can all understand the cause of the rivalry, and we can all relate and sympathise with he characters.
Acting is great. The set designs are visually attractive and nostalgic, and it can easily be seen that a lot of effort has been put into this.
