When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

In turn-of-the-century Vienna, a magician uses his abilities to secure the love of a woman far above his social standing. The Illusionist is one of Edward Norton's most suprising well made films. The movie is packed with lots of terrific plot twists, Edward Norton, Rufus Sewell, Jessica Biel and Paul Giamati are brillaint in their roles. The movie was also released in the same year alongside The Prestige with Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale in other words? 2 Brilliant films about love and magic tricks with amazing cinematography, a terrific cast and an even better set of suprises for the audience to see. Definitely one of Norton's best films in my honest opinion. (10/10)

I was watching The Illusionist expecting something like The Prestige, more unfortunately is much lower, even though different movie where the only thing in common is the magic, The Illusionist is a good cast, Edward Norton as well, and the rest of the well competent cast the direction of Neil Burger is good, the film script has some problems, more is competent, the soundtrack is good, the pace is more or less, the film can be tedious, photography and costumes are good, they have good times, and the last minutes of the film are good also, more the Illusionist sins in several aspects, most have a good time and it worth taking a look. Note 7.1
