3 stars A better-than-average movie...3.5 stars
Saw this over the weekend and thought it was a very solid movie with some good acting. This is the first time I've seen a movie with Jessica Biel...Jesus, is she pretty. I couldn't take my eyes off of her...especially her mouth. Paul Giamatti's acting was particularly noteworthy and I even enjoyed Rufus Sewell (whom I typically find rather unmemorable). Recommended.

5 stars Excellence is the Illusionist.
How a movie like this can be made today is a mystery and a major achievement. Clean family fun. Mystery of the highest quality. Instead of the big boffo ending we have a very well constructed cinematic epiloge. This movie proves that the Oscars mean very little except to the acadamy. Us people want more films like this. So heres your Oscar from me. Congradulations.

5 stars Excellence galore
I failed to see this excellent motion pcture when it was orignally shown in theaters.After seeing it in my mniature lcd dvd player I was baffled by Giamatti's and Norton's performances,the atmosphere,the costumes and the feel of a time gone by.Gone With the Wind,is amateurish in every respect when compared with The Illusionist.Hip,hip,hooray thrice.

5 stars Full of mystery and supense as only Norton could do
This movie is has got to be one of Norton best. It grabs you and holds thoughout the movie as only Norton always does in his movie for the surprise ending. The movie is wonderfully acted and a great suspense full of mystery with a astonishing ending. It also beautifully filmed to keep to the error time. If you enjoy this movie and you are impressed with Norton's acting, you would be impressed with his movie Primal Fear.

Davinci Code DVDs (2006) Widescreen; Dubbed; Special Edition; Subtitled

Illusionist film

$8.35

Dan Brown's best-selling book THE DA VINCI CODE gets adapted for the big screen thanks to director Ron Howard (CINDERELLA MAN), who helms this big budget production. Veteran actor Tom Hanks stars as professor Robert Langdon, whose Parisian lecture tour on feminine symbolism gets disrupted when he's implicated in a murder at the Louvre. Co-starring with Hanks is Audrey Tautou (AMELIE), the French police analyst who comes to Langdon's aid and who may hold the key to some of the mysteries. The cast is fleshed out by Jean Reno as a hangdog French detective who thinks he can trick Langdon into a confession; Paul Bettany as Silas, the murderous monk; Alfred Molina as an evil Catholic cardinal; and Ian McKellen, who steals the movie in the second act as a crotchety old authority on the Holy Grail. During the course of the film, all sorts of riddles, keys, clues, and enigmas are thrown in our hero's path, along with bullets, knives, and devious betrayals. Cinematographer Salvatore ...

British director Christopher Nolan's (BATMAN BEGINS) eclectic resume gains another interesting entry with THE PRESTIGE. The basic plot, which concerns the rivalry between two magicians in early 20th-century London, closely resembles a fellow 2006 movie--Edward Norton's THE ILLUSIONIST--and the two films are sure to be closely compared. In Nolan's film, Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale bring the characters of Robert Angier and Alfred Bordon to life. Robert and Alfred were young magician apprentices together, but became bitter rivals as their careers began to shape their adult lives and a terrible accident claimed the life of Robert's wife. In the subsequent years Robert has become wildly jealous of Alfred's superior talents, so in a last ditch attempt to steal some artistic ground he sends his assistant, Olivia (Scarlett Johansson), to infiltrate his rival's lair and steal the secret to a spectacular trick called "The Transported Man." Nolan's film twists and turns down a number of unexpected avenues as it flits back and forth between ...
