The Illusionist

A friend went and she told me to wait to rent it. 😬

I thought Paul Giamatti and Rufus Sewell were good, but the plot wasn't as interesting as it could have been and Ed Norton didn't really pull off the character. Don't get me wrong, I think Ed's a great actor, but I don't think he's the kind of guy who hits every single role out of the park.

yea Ed Norton wasn't as great as he usually was...

every time they did close ups of him (because of the gotee) it would remind me of him in American History X

the ending was a little predictable but still good

yeah I want to see this movie.

I just saw this movie.Pretty good movie.I liked it.

I like the look of this. ✅

I heard that it's supposed to be one of the most impressive films of the year. I missed it at my local theater, so I will sadly have to wait. I know the people who own the theater, so I'll see if I can have them put it on next week.

screw that usual suspects montage ending. and double screw the director's boring, this-is-my-pet-project-so-i'll-put-loving-detail-into-every-worthless-thing style. it wasn't god-awful though. there WERE a couple of annoying continuity goofs, like the locket switching from cord to chain to cord.

The cast is great. I'd see it.
