MY FAVOURITE MOVIE :THE ILLUSIONIST.



THE ILLUSIONIST(2006)
-NOTHING IS WHAT IT SEEMS

*ing..EDWARD NORTON,PAUL GIAMTTI,JESSICA BEIL,RUFUS SEWELL & OTHERS....

A young boy falls in love with a girl that is way above his social standards along with the art of magic. Although the parents forbid them of seeing each other they cannot be split apart. Until one day they were found together and the boy was sent off. He became a magician and traveled the world. She fell in love with another man, the Crown Prince. The two got engaged but the boy, Eisenheim, finally meets back up with the girl and uses his powers to free her from the royal house in Vienna.


I loved this movie. It's just that simple. I've seen it several times and the charm never wears off. Yes, it ultimately is a 'feel good movie'. It keeps you mesmerized until the very last scene. This film is destined to be a classic. I realize that cynicism can easily get in the way of just enjoying a movie for what it is. This is a magnificent film! Edward Norton and Paul Giametti are terrific and so is the rest of the cast. The cinematography was stunning. The script was superb. The direction was outstanding. I really can't say anything bad about this film. I thoroughly recommend this movie! I could give it no less than a 10.

  1. your review sounds quite interesting.all though all the love stories have in common,i think the magic is going to work.i would like to watch the acting of lead rolw who gets seperates from his girl friend and free her at the end.i hope it would be worth watching.
