Critic Reviews of "The Illusionist"
NPR.orgOctober 18, 2008The line between truth and illusion is blurred so persuasively that for a moment or two, you may even believe that a romantic costume drama could stand up to all those special-effects blockbusters in the dog days of summer.
Time OutFebruary 28, 2007With exquisite performances (Giamatti's, in particular), it leaves you thrillingly hovering, happily uncommitted to any one interpretation.
The New RepublicOctober 26, 2006What (director Neil) Burger and his colleagues have done is to entrance us with a richly acted, beautifully produced story.
Philadelphia InquirerSeptember 01, 2006Conjures up a world of mystery, romance and suspense.
Denver Rocky Mountain NewsSeptember 01, 2006The story may be less than credible, but the performances are mostly good, and Giamatti makes an especially strong showing.
Tribune News ServiceJanuary 16, 2013Dark, dazzling turns by Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti, and Jessica Biel makes it achingly romantic.
ComingSoon.netMarch 27, 2011If nothing else, The Illusionist is worth watching solely for Giamatti's Oscar-caliber performance.
Movie MetropolisJuly 24, 2010A wonderful period film first and secondarily an interesting mystery-romance that keeps you guessing about the big questions until late in the narrative.
Boston PhoenixJuly 07, 2010Norton and Paul Giamatti perform wonders, but writer/director Neil Burger ruins the magic, exposing all of his story's tricks by the end.
