"The Illusionist" Movie Review
Magic and movies don't often mix well, however writer/director Neil Burger and his stellar cast deftly pull off some impressive parlor tricks in "The Illusionist." A crisp, intelligent, dynamic confection, "The Illusionist" is the right blend of romance and mystery, and a true piece of movie magic.
