      Without an interesting one, an hour and a half of competent filmmaking becomes about an hour and 25 minutes of boredom. ( Read More )
    • Anthony Quinn

      Its a movie that seems to have been lavished with care and performed with gusto, yet its tale of fakery sounds its own knell: theres not a believable moment in it. ( Read More )
    • Peter Bradshaw

      This movie from Gillian Armstrong begins with an ingenious and entertaining idea. ( Read More )
    • Sukhdev Sandhu

      And while less magical than The Prestige, its perfectly charming matine fare. ( Read More )
