The (sexy) Illusionist

So I'm just back from watching The Illusionist w/a bunch of people over in Seymour, and I must say, that was a really cool movie! I wanna watch it again. I mean, the plot twist was a little contrived there at the end, but it was still fun. And plot entirely aside, it was such a pretty movie! And not just because Edward Norton is hot sex on a stick (though that did help). It was just very aesthetically pleasing.

That said, the more I see of her, the more I really just don't like Jessica Biel. She's just not that good an actress. And, I have to admit, every time I saw Paul Giamatti, I thought, "It's the blue guy from Big Fat Liar!" So I really can't say much about his acting skills. The poor man could do a heart-wrenching, Oscar-winning performance in some big, epic drama about something very serious, and I wouldn't notice, because he'll always be Marty Wolf to me. Sorry Paul.

Oh and back to The Illusionist---I really liked the music.

So anyway, that's two thumbs up from this little black duck.
