Best movie ever!

I like movies that are aware of what they are selling... without [any] greater aspirations than to make people laugh and that's it.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

It is an exhilarating, distressing, funny and profound film, with one of the more memorable film scores in years,

This is one of the best biopic documentaries I have seen & seeing a blind man performing world's best card game is even more intruguing.

Ha! Man, go into this knowing nothing! This is a spoiler free review, just because this is the type of film you should go into without any knowledge if you can help it. Because you want to get the biggest bang for your buck. I fold!

The least you can say is that I'm not a big fan of magic. It always bothered me a bit before. Knowing there is a trick but not knowing how they did it is just annoying to me. So I didn't have high hopes before watching this biography. But I have to admit I was deeply impressed. Not really by the magic, because we all know there is a trick. With alot of practice anyone could manage those tricks. But the amazing thing was that Richard Turner is blind. He won't like to read it, but there is no shame of being blind, it's just the way it is. What makes his tricks exceptional is the fact that he does this all being blind. I just find it amazing. And not alone his magic, but everything else he achieved in life. He's a very inspiring person for others. Never give up and one day you will succeed. Big thumbs up to him and his family. The only thing I will never understand is how people with a handicap will continue believe in a God, and still pray to him. I know there is no God, there is proof enough, but it still amazes me that handicapped people continue believing that kind of crap. Anyways, this biography is well done and is certainly worth watching.

I would have given a 10 but I am one of those people that doesn't believe anything is "perfect", blame my business classes.. Nevertheless this movie is amazing, I've never heard of Richard before and I'm a magician myself. I was absolutely blown away by his story and I strongly suggest it, it's an amazing story.
