I just saw the preview for this on comingsoon, and to me it looked very good, how do you think it will fare in the boxoffice? Here the story.. A supernatural mystery that combines romance, politics and magic, "The Illusionist" is the latest film from the producers of the Oscar winners "Crash" and "Sideways." The film stars Academy Award nominees Edward Norton and Paul Giamatti as two men pitted against each other in a battle of wits: Norton as mysterious stage magician Eisenheim, and Giamatti as Vienna's shrewd Chief Inspector Uhl, with Jessica Biel sharing the screen as the beautiful Sophie von Teschen. When word of Eisenheim's astounding illusions reaches the powerful and pragmatic Crown Prince Leopold (Rufus Sewell), the ruler attends one of the magician's shows in order to debunk Eisenheim during the performance. But when the Prince's intended, Sophie von Teschen, assists the magician onstage, Eisenheim and Sophie recognize each other from their childhoodsâ€â€and a dormant love affair is rekindled. As the clandestine romance continues, Uhl is charged by Leopold to intensify his efforts to expose Eisenheim, even while the magician gains a devoted and vocal public following. With Uhl doggedly searching for the reasons and the man behind the trickery, Eisenheim prepares to execute his greatest illusion yet. "The Illusionist" is written and directed by Neil Burger, and features top-notch production values, including a haunting score by master contemporary composer Philip Glass. Trailer |

Few problems this movie is having. It's most likely just getting a pretty limited release, the reviews arent helping ( they're okay at best ) and it'll most likely get overshadowed by Presitge. |

Does look interesting, but doesn't look like it'll register at the box-office. |

I dont think it will do all that well - but it does have one of the best actors ever in it - Edward Norton - so i'll go see it. |
