Review of "The Illusionist"

Beautifully drawn (same style as Belleville Rendez-vous) with charming details. An observational drama of mood (fairly lightweight story)

Review of "Cementary Junction"

Absolutely predictbe rubbish. Virtually no plot initially then a tediously predictible story in which our 3 heros find themselves. A couple of weak laughs, but targets boringly predicatible. Period bits ladled on with a trowel without any real context. The town completely unbelievable. Charachters total cardboard. Not a turkey more a scrawny duck of a movie.
