   Is Harry Houdini a good movie?

   • When Guy Pearce's Houdini comes into town to prove or disprove the existence of the paranormal, they come into contact. It is both a sad and a hopeful movie. A little too "psychic" for me and too little about the true nature of Harry Houdini except his fascination for his dead mother.

   Houdini's mission to debunk fake spiritualists is hijacked by this wholly fraudulent love story. There's not a moment in the film that feels honest and uncontrived.
