Watch The Illusionist (L'illusionniste) Movie Online Streaming No Downloading. The Illusionist is one of a dying breed of stage entertainers. With emerging rock stars stealing his thunder in the late 1950s, he is forced to accept increasingly obscure assignments in fringe theatres, at garden parties and in bars and cafés. Then, while performing in a village pub off the west coast of Scotland, he encounters Alice, an innocent young girl, who will change his life forever. Watching his performance for the excited villagers who are celebrating the arrival of electricity on their remote island, Alice is awestruck by his show and believes his tricks are real magic. Though they don‟t speak the same language, the two lonely strangers quickly bond through small kindnesses. Fascinated by The Illusionist, Alice stows away on his departing ship and follows him to Edinburgh. There, they quickly fall into a father - daughter relationship, with Alice keeping their home at a boarding house for vaudevillians, while he goes to work in a small local theatre. Enchanted by her enthusiasm for his act, The Illusionist rewards Alice with increasingly lavish gifts he has 'conjured' into existence. Desperate not to disappoint her, he cannot bring himself to reveal that magic does not exist and that he‟s driving himself to ruin working all night jobs to buy her gifts. As The Illusionist grows older, Alice grows up. She falls in love with a young man and is no longer so enchanted by The Illusionist‟s conjuring. She moves on with her life, and The Illusionist no longer has to pretend. Untangled from his own web of deceit, he resumes his life as a much wiser man. -- (C) Sony Pictures Classics.

Review For The Illusionist (L'illusionniste)
The film ends on a note of graceful, heartbreaking beauty that Tati would have admired for its lack of sentimentality. A lot of what precedes that ending, though, is precious and slight and a little too fanciful.Rene Rodriguez-Miami Herald
This is a remarkable movie: lovely, slow-paced and almost silent, rich with pathos and deft comic gestures.
Amy Biancolli-Houston Chronicle
The Illusionistis magical in more ways than one.
Chris Vognar-Dallas Morning News
The story has enough sentimental schmaltz to grease a locomotive.
Colin Covert-Minneapolis Star Tribune
A lovely appreciation of Tati and a loving, bittersweet look at the end of the 1950s, before entertainers like the magician of the title were displaced by rock bands and other more visceral acts.
Bill Goodykoontz-Arizona Republic
A French import that's long on grace notes and wry humor, it eschews flash and opts for heart to great effect.
Tom Long-Detroit News
Hand drawn animation that is as soft and charming as the film itself.
Roger Moore-Movie Nation
Director Sylvain Chomet manages to rouse a lot of smirks and smiles through the small nuance and inferences that were Tati's signature.
Jim Schembri-The Age (Australia)
Whilst they hardly say a word, I felt much sorrow for these two lonely characters and the changing world in which they find themselves.
Matthew Toomey-ABC Radio Brisbane
Funny, sweet, nostalgic and ultimately heartbreaking.
Thomas Caldwell-Cinema Autopsy
Chomet makes good use of incidental showbiz characters, acrobats and ventriloquist in particular. He also includes some spectacular sweeps of urban scapes, revelling in the mastery of his craft
Andrew L. Urban-Urban Cinefile
The exquisite illustrative signature style of Sylvain Chomet leaves a haunting impression in this whimsical tale about an illusionist who delights a young girl with magic
Louise Keller-Urban Cinefile
... A glorious revival of the neglected art of near silent comedy.
Ed Whitfield-The Ooh Tray
It gets a little too submerged in pathos for its own good sometimes, though, and could use a little more humor with its nostalgic tone, [but it's] an expressive and lovely film.
Eric Melin-Scene-Stealers.com
... a delicate and delightful piece of old-fashioned hand-drawn animation where character is in body language and personality in the "performance."
Sean Axmaker-MSN.com
Mostly worth seeing for its elegant "old school" cels. However, the relationship between the elderly magician and the girl who tags along with him is never very moving despite all the intentions of the screenwriter and director.
Louis Proyect-rec.arts.movies.reviews
A beautifully crafted, nevertheless slight animated feature.
John Wirt-Advocate (Baton Rouge, LA)
A remarkably uncomplicated story -- a beautifully uncomplicated story, really -- about the love between daddies and their little girls.
Mike Scott-Times-Picayune
To give Tati his posthumous chance to express a very sad story may have been Chomet's only true course, and, to be honest, the film is beautifully, thoughtfully realized.
Jeffrey Chen-Window to the Movies
The story is rather cold and uninvolving, but the very look of the movie is striking and never dull.
Jim Lane-Sacramento News & Review
So wistful it just about dissolves as you watch it
Fernando F. Croce-CinePassion
Silence has rarely been so telling.
Anders Wotzke-Moviedex
Like Chomet's "The Triplets of Belleville," it's a lovingly crafted animated film that invites the audience to luxuriate in the hand-painted visuals, to chuckle at the small jokes stuffed into the corners of the film.
Rob Thomas-Capital Times (Madison, WI)
...in its antique colored light and the stubborn persistence of its uncomputerized 2-D, [it] evokes a quality of feeling that Toy Story 3 did not ... It's not just that we outgrow our toys ...sometimes the world outgrows us...
Philip Martin-Arkansas Democrat-Gazette
The Illusionist is the next best thing to a new Tati movie.
Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema
Feels transported from a time and place perceived as simpler and more innocent, but which actually was less complex only on the surface.
Duane Dudek-Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
