The Magician

Today I saw The Magician. Its an Australian mockumentary about a hitman. There was nine people in the cinema but I can assure you that it was a much better movie than that. Was apparently made on a budget of $3000, but in the movie the guy says the camera cost 5k... (but by looking at the quality its not likely...).

It was a really funny movie, with a lot of crossed over stories. To clarify, the stories (the hits if you will) don't interconnect or meet or cross paths, its just the movie is edited that the stories run parallel to each other. And best of all it didn't suck.

I'm not sure how much is copied off man bites dog. As I haven't seen it yet. But on first viewing its very original (except maybe the concept...)

I give it 7D out of 10.
