If you are interested in it, may I suggest you buy it cheap from a marketplace dealer, watch it, and then buy 'Man bites dog'. I love, love, LOVE the every-man quality and comedy of this movie - the banter between the characters is so funny and real, you forget it's just a movie.

Didnt love it. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. He's ruthless, he is an act of nature that cannot be reckoned with. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. The Magician is not like Mr. Inbetween.

The Magician (2005) This title is currently not available to stream on digital platforms. What follows is a tense and dramatic clash between those who believe in magic and those for whom it is mere slight of hand.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 25, 2014 Now remastered and rereleased by Criterion, and viewed from the longer perspective of Bergman's entire career, this rich broth of a film deserves a more prominent position in the Bergman canon.Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 19, 2014 There's no suspense, no action and no identifiable storyline. I hadn't heard of The Magician until I watched the show Mr. Inbetween (which is a continuation of the character in The Magician). The main actor and character he plays, is in both. Directed by Scott Ryan. Worth watching. This is a documentary style video where Ray interacts with the cameraman who encourages him to take a less violent path (which, to his credit, he tries).

I liked that it filled in some of the backstory of the characters in the tv show, and how they got to where they are in the show.

A consummate exposition of prestidigitation, trickery and downright skullduggery - carried out in an entertaining way. I hope there's a season 3 of Mr. Inbetween.

Both The Magician and Mr. Inbetween are true gems, and I hope to see Scott Ryan act in more movies. I really liked Mr. Inbetween and that's what led me to this movie. I've been watching the show Mr. InBetween, which is based on this movie, when I came across this movie. It also has common sense woven in with tragedy, comedy and vindication.

A mockumentary that follows Ray Shoesmith, a Melbourne hitman who is simultaneously … I don't think, and wondered if I'd appreciate it on its own merits rather than for being a "BERGMAN" film. I adore the Mr. Inbetween series that was based on this movie but this movie isnt half as good as the series! The compassion Ray has helps set this movie apart from others in the genera. The movie was great.

The movie was great to watch how the concept evolved and the twist at the end had me loving it even more. Fancy watching 'The Magician' on your TV or mobile device at home?

The idea may have looked good on paper but doesnt work! The result is a diabolically clever battle of wits that's both frightening and funny. We checked it out because of the TV show “Mr. Hemmed in by a dazzling series of successful movies (Seventh Seal, Wild Strawberries, Winter Light), the Magician came and went in 1958 without much acclaim from moviegoers or critics. Inbetween”, which we LOVE!!

Video availability outside of United States varies. It is a gift for a friend of mine. The opening is depressing enough and I almost turned it off but was soon drawn in by the quality of story telling, acting and film making. i know, however, that it is a damn good movie. I realized then how he loved story telling and film making of course far beyond being 'Bergman' whom I prejudged as being out of reach and out of touch with his audience only because of his persona.

I doubt whether you will have seen anything like this but I am really pleased it exists. A friend reccomended this film to me as id liked chopper and he said it was my type of film, turns out he was right!

As … From now on I'll watch anything Scott Ryan is in and I truly love Mr. InBetween. It's a huge disappointment. Please try againSorry, we failed to record your vote. Feature Film written and directed by Scott Ryan.

Underrated, allegorical, entertaining meditation on the nature of performance.

The Magicians… Max von Sydow stars as Dr. Vogler, a nineteenth-century traveling mesmerist and potion-peddler whose magic … Hwan-Hee suffers personally from his abusive childhood. When a magician arrives in a new town he is quizzed by the local authorities, some of whom are deeply skeptical of the 'magic' on show. Great movie for fans of the Mr. Inbetween series on FX to see the original concept
