There's plenty of cineaste joy to be had from stills and footage of the artist and his films...including bits from Welles' countless unfinished projects...

Rating: 2/5 --
[Magician] has an inelegant, cobbled-together feel that doesn't do justice to its subject.

Times (UK)
Solid, straightforward but immaculately researched, Chuck Workmans documentary is a fitting tribute to the maverick Welles. If he were alive today, hed surely raise a glass.

Magician certainly makes you want to watch all of Welles's films again, including the ones that we can't, which means it probably accomplishes its goals.

This film makes a valuable and stimulating case for brilliant Welles movies such as Chimes at Midnight and The Trial.

What Workman has assembled is the kind of film Welles would have been happy to part of. It's a unique, warm and fair portrait of a man who was both genius and joke and well aware of it.

I'm sad to report that at a mere 1 hour and 34 minutes Magician is rushed and sometimes choppy, leaping through Welles's bountiful life.
