Very likely to produce nightmares.

It's no dummy!

Good cast can't keep this thriller afloat.

Odd combo, but it's creepy and generally works.

Still creepy story of Hopkins and his psychotic dummy.

Magic has few scary moments and is really a rather maudlin examination of a nervous breakdown.

A very well-crafted suspense-thriller that unfolds with one dramatically tense scene after another. Hopkins is superb.

In adapting his own best-seller, William Goldman has opted for an atmospheric thriller, a mood director Richard Attenborough fleshes out to its fullest.

It makes you feel uncomfortable in your own skin.

Because of Hopkins, because of Ann-Margret (who hardly looks like that Ann-Margret, adeptly proving herself as an occasional dramatic actress), and because of Burgess Meredith as well as Fats the dummy, "Magic" is one of the top-notch films of the 1970s.

Magic is neither eerie nor effective. It is, however, very heavy of hand.

A hammed-up version of the old chestnut about the ventriloquist who is 'taken over' by his dummy, clumsily adapted by William Goldman from his own novel.
