'Red Lights' (2012) – Rodrigo Cortés.

While writer/director Rodrigo Cortés 'Red Lights' is a greatly flawed supernaturally-inclined, spoon-bendingly bizarre thriller, that for me at least, has much to recommend it to fellow mystery-loving, ectoplasmically-inclined fantasy fans, as just one of the entertaining film's myriad diverting merits is the deliciously hammy performance by an audaciously unfiltered Robert De Niro as the grandstanding, visually impaired, scenery scoffing master illusionist Simon Silver, his frequently distracting, unwieldy mannerisms being consummately balanced by more nuanced work by Sigourney Weaver as hard-nosed, hoax-bunking paranormal investigator Dr. Margaret Matheson, with her loyal, stalwart assistant Tom Buckley being played with palpable bright-eyed pathos by the luminously ingenuous Irish actor Cillian Murphy. While the occasionally muted 'Red Lights' doesn't quite bedazzle the viewer as ardently as it might have done, I sincerely feel that it deserves a second unbiased look, since the psychologically dense plot is never less than engaging and the hyperbolic climax is an appropriately overwrought spectacle of vainglorious Las Vegas excess!
