Go See Jabbawockeez Instead Review by: SeeJabbawockeez, Jun 7, 2013 |
Was very disappointed with this (show?). Can't believe a big part of the show was watching video that have already seen on TV a thousand times. Chris did a couple illusions that were good and that was it. He wore a pair of worn out jeans and a T shirt. No costumes or role playing of any kind, spent most of his time talking about his self and how great he is. They were very aggressive towards people with cell phones and cameras, until the last 3 ... read more minutes, Chris took his shirt off and said OK if you want to take pictures with your phone now you can. What an ego this guy has. If you want to truly be entertained at the Luxor go see Jabbawockeez, they were awesome and put on an incredible show, felt like I should have paid more for their show. |

Nice to know I'm not the only one who thought this show su... Review by: The King, Sep 19, 2012 |
My fiance and I had seen every Cirque show in Vegas as well as a few elsewhere so naturally we went to see this one. It was by far the worst show I have seen in Vegas in the 12 years I have been going there( 1 trip a year). To make matters worse, we were sitting next to one of the hundreds of young girls who spent the entire show screaming every time Criss moved or talked. I now can imagine what a Bieber concert is like. |

Save your money - do not go Review by: Iris, Jul 18, 2012 |
Poor show - not worth the ticket price. Cirque du Soleil has absolutely no presence in the show - it is a rip off that the name is even used. While one of the illusions was done well, it wasn't worth the remainder of the mediocre performance. THe best part of the show was Chris Angel's sidekick. |

Total Waste of Money & Time Review by: RossNJen, Mar 21, 2012 |
Complete waste of time and money. It was the most expensive show we saw while in Vegas, which included 2 other Cirque shows. Cirque has NO part in this show. So don't expect there to be acrobatics, etc... Side-kick actor was the best, at least he was funny. |

who? Review by: Dee, May 29, 2011 |
Enjoyable show, not really a big fan of magic as they tend to be older guys doing the same thing over & over again but this was certainly unique. The visual effects were unusaual & exciting keeping you engaged. |

Go see if you get a chance

Bad Show Review by: Dabner, Feb 21, 2011 |
I was in town on business and had an evening open, so I got tickets that day for Criss Angel... what a waste of time! This was the definition of a bad show! (I knew I should have gone to The Lion King!) |

As Entertaining as Watching Water Boil Review by: Disappointed, Jan 12, 2011 |
My wife, daughter and I saw this show not long after it first opened in Las Vegas (October 2008). We were celebrating my daughter's 21st birthday and she was a big fan of Criss Angel. The show was to be a surprise because we had seen the Beatles Love show just the night before. After reading other more recent reviews, I can see that the show has not improved. I agree with everyone else that describes it as a boring rip-off. The most ... read more entertaining moment came after the show was over. As the audience was exiting the theater, someone shouted out "best show I ever slept through!". My biggest regret is that I waited to write this review until now. I apologize to everyone who saw it. I should have warned you to save your money. |

DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY Review by: Dave, Oct 7, 2010 |
My girlfriend and I saw the show because she was a huge fan of Chris Angel. The tickets and two tshirts cost over $300. PLEASE do not waste your money. This was the worst show I have ever attended, EVER. We knew we were in trouble when the first part of the show was devoted to telling us just how great Chris Angel is !!!!!!!!!!! NEVER AGAIN THANK YOU |

Magic Misrepresented- Don't Go! Review by: ER Chris, Aug 31, 2010 |
Don't Go! Just returned from Vegas and saw 6 shows. Criss Angel was the biggest rip-off. I was VERY disappointed. The caliber of the magic tricks looked like he was still performing in high school. I saw a magician on a Carnival cruise in January and he blew Criss out of the water with his performance. Even the magician in "Vegas The Show" was better and he was only adequate. From seeing other Criss Angel shows on TV, I expected much ... read more more variety, complexity, ingenuity and MORE MAGIC! There was too much fluff and nonsense and there was hardly any Cirque features so this was a double "bait and switch". |

very disappointing magic show Review by: fed up, Sep 17, 2009 |
We were unlucky enough to go and see this complete load of rubbish 10th September 09, not only was it very boring it was pointless and stupid, with very little magic at all, the only good bits were the first 10 mins and that was video of previous shows. Can I get my money back, please... |

Don't Believe a thing. Review by: Alien, Aug 24, 2009 |
This is the worst show I have ever seen in my life. Badly designed, badly presented and totally disjointed. You could see the wires being attatched and released during leitations and the performers inside certain illusions. When a performer asks for applause after a poor trick and then states "I guess you aren't as drunk as the 10p.m. crowd usually are" it says everything. I asked for my money back. |
