This film started out very well but veered into over dramatics in the courtroom scenes. Wells is his usual over the top as a hypnotist and fake who controls people with just a glance. However pay attention to the design of the shots which are clearly Wells. Also, the details of the rooms and facades are very spectacular. Maybe they were real places. Wells had to duck many times while crossing rooms and they seem to have been built for smaller people or to give the illusion that he is taller than he is.
