I went into this show not knowing anything about it, except that it received some poor reviews. They’re definitely warranted, as you’ll be sorry you paid to see this mess. Criss Angel is in the show quite a lot, and his magic and stunts are the best parts. But if you’re expecting Cirque du Soleil’s trademark acrobatic feats or general beauty you’ll be disappointed. The other performers are limited mainly to dancing that resembles Michael Jackson’s ‘Thriller’ video. It has a choppy flow, and is downright boring in some parts. This show will have to be revamped significantly if it wants to make it for just a year, never mind the ten that Criss mentions he’s contracted for. I was riding the elevator at the Mirage when a lady said to me, unprovoked, “Whatever you do, don’t go see the Criss Angel show at the Luxor.” That about says it.

If you feel like throwing away money, do it gambling instead of wasting 2 hours on this mess. At least then you may get a small amount of happiness in winning your bets on occasion.
My major problems with this production:
-Criss Angel REALLY loves himself, and expects you to as well.
-He constantly refers to tricks he did in “Season 2” or “Season 4”, like we know the significance.
-He plays up how dangerous and cool the “Tesla Coil” trick he’s about to do is, and has a video intro with testimonials from doctors and even his mother about how they worry about him performing the trick… then HE NEVER DOES IT.
-He only performs 7 or 8 tricks the whole show, and 5 of them involve him disappearing or reappearing and/or producing doves from handkerchiefs. The others are him getting sawed in half, getting out of a straightjacket and changing costumes quickly behind a video screen. How ‘bout some originality? Oh wait, that’s Penn & Teller that do that.
Aside from Criss himself, the lighting designer insists on blinding the audience by flashing very bright spotlights and strobes directly at them the entire time.
To sum up, Criss Angel Believe sucks.

Went to see the show as Mindfreak fans. Left totally disappointed. Went to the box office and asked for a refund. They gave he tickets to “O” to calm us down. The following night we went to see “The Mentalist” show. It was a much better magic show.

We were extremely dissappointed. The show sucked! If you are expecting mind freak it’s not that. More like revenge of the bunnies with magic tricks anyone can do with good assistants! The best part of the show was the preentertainment. “Christo oh Christo” as shouted by the characters was the highlight. Save your money but even more so your time
