The Imaginarium of Dr Parnassus

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1054606/

I am giving this 3 out of 5 stars.
This was an interesting ride and I would expect no less from Terry Gilliam.
Its a fantastical tale of an ancient man making a deal with the devil and all that unfolds as the devil comes to collect. It co stars Heath Ledger in one of his final performances, and due to Heath's untimely death Johny Depp, Jude Law and Colin farrel also make appearances. The film is far from perfect, the direction seems rushed and jumpy in places but over all , I engaged in the storyline, and the world being created, so I say its worth a watch for those looking for something a little off beat.
