5.0 out of 5 stars Three-piece suits and magic in the tropics, June 12, 2006

This review is from: Penn & Teller - Off the Deep End (DVD)

P&T continue their tradition of doing tricks and revealing how they're done. The trick where they produced a card in an astonishing manner showed you just how much preparation goes into a trick. From the very start, where they show you how something went wrong during one of their tricks, to the end, where they vanish a submarine, this is good P&T.

The part I liked best was seeing just how well-trained a dolphin can be. The only part I didn't like was Aaron Carter singing the Penn & Teller theme song.

(Note: this was *not* an infomercial for the resort. Yes, they shot some tricks there, but they were also on other islands.)

5.0 out of 5 stars Penn & Teller will resort to anything, June 4, 2006

One reviewer called this an "infomercial" for the Atlantis resort. I've got the DVD and, darn, I can't seem to find the bit where Penn & Teller give package rates and show the size of the rooms...

Seriously (and shots of Atlantis notwithstanding), if you enjoy Penn & Teller you'll certainly enjoy seeing them subversively dressed in business suits in a tropical vacation climate, as they bother and bewilder the resort guests. Sometimes you've just got to go a fancy shmancy place like Atlantis, to do that.

3.0 out of 5 stars Cool Tricks but ANNOYING music, March 30, 2009

This review is from: Penn & Teller - Off the Deep End (DVD)

It was a largely underwater magic show. The promotional bits, music, and Penn's voice were annoying.
Some traditional illusions, performed underwater. They did a "pick a card" trick with a surprisingly large number of people at the beach. One of the underwater illusions was timed to Aaron Carter's singing (also annoying, but less so than the commercial break music). One of the coolest bits had Teller straitjacketed and shut in a box, to be lowered into shark infested waters. There was even a trick involving trained dolphins.
The big finish was making a real submarine disappear before a large audience of divers.
If you get this DVD, you should probably fast-forward through the promos, as they are really annoying, particularly the music.
