Let me start this review off at the very start --
We purchased our tickets a couple months ago, and thought that the Will Call line would move quickly. Man, were we wrong! We got to the Luxor a good 30 minutes before the show, only to be greeted by a line of well over 200 people. All of which were waiting in the Will Call line!! There was one person working the Will Call line. Unbelievable.
Once we got our tickets (45 minutes later), we had to yet go into ANOTHER line which everyone was now standing in. The line was impressive, it wrapped around the entire casino, almost to the ramps going back up to the Excalibur hotel.
At this point, we had determined this was quite possibly the most un-organized show we had ever seen, and we hadn't even made it into the theater yet.
An hour later (and an hour later than it was supposed to start) we finally start going into the theater.
The seating was nice, the stage layout was pretty neat. The typical Cirq pre-show guys were funny and quite honestly, the best part of the entire show.
The illusions in the show were everything we had seen in previous Mindfreak episodes and there was nothing new or innovative. I couldn't really tell what involvement Cirq had in the show because it wasn't a typical Cirq presentation. Missing were any sort of acrobatics; just people dancing around in bunny costumes.
The entire show felt as if it were thrown together as an idea drawn up on a cocktail napkin from the bar outside. A few of the dancers lost articles of clothing (gloves, scarfs), even Criss Angel goofed up and trying to bounce a baton off the floor; only to have it land flat.
In all, it was the worst show we had ever seen in Vegas. Criss Angel asks the audience at the end, "Do you Believe?" To that question, I say, I do. I believe that I want my money back and reimbursement for the 2 hours we waited to see your lousy show. Save your money and don't bother seeing this show.
If you still want to take your chance, Believe tickets are starting at $59 a ticket.
Seen a show in Las Vegas recently? Tell us what you thought!
