Review: CRISS ANGEL Believe
Can a production from Criss Angel and Cirque du Soleil fall below the sum of their reputations? After seeing the show tonight, I think that "CRISS ANGEL Believe" hardly falls short - the visuals, dancing, sets, music and yes, illusions, are fantastic - it simply misses the mark for reasons that I'll explain.

Opinion: Is Criss Angel Underrated?
Criss Angel continues to produce and present excellent magic in his weekly series on A&E, now in its second season. But why isn’t he better known among the lay public? And why is he not regularly discussed among most magicians? I think that Angel is out there innovating magic and presenting it in a way that is attracting new audiences. He deserves our respect and support.

TV Review: Criss Angel MindFreak: Wine Barrel & Nail Bed
Week two in Criss Angel’s televised series on A&E, he performs a spectacular escape in the vein of Houdini and lies on a bed of nails. I’m either warming up to Criss Angel or his latest shows are noticeably better than his debut last week.

DVD Review: Criss Angel - Mindfreak - The Complete Season One
If you’re a Criss Angel fan, you’ll enjoy watching the entire first season of his Mindfreak shows on DVD. You can once again grimace at those insane feats and marvel at the amazing magic, and the two-DVD set offers some entertaining, but limited, extras.

Review: Criss Angel MINDFREAK "Vanish"
In "Vanish," the second episode in his second season, Angel attempts to vanish a spectator while surrounded by witnesses, once again, in the middle of Fremont Street. It's another first rate episode.

DVD Review: Criss Angel Mindfreak-Halloween Special
Just in time for Halloween, Criss Angel's special from 2005 offers a couple of never-before-seen effects and "uncut" versions of others that ran during MindFreak’s first season.

Review: MINDFREAK - Luxor Light
In a one-hour episode that launches the third season of his MINDFREAK series, Criss Angel levitates himself some 500 feet above ground over the intense vertical light beam that shines atop the Luxor in Las Vegas. Angel floats down from the 26th floor of the Luxor atrium into a crowd. He also rounds out the major effects with various feats and tricks and shows off his new digs at the Luxor.

Review: Criss Angel MINDFREAK "Building Float"
At the start of its second season, CRISS ANGEL MINDFREAK returned with a strong season opener. In "Building Float," Angel attempts to float from the top of one building to another in broad daylight, a feat inspired by the legend of D.D. Home, a Scotsman known for his spiritual levitations and outrageous claims in the early 1800's.

Review: CRISS ANGEL MINDFREAK - Prediction
With excellent ratings in his wake, Criss Angel continues to successfully innovate, explore and present television-based magic in our internet age. More midland material than powerful season opener or closer, his latest MINDFREAK, entitled “Prediction,” which aired on Wednesday, October 12, 2005, offers Angel’s entertaining angle on mentalism.
