Mindbender

If you're looking for a serious treatment of Uri Geller's life and claimed talents (I'm not sure why you would, but...), this will not be what you're seeking. It's best approached as another of Ken Russell's biopics, like his earlier ones of composers and such--a silly, flamboyant, not very fact-adjacent fantasia on the most superficial aspects of a famous person's life.

The early going here at least has some of the enjoyably cartoonish/surreal imagery of something like "Tommy." But then it gets more visually pedestrian, reflecting the lowered budgetary scale. The script feels like a randomly tossed-together series of disconnected episodes, and the limply semi-spoofy tone (with the director's then-spouse camping mercilessly as Terence Stamp's wife) means the film lands just halfway between sending up its subject and being an earnest inquiry into his phenomenon.

Still, it's one of Russell's last relatively professional productions, so worth a look for fans. It's certainly more watchable than some of his subsequent glorified home movies. The ending is amusingly goofy, and Geller himself appears in an audience-participation coda that supposedly helps you repair a broken watch/clock with sheer mind power.
