The Carbonaro Effect

When I first saw the show its just looks like any other magic TV show. But the people who have done the negative reviews on this show should research it Before writing a review.

I found out that he finds people who need work and then He does magic tricks on them. They are people who see the trick fail, but they have to pay them money any, then there are people who got fooled by the trick but don't want to be on TV but still get paid, the last people get the biggest sums of money are the people who get tricked and say it's okay to be put on TV.

Some of his tricks are really clever which makes you wonder how he did it, others you notice at once and wonder how people fall for it. I just love seeing how the react to the trick. What people are most skeptical about are the zoom in on the victim. They usually do that so you can't see them make a switch while the person is distracted to keep it a mistake. The only reason I don't give it a 10/10 is because they sometimes but this is rare, they do tricks so obvious that it makes you wonder how people could fall for it. Give it a try you might just like it.

The purpose of this show is to entertain and if you go in with that in mind, you WILL be entertained. To those who complain that it is fake, well DUH, it is. It is fun watching people being flabbergasted in these little vignettes, if you actually are expecting 'real' magic, then just remove the series and move on to something more to your taste.

I DO have one complaint. Some of the shows are duplicates with different titles, but the descriptions are the same, as is the content. Hmm, perhaps it's magic!

This show has some great entertainment value. It is appropriate for all ages and all ages will enjoy it. As some negative reviews suggest, there may be some cutaways, but I'm sure that it is only so the audience sees things happen as the victim saw them so they can be just as amazed. I believe the reactions are real to the same tricks that we see. There may be some editing to enhance certain acts for the audience or cut out parts where the victim may have been distracted so he can make a switch, but they are still tricked into believing what they saw. If you are turned off by a show that does things that you know are not possible, then you probably shouldn't watch any show featuring a magician or illusionist, but if you enjoy a show in which real people have real reactions to impossible things happening before their eyes, then you'll enjoy this show. You can be sure that it took many attempts to fool someone for each trick, but most saw right through it. It's only the few that didn't catch on that made it on the air.

Cameras cut off on spots so you do not see the whole trick. Certain angles are only allowed to be seen so that you do not get the whole view of the room. And please, I do not believe that all the people on the show are that gullible. You can see how he does a lot of it. Do not waste your time watching this.

Camera tricks and editing? Wrong. Michael is not only skilled at some really interesting and fun slight-of-hand that are just hilarious to watch. I never liked magician shows, Chris Angel and others like him just came off as monotone and really boring. But this show is not only incredibly funny but you can tell he put such though into all his work. The negative reviews seem to miss that point completely. I'm really glad I found this show and love watching it with my family. As I need more space, I guess I'll go into the fun fact that I got to meet him once and he's a very sweet guy and that's what I think we need more of instead of disgusting humor that isn't really funny anymore. You can only do so much. This show breaks to clean humor and trickery that has the audience and his "victims" laughing at the end.
