7/16/18. Not that entertaining, and nothing really new. Brown was actually pretty annoying throughout. Why would people pay to watch this?

10min per trick (75 min for 8 tricks)

I've seen all of his shows, but in this one he seemed a bit out of ideas. The tricks were mostly simple and easy to decipher. Most of the time he'll be building up and building up and... building up, just to show a disappointing finale.

Maybe I expected more from him, but I really didn't enjoy anything from this show. It was basically him trying really hard to get everyone in the same state of mind, just to show of some lazy simple street-art trick.

I rate this a 2 / 10 just for his effort / energy.

Derren Brown Being Derren Brown

First let me say you can ignore all of the negative reviews because they're obviously left by people who are too cowardly to come right out and say, "I don't like it when people make me question my faith."

Yes, it's a slow-paced show, but that's because he's taking his time to demonstrate each point he has to make.

Derren's specialty is making you think. If you're not comfortable with that concept, none of his shows are for you.

Derren references the unbroken genetic chain from the people sitting in the audience all the way back to the first single-celled organism "seven billion years ago."

Single-celled organisms didn't evolve until 3.5 billion years ago, and, in fact, the Earth itself didn't form until 4.5 billion years ago.
