For anyone with the slightest bit of interest in Aleister Crowley (or prominent "occult" figures in general), this is an essential starting point; very informative if you're not all that familiar with the facts and fictions of his life.
The only complaints I have with it is 1) some irrelevant 'conspiracy theories' during the later part of the film regarding Crowley's bloodline. 2) There is some information that could have been given more attention, and some that had no need for inclusion, as well as slight inaccuracies (such as the narrator referring to the swastika as "the mark of the beast). 3) I don't care too much for the portrayal of Crowley, but, that's just personal preference.
All in all, its a an enjoyable film. Until there is a better one is produced, I'm content with this one. Highly recommended.
