Are there any good films about magic?

[Mr. Pink]

There are plenty of films involving the supernatural but are there any good ones? I'm interested in a movie that treats magic, the mystical, sorcerers etc. in an interesting way, maybe something philosophical, something that really explore the metaphysical and its implications. I know Dr. Strange had a little of that but how "deep" can a superhero movie really be?

I don't really know what I'm looking for but it can't simply be about someone shooting fireballs out of his ass. Any thoughts?

Thanks. I've been hearing good things about Logan but other than Nolan's Batman trilogy and Dr. Strange I've never seen any of the new superhero movies. I think I'll check it out.
