A pleasant surprise and currently one of my favourites.
I've seen The Prestige multiple times now and I could turn it on and watch it right now again without getting bored. It features two rival stage magicians (played by Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale) competing to create the ultimate illusion and to which lengths each of them is willing to go to achieve it. The film starts off strong and just keeps improving all the way until the end. I can honestly say the first time I watched it, the plot twists kept surprising me over and over again.
So if you ever get a chance to watch this masterpiece, you should definitely do so. It's also one of the few films out there featuring magicians and magic tricks so that's a nice bonus.
I'll be watching some Community, a comedy TV series, later tonight I think so expect another blog post later today!

Great movie!! I remember there was also "the illusionist" that came out at a similar time. But i definitely like this one better. Christian bale rocks!
ReplyDeleteI was about to joke that Chris Nolan Directed it because it has Michael Caine in it, and when I checked I was right! He definitely has a thing for Caine.
