Christopher Nolan delivers a great complex story once again. The movie plays out just like a magic trick and you will feel that you've been had, when the reveal comes.

Yet another outstanding twisty tale from Christopher Nolan. My hat is off to him. The allusions to the illusion are masterfully crafted.

The Prestige is another fantastic, mind blowing film from genius director Christopher Nolan(The Dark Knight, Inception, Memento). The intensely complicated plot separate into three different levels that eventually converge into one whole movie at the end. Which not only makes the film complicated, but insanely wonderful. Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman are wonderful actors who are amazing as two rival magicians with equally great supporting acting by Michael Caine.

Another modern day classic from Christopher Nolan. Visually stunning and brilliantly adapted from the novel of the same name, The Prestige is a film that'll make your head spin.

"The Prestige" was hands-down one of the top 10 movies of 2006. I LOVED Christopher Nolan's exquisite writing and his direction is nothing short of spectacular. Written and directed in a similar manner to "Momento," this movie kept me on the edge of my seat and made me gasp in awe at the ending. One of those films that I can always put on and enjoy.

Surprisingly (although, not so surprisingly given that Christian Bale is in it), a good movie. I thought the ending was really cool. Plus, I'm a sucker for magic, and Scarlett Johansson.

Twisty drama, very well-cast and able to deliver some effective moments; stands up good the first time, but will most likely lose a lot with subsequent rewatches. Final Grade: B

One of the best films i have ever seen! Christopher Nolan delivers yet another masterpiece. Like Nolan's other films, The Prestige is Dark, Beautiful, and Captivating with a plot so deep that i learn something new each time i watch it.

When i started watching this movie I thought it was good. When we got twoard the middle to three fourth of the way through I thought it was really really good. But it was the last fourth that made it great. In that last fourth of the movie you start to figure out all the things that were going on in the movie and all the teists and turns start to show them selves. I was on the edge of my seat for the entire last fifteen to twnety minutes of this show and was to wand up to go to sleep afterwards. I don't feel like I can say much about the movie with out giving it away so I will just say see this as soon as you can!
