a must-see movie

When has Christopher Nolan ever done a bad movie? Never. Now you can add The Prestige to the ‘never’ list. This is absolutely brilliant. It is an excellent piece of storytelling and the twist at the end will leave you shocked and totally unexpected. All the shots are beautifully filmed and shot by Christopher Nolan. The cast of Hugh Jackman, Christian Bale and Michael Cane are superb, delivering their lines with emotional perfection. You believe in these characters when you see them and you believe in the magicians tit for tat tricks in their battle to be the ultimate magician in this period drama. There are twists and turns throughout this whole movie which you have to pay attention to, but the payoff is just fantastic and it will definitely leave you thinking. The only bad point is Scarlett Johansson as her performance was flat although integral to the plot. A must see movie.
