Review:

Wow. The Prestige is now one of my all-time favorite movies. The acting was just incredible. This type of movie is what happens when you have an amazing story with depth to it and get good actors who work well with each other and truly become their characters. I’ve seen The Prestige twice now and would gladly watch it again.

Because the storyline for this movie has so much depth to it, I greatly enjoyed the time-shifting and character voice-overs while reading from each others’ diaries, it split up the action well and kept the movie from getting boring. Do not watch this movie if you are tired, you won’t be able to appreciate the thought that went into it, nor will you be able to keep up (most likely).

“Are you watching closely? Abracadabra.”
