Excellent!

User review rating: 0 November 04, 2006

The plot jumps quickly making the viewer think on the fly about what is going on. While it can be predictable, one has to be able to follow all of the rapid changes. It left me confused and bewildered, and that`s a very good thing. It was worth seeing in the theater and I`m looking forward to watching it on DVD. If you want to go to the movies and have no idea what to see, this is the movie. A potential award winner.

Amazing twists! Keeps you thinking all the way through and afterward. It was a beautiful film with great acting...definitely worth my ten bucks. And for those who thought it was confusing, that`s what so great about it.

Truly magical!

It was AWESOME!!!

Big let down. Nolan is losing his touch. I found the ending of the film very predictable and extremely disappointing. Acting was decent, but the plot lacked substance. It had some promise of originality, but quickly lost it. Also, film was confusing as it jumped from past to present - very annoying and confusing at times. Best part of the movie is David Bowie as Nikola Tesla. Nolan infused actual elements of history as Edison and his bullies attempt to steal Tesla`s research and ideas on electricity and electrical currents.

This movie has a unique story line but the commercial was better than the actual movie.

Excellent movie!!

Amazing movie. It was totally worth watching it at the theater (not many movies out there are). A bit confusing at times, but the concept and acting were superb and more than made up for it. Highly recommended.

The Prestige is wonderfully engrossing, darkly mysterious and entertaining from start to finish!

User review rating: 0 October 30, 2006

This is a great movie with a plot that keeps you quessing. Are they tricks, illusions or is science fiction at work. It is hard to write the review without mention some aspect of the the plots. I will stop.

User review rating: 0 October 30, 2006

Very very good. I have to admit I found it a bit confusing a bit but then everything all comes together during the end.It was amazing. The ending was whoa... 5/5

User review rating: 0 October 30, 2006

Nolan should stop making movies - they are unnecessarily confusing and leave the viewer not able to follow them well (for no good reason). If you saw Memento and thought it was a great idea but poorly executed, or if you saw Batman Begins and thought it was paced like a weird music video, this film will make you feel much the same. Story got a 5/5 (incredible!) but the execution of the film gets 1/5 (what a mess!). People around us in the theatre were very confused and mad looking when it was over.

User review rating: 0 October 30, 2006

I felt angry watching this movie because it jumps around unnecessarily which makes it confusing. HOWEVER, if you get past that, you will find this movie to be amazing and brilliant. If you`re a person who always needs movies explained to them, don`t watch this - but if you`re a person who always explains movies to other people, WATCH THIS MOVIE. Probably also good if you look up the history of electricity and Nikola Tesla a little bit (if you don`t already know) before you go. It could have been made a lot more linear and less confusing but the story is brilliant.

The Prestige kept me guessing and just when I thought I had it all figured out there were more twists.. so, watch carefully

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

Amazing! Absolutely incredible. One of the best movies this year! I love all of Christopher Nolan`s movies, and this is no exception. Go see it!!!

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

Bloody Brilliant!

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

Very interesting movie, but surpisingly predictable at times. The only real cliff-hanger is how the end will truly happen. Without giving anything away, it`s tough to say more - but I thought that the end had multiple possibilities. I would be very interested in seeing if the DVD release would have such....

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

Great movie.....very interesting....and a good thriller

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

It was a great movie that always kept you guessing and wondering what would happen next.

movie was soooo boring actually had to stop myself from sleeping

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

Wow I haven`t liked a movie this much since Batman Begin! Chris Nolan is a movie making genius when paired with Caine and Bale! The movie`s secret was solved for me in about 45 minutes, but it`s way of story telling made up for all of it! 5 STARS!

User review rating: 0 October 29, 2006

This film was beyond awesome... perfect in every sense possible... amazing cast, breath-taking cinematography... great plot development... captivating story, and so forth. The film keeps you in its realm the entire time, not giving any cues as to what the ending might be... what the next dvelopment in the course of time might be... twists and turns at every end. A great combination of science and magic. TWO WAY BIG THUMBS UP!!!

User review rating: 0 October 28, 2006

... A mystical and magical twist of all human-kind. Absolutely worth going to see over and over again. Marvellously creative and extremely well scripted. Along with passion & deceite; a truly mind-bounding tale of what turns reality into extraordinary ... [a "must see" of the year :: standing ovation]

This Movie was fantastic the tricks and turns in this movie blew me away

User review rating: 0 October 27, 2006

This movie could have been so much better. The effects were good, as was the acting, the story however, was lacking in certain areas.

User review rating: 0 October 27, 2006

I figured out the whole movie... and I mean the WHOLE movie in the first 15 minutes... just remember to look at, remember, and above all pay attention to everything in the first 15 minutes... then get up, go to the ticket agent and exchange your ticket(s) for something LESS predictable.

User review rating: 0 October 27, 2006

great twist and turns in this movie! worth the money people go and enjoy!

User review rating: 0 October 26, 2006

A little slow in spots and somewhat confusing from the bouncing back and forth in time and place, but all in all a good mystery. The premise is good, and I loved the tie in to Tesla`s work, for all you science buffs.

User review rating: 0 October 26, 2006

This movie is only confusing for people who have trouble following story lines I had most of it figured out 30 mins before the end. A great movie and storyline worth the money I spent. A little slow at the beginning but picks up.

User review rating: 0 October 26, 2006

confusing at the begining but as soon as starts to unravel its super!!!

User review rating: 0 October 25, 2006

Not very confusing at all. Turns out to be more of a murder Mystery, than a battle between good and evil. Not what I expected, but I wasn`t let down by this at all. Great movie.

User review rating: 0 October 25, 2006

`Presige` is the best movie of the year! All of the actors were phenomenal!, Story line was great! Nothing negative to say about this one! Oscars should be forthcoming!

User review rating: 0 October 25, 2006

Extremely confusing and too much work trying to figure out. I`d go see again and probably catch more, but too tiring to watch a second time.

User review rating: 0 October 25, 2006

It was ok....not as entertaining as The Illusionist. Slow in some parts, interesting concept...not nearly as good as everyone is saying. After reading viewers opinion i had high hopes and was disappointed, but it`s not bad.....3/5 stars.

User review rating: 0 October 25, 2006

I have waiting for this film for a long time now. I was definately not disappionted. I highly recommend this film. Very twisty and thrilling. :)

User review rating: 0 October 24, 2006

Much better than what some of the local papers reviews had said (2 stars out of four). I`d say it`s more like 3.25 / 5.00. Could have been a 4.25 /5.00 if not for the terrible ending, wich begs for a rewrite with a more "grounded" climax. Great acting, I think you either like Hugh Jackman , or you don`t, & Bale deserves Oscar concideration.

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

Amazing movie! It relly made you think, and the things that illusionists do to make their tricks so real! I swear this movie will become an obsession. The acting is fanominal! I have to see it over and over again to get some stuff, and because I want to! I relly sugest you see this movie! It`s worth your money :)

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

Great story, very well acted, Christain Bale & Hugh Jackman are both fantastic. A nice change from the "fluff" that`s out there right now. A little disappointed by the ending.. I agree with the other reviwer`s comment about re-writing the ending... well... rather, re-writing a couple areas of the film in order for it to make sense. Memento, Batman returns are from the Nolan Bros too, so no denying their genius. Go check this one out!

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

This was an awesome movie. The storyline was fantastic. It left the audience wondering what the next turn was, along with the characters at most points. There was a little too much back and forth in time that was confusing. I loved the ending and will have to go back and see it again in order to piece the whole story together. David Bowie was great as well.

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

I`m your Clone Baby! gagaGOOGOO! See the Illusionist instead, a much better film. Also, Jackman loves himself so much it`s halarious!

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

A well told story.

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

By far the best movie of the year!

User review rating: 0 October 23, 2006

This movie is a testament to the facinating writing of the Nolan brothers. With movies such as Memento and Batman Begins behind them, the brothers have no doubt some of the most thrilling and well written screenplays in hollywood today. The back and forth time lines, the way the story is told is sheer brilliance. Its put us on the edge of our seats, and makes us pay attention and follow its every move.
