Review of The Prestige (2006) by Leonard D — 30 Aug 2016

The last movie, sadly, that I've ever seen the late David Bowie in. Even though his role here was short, he still showed a very mature and dominating presence around this great cast of characters, and that is one reason why this feature is awesome! The rest of the the actors, from Hugh Jackman, all the way to Michael Caine, are outstanding here as well! I love the way the film keeps you guessing when these two rival magicians are working very hard to discover each other's secrets, and the twists, I feel, are very rewarding! I can't think of any gripes about this film, from the effects, to the tone, locations.

Everyone does a great job here, and for the past decade, it's become one of my favorite movies. Christopher Nolan made something special here, compared to his other credits, and next to The Dark Knight, this is one film which I consider a tour de force!
