The Prestige

This movie is set back in the late 1800's. The theme of the movie is that two magicians Robert Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden(Christian Bale) that start out working together for a trick designer named Cutter(Michael Caine). In a freak accident during a trick Angiers wife dies due to drowning in an escape contraption. Soon after the two go their seperate ways to work on magic alone. They eventually start acts in which they try to outdo one anothers tricks. They begin trying to rip off each others acts and do underhanded things to ruin the others show.

I was in awe of the depth that the jealousy would go and the extent of what these two would do to one up each other. The acting as well as the story line is awesome. The supporting cast did very well also and the entire movie will keep you guessing until the end. I give this movie a strong 9.5 out of 10. the only reason that i didnt gve it a perfect score was because i started to catch on a few minutes before the end but still ended up surprised. All in all i suggest you see this movie ASAP!
