Well done but dark. Suspenseful. Not a feel good movie at all.
Underrated Christopher Nolan movie. The plot twists and hints you get throughout the movie is a masterclass in storytelling.
Much like a real magician, The Prestige keeps you entertained and enthralled, then surprises you at the end; questioning yourself.
Flawless masterpiece. Every little detail adds context to the plot, the messages are woven seamlessly into the story. A+ performances. 10/10
I think it was one of the twists that kept me away from giving this “Amazing.” It’s over two hours well spent if you ever watch it.
Such an awesome plot twisting film. All the actors and actresses are on point. A Christopher Nolan masterpiece.
First watch through amazing second for me kinda loses its spark
Amazing mind-f*ck movie. I fascinated by the movie
Not always do you see a movie about stage magic with so much complexity of the plot and interesting rivalry.
Just a classic twist at the end but a great rivalry movie. Can get confusing at times.
