Not in any way a "Top 100" movie

Rating: 5/10 (26 June 2007)

Too full of the current fashion: flash-backs, flash-forwards, twists, and turns. The main point of them in this case seems to be to confuse people. Well, guess what, I was confused, but that didn't stop me from figuring out the BIG SURPRISE that Borden had a twin about halfway thru the movie. here's an example of those giving it a "10": "Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman give out powerful performances. I can imagine no other actors to portray these characters." Whenever someone says that about actors in a movie, you know they cannot think outside the cranium, never mind outside the box. And here is more "The film also features a solid performance of David Bowie, playing an expert in electricity." Whoa. This film expert never even heard of Nikola Tesla. Hey film school dropout, he is a real person. Whether he built the first transporter/cloner/whatever, well, we'll leave you to think about that. What? Don't they offer "Physics for Dumbies" in film school?
