Dud!

Rating: 1/10 (23 March 2007)

Yes, I was pretty excited to go and see The Prestige. Supposedly brilliant twists and an ingenious puzzle...directed by the man who brought us Memento. Well, all the pieces of the puzzle were laid out quickly to the audience and not to far in the two main twists presented themselves too. After that clues were forced down our throats until I started to believe there had to be a third, more brilliant twist to the story. It never presented itself though. Shame on you Mr. Nolan! The acting is pretty good, the film looks good, but I still felt robbed at the end. Do go see it though if you usually aren't able to predict the twist. It will leave you feeling really smart.
