One of the worst movies ever

Rating: 1/10 (22 October 2006)

It's the longest movie I've ever sit through, it felt like 9 or 10 hours at least. Nothing interesting happens, it's a story so convoluted and stupid written only to get to the last "shocking reveal" that ANYONE with half a brain would expect coming since the introduction Caine gives about a magic trick. I wonder just how can Hollywood believe that people are still impressed or interested in this "usual suspect" trickery: come up with something else already, we don't need to be "fooled", we can take a good narrative that doesn't try to outsmart us (specially when it doesn't like in the Prestige). And then that reveal is even dumber than you could ever imagine, not that you wouldn't see it coming at least 30 minutes ahead, it's just that you would hope that it's not THAT stupid and that the writer/director would respect the audience and give something credible or at least smart. No luck with that. Anybody that loves movies should stay away from this crap, I'm just glad I didn't pay to see it, but I'm sad about wasting a couple of hours of my time with it. Save yours, go see anything else, avoid at all costs, it is worse than Al Quaeda.
