one of the best films I have ever seen

Rating: 9/10 (21 October 2006)

19th century London, 2 magicians, and their rivalry, this was a masterpiece. The compelling story full of twist will keep your eyes open the whole time, truly magical, ++A performances by everyone. Christian Bale and Hugh Jackman were amazing, the deception each character brings is so compelling and you will soon find yourself obsessed with the film. The dynamic framework and Victorian setting pull you in from the real world and take you on thrilling experience. Acting as it was meant to be, you will feel the dramatics as if you were at a theatre play and experience the great affects of film. A haunting dark force surrounds many parts and after you leave the theater the film will stay with you. Don't blink.
