Magnificent. Brilliant.

Rating: 9/10 (14 March 2017)

I don't know why I don't give this 10. It's perhaps a principal. This movie deserves all the praise in the world.
This movie combines so many satisfying elements. It's an extremely well written movie that will turn and twist the plot several times, and make sure you are left with a million questions.
But at the end, all those questions are answered. Ahh, and the satisfaction.
An emotionally strong, deceptively clever, star class performed, visually stunning, and magic induced movie that perhaps shows us the very best of Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale, in a vicious battle of rivals as two magicians will do anything in their power to outperform the other.
Also, "sophisticated", I believe, deserves to be mentioned as a key keyword for this movie. Beautiful.
I don't care who you are, or whether you like "these kind of movies" or not, it's still something you must see. The world of movies would not be the same without The Prestige.
