Overall: This movie is, simply put, a work of art. Not perfect by any means but honestly this movie is excellent. Nolan hasn't failed me yet!
Good: The cinematography was phenomenal. The music was very well done and excellently crafted. All the acting from Hugh Jackman to Christian Bale to even Michael Caine, whom I was pleasantly surprised to see here, was incredible. The story itself is excellent with an incredible ending. Very well drawn and developed characters who each have their own motives and personas which drive them. The actual magic tricks themselves, while fake, where awesome and just were cool to witness.
Bad: The first act is a tad confusing and easily its weakest. Christian Bale's accent can get a tad annoying from time to time but that is a minor gripe.
Best Part: The Ending
MVP: Christian Bale as Alfred Borden
10/10
