A Beautiful Lie

Rating: 10/10 (30 July 2010)

The Prestige is one of the most well crafted movies I've ever seen and it kept me thinking the whole time. Once I thought I understood it, something else came along and changed that. This lasted throughout the whole film and it wasn't frustrating, but extremely intriguing. Pacing was really good and I never lost interest. The story was actually very interesting to me and nothing like I've seen before. The ideas were brilliant and gave the movie the character and spirit it had. Completely original and didn't take from anything else. The performances were great and totally fit with the ending. (You'll see what I mean when you watch) The movie was a magician's act itself, and I would love to see it more than once.
