I am still having trouble deciding who really was the better magician. Perhaps the Nolan brothers are the answer.
The Prestige is one of the best movies I’ve ever seen.
Concur. I had to watch it for a college course years ago and was absolutely blown away. One of my all time favorites.
Christian Bale is just so fucking good in this movie.
Now go back and watch it again just to see how many details and clues your missed the first time.
who really was the better magician
John Cutter. Angier and Borden have good gimmicks, but they don’t understand magic in the way Cutter does.
Were you watching closely?
This and the illusionist are both great movies. I immediately think of Red Lights after those 2.
I’ll have to add that to my watch list. I hadn’t heard of the illusionist until now thanks!
They came out at around the same time I think.
They did. It’s kinda like A Bug Life and Antz
Or Dante’s Peak and Volcano. I think this phenomenon is called twin films.
My favorite movie. Are you watching closely?
My favorite Nolan movie.
What a fucking awesome movie.
Sadly for me, it’s a one time watch movie cause I already know the plot. Wish my brain got reset function 😂
It really rewards rewatching IMO. You can appreciate the huge amounts of foreshadowing. The movie tells you exactly what’s going on right from the beginning. But you’re not really looking, because you want to be fooled.
I’m not a big movie rewatcher myself, but this is one of those movies to watch again because you know the plot. It’s extremely well crafted, and there are plenty of significant scenes with hidden meaning or foreshadowing to catch on the second watch if you keep your eyes open.
Its among my all time favourites! Such an incredible movie!
