Are you watching closely?
I am. I did. And sometimes I still do. Indeed, The Prestige is no doubt an innately re-watchable movie. A cinematic trick and treat of sorts where Christopher Nolan revels in doing what he does best…blowing our little tiny minds.
Magic & Nolan seem like an appropriate partnership so it’s no surprise that The Prestige has a cult like following from the true fans of the visionary director. Nolan is a master in the skill of complex misdirection and this movie is one of his most thrilling and captivating works. It’s moody, evocative and often quite tense and fits more into the mould of a thriller at times.
The lead performances from @thehughjackman and Christian Bale are both excellent. Michael Caine, @rebeccahall , Scarlett Johansson, @piperperabo and the late great David Bowie round off an amazing cast. The movie also contains some absolutely brilliant cinematography by @wpfister .
Those familiar with Christopher Nolan will admire and recognise “The Prestige” as yet another piece of his obsessively intellectual style of film. Those who don’t may need to make sure they are free from distraction.
Either way, a good time is almost certainly guaranteed.
