The Prestige

Post by MoonKit »

Another Hugh Jackman movie...it seems he has become my favorite actor.

This one is about rival magicians and does start kind of slow but it all picks up and it is incredible at the end. At least in my opinion. Some of the other actors in it are Christian Bale, Michael Caine, David Bowe and Scarlette Johanson. It was a very good movie...you should all go see it. Im going to own this one too!

Trailer:

Anybody else seen it?

Hahaha. That was David Bowe. I had no idea, the make up was so good. My mate had to tell me. And then I got the whole story about Tesla being real. The machine at the end was just so great. God, can you imagine doing that everynight? Amazing!

A very creative movie from what I've seen of the trailers. Tesla wasn't a magician though, however he did a couple of demonstrations using electricity to prove that his alternating current (AC) was safer than direct current (DC). Not on a nightly basis, and not at that massive scale, but he did it to sell his AC current. Now we use it in electrical outlets in every home in america.

I thought it was a bit meh. It was really slow in the middle, and went on a bit long...the ending was a bit good though :) its a film to watch once i think, and not to buy

I KNOW I COULDN'T BELIEVE IT WAS DAVID BOWIE EITHER, and it took me a while to realize where I knew him from then it hit me! No i so think Tesla is better the Edison hands down!
