the prestige

The Prestige has just about everything I require in a movie about magicians, except … the Prestige. By describing the structure of a great trick in a movie about a great trick, The Prestige makes a promise it can’t keep. It’s all pretty much brilliant until its third act which is about as convincing as a photo of a cow jumping over the moon. There’s plenty going on but never any real magic – even fickle Scarlett Johansson or David Bowie (haha) can’t change tack.
