Starring Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale... how could you go wrong? Add Michael Cain, Andy Serkis, David Bowie, and Scarlett Johansson and it's gonna be pretty darn cool. The story follows two magicians as they do everything and anything to prove that they are the better magician. It challenges the way you see everything in the film and totally creeped me out.
It's difficult to layer and arrange a movie where you can put things at the very beginning that are obviously clues but still be able to withhold their meanings until the very end. Creepy, cool, intense, and I couldn't get it out of my head all night last night. Will be watching it again this morning. Since we don't really do rated R movies, this one is the most gripping I've seen in a very long time. PG-13 doesn't get more intense than this and it was some yummy brain candy after a long day of child care.
Watch it after the kids are in bed so you can catch the whole thing. Love Christian Bale but I always have to turn the subtitles on when he's in a movie.
