movie: The Prestige

[juldea]

Ooooh.

londo and I watched The Prestige tonight. Mmmmmm. Gooooood movie. Really makes me shake my fist at it at the end.

I guessed at a lot of it before the end, though. I said, "You know, I bet blahblahblah," to londo a few times, and was right! I just didn't, you know, trust that I was right. :P

Thanks to alexx_kay for introducing me to this movie, which is much better than the book it's based on.

My pleasure!

Have you guys seen The Illusionist? It's the other movie from that year about 19-century stage magicians and a twist ending, but it's totally different :-)

We have not! How totally different? Because totally different implies a bad movie. ;)

[alexx-kay.livejournal.com]

Well, I quite liked them both, but for very different reasons. To say more would probably enter spoiler territory, but I definitely recommend it.

Ok. I'll make a mental note of it. :)

Much agreed.

I haven't seen it but I REALLY want to because I hear Hugh gets totally shirtless and Hugh + Christian Bale = zomghawt.

Plus I hear it's really good blah blah blah HOT MANFLESH

Dude, the HOT MANFLESH is totally a reason to see it. Doooo iiiiit.

That's the one with the very yummy Christian Bale and the equally yummy Hugh Jackman isn't it? *swoon*

[juldea.livejournal.com]

That's the one! They're both quite yummy, aren't they? :)

I tried watching the Prestige at the theatres, but I'm not sure if the food I ate before, or the shaky camera throughout made me sick. I suspect the movie gave me motion sickness.... Which is sad since it seemed like a good movie.

Aww, that sucks. It is definitely worth watching.
