• Whilst I can't publish my review just yet, I can say that I did see "The Prestige" on Monday and it's really good (3/4 stars on my scale), albeit not at all what I expected. None of the trailers have really got the tone right as it's a very hard film to pin down (trust me that's a good quality). There's a lot of twists, several biggies in particular (got the biggest right away myself but missed the other one), and David Bowie as Nikola Tesla is just inspired casting. Just be prepared, this is not "The Illusionist" (it's definitely better than that) but rather a clever and quite dark tale of obsession taking two men too far - equal parts frustrating, ambitious, original and entertaining.
