The Prestige is the story of two rivaling magicians. It is based off a novel of the same name by Christopher Priest.

The magicians, Alfred Borden and Robert Angier start a feud when they are young, and the feud pushes them to one up each other constantly. The effects in the movie are pretty sweet, but nothing compares to the novel.

The film stars Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale as the two main characters. Oh, and Scarlett Johansson plays the woman that comes between them. I don't want to spoil anything, but she's part of the reason for the feud.

hmm That's interesting! I guess why I really like the book is the organization. There are parts here and there that are flashbacks, and it's hard for them to portray7 scenes like that in a movie.
