Absolutely mesmerizing. The film expertly unfolds like a magic trick. And just like a real magic trick, when the final reveal is given, you wonder how you didn't figure it out for yourself, but are nonetheless amazed.

Ackerman: We'll have to dress it up a little. Disguise it. Give them enough reason to doubt it.

More quotes from The Prestige

Trivia: The "Chinaman" in the movie was based on a real-life magician. He wasn't Asian at all, he just dressed and lived the part. The first English he ever spoke in his career were his last words. When a bullet catch went awry, he uttered the words, "My God, I've been shot" just before his death.

Question: When Borden and Fallon are in the same scene, is someone else playing Fallon? Or does Christian Bale play both, the same way Arnie Hammer did on Social Network?

Answer: It's Bale, at least whenever you can see Fallon's face. The same way they do twins played by the same person in any other film.
