just watched "the prestige".. i know it's old movie, forgive my slow.. sweat.gif the whole movie is a magic trick.. illusion.. and at the end when i thought i already knew what trickery was going on and there wasn't anything more to reveal.. i got knocked around for a loop by the ending. total mind f***.

what is there to explain ? great danton died
the professor has his own real dupe
whereas  , danton make his duplicate through electricity ( like photostat machine )
at the end , the dupe and great danton died
dupe got hanged accused of killing the danton  ( duplicate )
the professor revenge his dupe by killing the real danton

it's the reveal of the "real dupe" at the end that got me.. i didn't expect that at all.. when great danton got shot i thought it's just a simple revenge by the professor's aide.. but actually it's "himself".. rclxub.gif

Both The Prestige and The Illusionist are miles better than that awful Tony Leung film The Great Magician.
