This is another movie that I've seen previously, that I decided to watch again. I've been on something of a Christian Bale kick lately.This movie is an excellent flick about a rivalry between two magicians, one a great showman but only mediocre magician (Hugh Jackman), and the other a great magician but mediocre showman (Christian Bale). After Borden (Bale) accidently kills Angier's (Jackman) wife, Angier becomes obsessed with finding out the secret to Borden's greatest trick, with the ultimate goal of destroying Borden's career and life.
With a great script and outstanding performances from Bale, Jackman, and Michael Caine, this movie is definitely worth watching if you haven't already. And if you have already seen it once, it's worth watching a second time for all the extra things you'll notice the second time around.
9/10
