I thought The Prestige was superb! It was fascinating to see David Bowie play Nikola Tesla, too. He’s a good actor, though the part was a restrained one. I hadn’t realized, having forgotten way too much high-school- and college history, that Tesla and Thomas Edison were rivals.
Christian Bale most definitely isn’t hard on the eyes! But, seriously, he is a good actor, and I thought he did a good job with his hard London accent. Also good were Michael Caine, Hugh Jackman, Scarlett Johansson, and others (I thought Bale’s wife in the movie was quite good).
