  • I figured out what was gonna happen about 3/4 of the way through. No surprise at all.

  • I wanna be a f'ing magician now!!! Damn good movie!

  • NETFLIX! Y U NO AVAILABLE IN AUSTRALIA?

  • Not twin, it was his clone.

  • @Holdini1 The Bordens were twins, Alfred and Frederick (both "Fred"). Angier clones himself.

  • @ericclapton00 There was no Alfred Borden. The twins were Albert and Frederick.

  • this is one of the best movies of all time

  • I lurve PRESTIGE!!!

  • It was the 'real' him from the film's percpective that was transported, the clones were left to die.

  • WROOOOOONG Hugh jackman kills the CLONES not himself

  • this movie is awwwesome

  • I'm kinda glad you explained it cause I saw it a few years back and at the end I was like "wait ...whaaaaaat?" kinda hard to wrap your mind around, I loved all the actors though especially Hugh Jackman *drools*

  • I loved it. Its amazing. And this is coming from a performance level magician.

  • this movie is AWSUM!!!!!!!!!

  • anyone notice tha characters names were "mr Bordum" (boredom) and "angier" (anger) and the 2 just go back and forth into the twisting conflict!

  • ..... Hugh Jackman is so sexy .....

  • Wow, that summary sounds incredible. I'm a little sad I listened to the spoiler...

  • the life aquatic with steve zissou

  • seen prestige

    good movie

  • the guys from tge Peepshow made a full movie spoof from this :F

  • This is a seriously kick-ass film.

  • I somehow knew philly d was going to make a reference to American psycho.

  • It wasn't his twin brother! Remember when jackman got the note from bale that said "TESLA" on it. Bale had already cloned himself.

  • @ZaCHwII7 He writes Tesla just to throw Angier off. He mentions that he has a twin brother

  • it was an amaz- F**KING AMAZING movie

    lmao

  • I just saw it and i thought it was awesome! Through the whole thing you're thinking, oh now he won, and it just keep getting switched over and over again... crazy mindfuck

  • I remember seeing this movie when I was like 10. Great movie, I tell ya.

  • In Canada, Netflix has a really shitty library to choose from. the Prestige is definitely not there =(

  • I hate this movie!!! not!!! this movie fucked my mind it was epic!! but i think it is a "one watch" meaning its not the same if you watch it twice. it's some time ago since i watched it but i remember it completely so i >can't< watch it again and that makes me mad.

  • @Freakhead44 See, I think it's a minimum two watch. You watch it the first time through and when the twist happens your like oh. But then, on the second viewing, you're seeing all the foreshadowing and what-not, giving it all so much more value.

    I think the same can be said for Memento, Insomnia, hell pretty much any Chris Nolan movie.

  • Christian Bale has a TWIN!

    FUCK YOU SXEPHIL CUNTS

  • @ihnlChiv Ive already seen it, but you're saying that THEY are cunts? I'd say that you my good sir, are the cunt.

  • I LOVE THIS MOVIE! ^^

    one of my all time favorites! :D

    Seen it many times and I love showing it to friends whom haven't seen it yet :P

    I love to see their reactions :3

    So ofc, everytime I pull out my movie collection and ask them what they wanna watch and what they've seen before... I end up forcing this movie on them, and they end up loving me for it ;D

  • Recorded it off directv

    I probably wont delete it because it was so good

  • its on right now xD. im watching it again.

  • anyone else watching this on FX? :D.....nope k thats cool.

  • DAMMIT I DIDN'T SKIP THE SPOILER CUZ I WANNA SEE THIS MOVIE!

  • i couldnt watch this movie on netflix

  • Christopher Nolan you did it again!! I just watched every single one of your movie clubs in one setting!! pretty sure that is a record!!

  • for real???

    maybe its cuz i watched this movie a Long time ago but i really did Not like it.

    it was just Wayy to Long, (ok so it was 2 hours but it felt like a Good 3hours)

    overly complicated and just felt like a waste of time

  • What are some other good movies like this one?

  • @TheOnlyNap The Illusionist staring Edward Norton is very similar to this.

  • awesome film. great plot. love christopher nolan. he is wonderful!!

  • One of the first dates I ever had was going to this movie in theaters.

  • The prestige is one of my favorite movies ever. But I also like the Count of Monte Christo....

  • i rofled at 3:19

  • Hey, did I mention that I really loved this movie? It's deeper than you'd expect and it has a surprising multiple watch quality to it.

  • i lost my virginity to this movie

  • Talk about Wolverine!

  • Best fucking movie ever!!!! I watch this movie back in 2006 it never gets old!!

  • Movie was long but yet epic

  • Christopher nolan! !!! yes

  • At the end i was like "i know how this ends-WHAT THE FOCK?!? WHAT THE FOCK?!!!!"

  • I just watched this movie. Holy moly Jesus and Mary.

  • nice video

  • haha thanx for letting me know how it ends..i saw this long ago and lost interest halfway threw..

  • The Prestige is in my top 5.

  • The Prestige was definitely one of the most amazing movies I've ever watched

  • PRINCESS MONONOKE by Hayao Miyazaki. Truly a masterpiece.

  • Was the Prestige available for streaming on Netflix when you made the video last week? I went to watch it today but it's only available on dvd now.

  • Repo:the genetic opera

  • Epic! Do not watch with parents.

  • Two words on Prestige: Nolan's classic.

  • Christian Bale's twin is arguably his clone as it is inferred that Borden had contacted Tesla before Angier.

  • The prestige A True Masterpiece...enough said

  • haha *Christian Bale pops out* ...yeah

  • i really actually this netflix sponsoring! its really generous and awesome! thanks, its nice being able to watch all these movies (besides this one...) ! But does the sign up only last this month? Can anyone answer that or thumbs this up so he can read and answer?

  • @kearaking Netflix has always had their 1 month free trial and after your free month you're going to have to pay. Hope that answered your question. Also I LOVED the Prestige, such a great movie.

  • One of my favorite movies by far but of the people who haven't seen the movie, they were probably confused as fuck by your description haha

  • I recommend:

    Paprika <-- animated film that will turn your brain into a rubix cube, mix the colors and leave it that way for you to figure it out.... FOR-E-VURRR! seriously....

  • The "Illusionist" is better...

  • You should watch "this film is not yet rated" you don't have to review it, but it's a great documentary.

  • Comment removed

  • MARTYRS, please watch it please please you wont ever ever regret it

  • I watched this movie in my AP us history class last year.

    AMAZING

  • Was some time since I saw this movie, but wasnt it the twin who DID have the baby who died?

    if so, saaaaad

  • saw that movie!!!! LOVED IT TO DEATH!!!!!! I WAS LIKE WOAH THE WHOLE TIME!!!

  • this movie is the shit. one of my top 5 movies hands down

  • the illusionist will dissapoint you compared to the prestige

  • @LostSanity8 very true

  • Borrowed The Prestige from my library :D didn't have time to watch it yet.... Gonna watch Momento someday too :)

  • The Illusionist if you liked the prestige the illusionist is an excellent movie.

  • The Illusionist if you liked the prestige the illusionist is an excellent movie.

  • hugh jackman welcome ladies and alfred borden. Christian Bale... yay?...

    HAHAHAH that made me laugh so hard

  • Scarlett Johansen is SO hot!!! And yeah, check out the Illusionist. Oh yeah, I wanted to add, the only think I don't like / think is corny, is the implication that Alternating Current is some kind of majic and Tesla was therefore a wizzard.

  • Scarlett Johansen is SO hot!!! And yeah, check out the Illusionist.

  • Great review, man.

  • my favorite non batman christopher nolan film. i dont really like his movies too much. i think he tries too hard. idk how to fix that but i just dont enjoy them that much

  • GREAT MOVIE

  • I am on an iPad watching this.. Theres no annotations while watching with an iPad.. Movie is spoiled :(

  • WATCH "THE ROOM" IT WILL CHANGE YOUR LIFE

  • INTO THE WILD!!!!

  • WATCH REPO! THE GENETIC OPERA

  • REQUIEM FOR A DREAM

  • black snake moan sounds like a porno

  • Good movie

  • @asiankuromi freak yeah that was my first major anime film, sucks cause i compare everything to it and they dont really stand lol

  • HENTAI

  • YES! I saw this movie YEARS ago but could NEVER remember the name! Now I can watch it again :)

  • lets watch, Serenity! love that movie

  • @omgitsjazzyyyy that movie wont make sense to anyone besides firefly fans and all of us have seen that movie multiple times

  • phil, you and kassem are the best youtubers :D

  • what the hell is Alfred doing in the movie!!! lol.

  • @Randomkaoz it's christopher nolan. He LOVES using the same people for his movies, acting and production teams. He did dark knight (christian bale) and alfred. alfred was also in inception. Joseph gordon-levitt was in inception, and now he's in batman 3.

  • @TheAliasGaming damn well hey i guess when you have great actors who can be in any part, why not right? I hope nolan doesn't run out of ideas because he's on a roll. Plus i heard rumors that he's going to do superman too??? i dont know about that one, after the 1st two originals people seemed to walk away from superman and only watch the toons.

  • @Randomkaoz Yeah him & zack snyder (300,watchmen,sucker punch) are doing it together. after seeing nolan do batman VERY intrigued to see him tackle the man of steel.

  • @TheAliasGaming i think superman is going to be the hardest one yet. Because superman has always been boring to me. He's the HULK and silver sufer together lol. He has one weakness that some how everyone gets there hands on and his supervillan is a human being. It's just so lame. For him to get his ass kicked you have to make a supervillian that is beyond anything and when it comes down to it. If these villains are so powerful why do they waste their time with him on earth?

  • That's cause Christopher Nolan is amazing, duh!

  • one of my favorite movies of alll time

  • prestige was amazing. i'm glad you guys watched this.

  • American Splendor is really good : )

  • ETERNAL SUNSHINE OF THE SPOTLESS MIND

  • WATCH DONNIE DARKO! it's so good!

  • Spoiler Alert Why the hell didn't he just disappear and start a new life instead of kill himself each time he does the trick?

  • @hardworker424

    He was due to do 100 shows. Risk having 100 copies of himself out in the world? I doubt it.

  • @WoodenPotatoes I couldn't imagine killing myself 100 times for a show. I rather take the chance then die horribly 100 times but that's just me.

  • @hardworker424

    Oh I also twigged last night. It wasn't just the show - he did it because he KNEW that if he killed himself in that particular tank, given its history with his wife, the twin would be sent to jail. It wasn't just about the show. It was about revenge. About getting his hands dirty.

  • PAPRIKA by satoshi kon!!

  • Movie was badass.

    Next time do 'Brotherhood of the Wolf'

  • OMG, this movie ROCKS!

  • i love you.

  • Spoiler alerts are hard to skip through when watching on a smart phone, I think you had it right the 1st time, after the outro is best in my opinion

  • The Illusionist!!!!!!!!!!

  • Ip man.

  • Watch PAPRIKA from Satoshi Kon. It's a whole bowl of epic; very unique, eye/mind-candy (also inspired inception)

  • *slight spoiler warning* this was an awesome film i really loved it i figured out christian bales trick almost right away i kept second guessing myself over it but about 10-15 mins after i saw it i was sure i figured out teslas machine because of the tophats obviously but still an amazing film the casting was Perfect and the acting therefore amazing pure awesome entertainment

  • I recommend you sir to watch "Dirty Love"!!!

  • The Prestige was a masterpiece I thought.

  • @clamstrips Apocalypse now

    Deerhunter

    V for Vandetta

    The Godfather

    and

    HEAT

    are masterpieces

    the Prestige was a good entertainment film

    :)

  • @DecayOfTheSkies I beg to differ.

    Deerhunter

    V for Vendetta

    The Godfather

    And Heat are entertaining, but not masterpieces (excluding the godfather)

  • @DecayOfTheSkies Those are also great films but doesn't stop Prestige from being one of my favorites.

  • @clamstrips ok :)

    movies are art

    and everybody has a different perception of art :D

  • AWESOME MOVIE

  • i think that it can be compared to inception. 

  • @cade48trujillo1 they both had the same director

  • @MrMMrL now i feel stupid

  • American Psycho is the shit. I have business cards in bone because of that movie.

  • You should watch the kids of america because although it is underated and a bit stereotypical u really fall for th ekids in the movie

  • love the prestige!!!

  • Watch There Will Be Blood!

  • @browneyedgirlks Actually, don't. BORING.

  • watch a Serbian film

  • I loved The Prestige. But what the message I got from the movie, specifically from Nikola Tesla played by David Bowie was, if you make the world's first instant cloning device sell it to magicians.

  • HARD CANDY

  • you should watch the film BRONSON with tom hardy. strange but amazing film x

  • Watch Teenage Dirtbag. It is unlike anything you've watched thus far, so would be a nice way to change things up. As far as a description, I couldn't give one that doesn't sound cliche unless I completely spoiled it, and I loathe spoilers. All I can say is that I have never felt so drawn in by a story that I knew the ending to already. Powerful story, powerful performances, especially from Scott Michael Foster. Cannot wait to see more from him.

  • hugh jackman > christian bale.

  • 0:58 haha american physco crazy ass movie man.

  • I really liked this movie but the ending creeped me out

  • more christopher nolan vids!!!

  • BRONSON

  • twelve monkeys

    

  • eternal sunshine of the spotless mind

  • jesus camp

  • You weren't wearing the same shirt! This was filmed the same day as day 9. I saw the day 9 vid. and everything on your desk looks the same, and your shirt is slanted the same way around your neck! haha

  • Dude I have seen this movie 4 times and still have yet to understand it. Thank you for explaining it!!! I FINALLY get it!

  • The Illusionist!!

    

  • Yeah the prestige was a really good movie, but i watched it so long ago that i had forgot all the twists and turns.

    so now i have to watch it again.

    and you spoiled it for me.

    DAMN YOOOUUU.

    :P

  • Dirty Love

    

  • Watch The Graduate! A classic (I've noticed you haveen't done any of those) which is one of my favourite movies of all time :D

  • You should watch Vanilla Sky!!! Tom Cruise, Penelope Cruz and Cameron Diaz. The acting is great, the story is awesome and the plot is just amazing!!!

  • Wristcutters: A Love Story.
