The Prestige or The Illusionist
Just saw the Prestige this weekend. Great movie. Great ending.I liked it better than the Departed,which I need to see a second time.

I heard the Illusionist was better. Anyone seen both? I plan on watching the Illusionist this weekend.

IMO, The Prestige,The Departed, and Little Miss Sunshine were the 3 best movies I saw last year.

Did not see The Prestige but did see the Illusionist and thought it was very good. The Departed was real good but a little over the top with the violence at the end and Little Miss Sunshine was excellent. Allan Arkin(the grandfather) stole the show.

What is the Illusionist about?

I saw the prestige a couple days ago and really enjoyed it.

Haven't seen the Illusionist yet, but certainly will (bit of a Biel fan ). The Prestige was excellent.

The Prestige was great. Christian Bale, and Hugh Jackman were excellent. Scarlett Johanssen is hot!!

I did not see more than 20 minutes of The Illusionist. I fell asleep. Not because it was bad, but rather I was tired. I will attempt to watch it again.

I want to see the Prestige, looks good. I saw the Illusionist, ending is really good, I really enjoyed the movie. However, not even close to Fight Club if you like endings that really make you think.
