San Francisco Chronicle "The Prestige," the latest from Christopher Nolan ("Memento"), is a flat story about a rivalry between two magicians in turn-of-the-century London. Like "The Illusionist," also dealing with magic and set in the same era, it presents a double cat-and-mouse game... Mick LaSalle

Reelviews Watching The Prestige is like observing a magic act where the magician's sleight-of-hand isn't deft enough. The trick almost works, but not quite… With its mechanical twists and turns and lack of heart, the movie often resembles Sleuth in superficial ways, except The Prestige resorts to cheating... James Berardinelli

The Boston Globe Now you don't see them, now you do. On the heels of ``The Illusionist," the season's surprise hit, comes a second tale of period legerdemain. Ironically, doubles are at the heart of ``The Prestige," which sets two magicians at each other ' s throats in a decade-long battle for supremacy. Ty Burr
