The Prestige is a movie about two magicians, Rupert ‘Robbie’Angier (Hugh Jackman) and Alfred Borden (Christian Bale), who rise to the top of their game together from lowly beginnings while constantly pitting themselves against one another. Their feud grows to an obsession to outperform the other with new and more dangerous tricks while trying to sabotage the other’s performance. As their hatred for one another grows, each becomes more willing to risk death and worse to be considered the foremost magician in the world, and their bitter hatred for one another soon spirals out of control. What will each be willing to risk to pull off the ultimate trick, the one that will forever enshrine them as the greatest magician to have ever lived?
