Yeah... The Prestige looks better IMO.

This movie looks alright. Not super great... but average. I'll reserve judgement until I see the film.

Director Neil Burger delights in getting period details right! The illusions are smart, as is the script. The photography is gorgeous, as is Jessica Biel. And the line between truth and illusion is blurred so persuasively that for a moment or two, you may even believe that a romantic costume drama could stand up to all those special-effects blockbusters in the dog days of summer.

I'll rent it when it comes out on DVD, but I have no desire to see it in the theater.

Yeah The Prestige looks much better, and has a better cast in my opinion. It has three of my favourite actors in it so you can't go wrong there! Although, The Illusionist also has a good cast but they're just not my favourite actors. I like Rufus Sewell though. I think I will see this film though 'cause it does look alright. But I just looked it up on IMDb and it only has 6.6. There are quite a lot of films on there that have lowish ratings that I love though. I'll just have to see.

From the look of the film I'm not too keen on it, The Prestige however is one I want to see a lot more.

I haven't seen the trailer for The Illusionist, but I have seen the one for The Prestige. They both sound good, but I really don't know.
