A GREAT movie (don't be fooled by the hate)

the plot is stupid and just boring, you wait for something big and get one of the most ridiculous final twists ever, watch Prestige if you like magic-themed movies, it's a million times better!

Could not disagree more, it is in fact, a total shart fire made for idiots. The plot is nowhere near clever because it makes absolutely no sense whatsoever. It's so dumb I don't even know where to start. But what's the point, you're probably one of bots who are paid to boost ratings and troll discussion boards. Good luck in life.

No offense, I can understand if you just didn't like the film but calling it "the dumbest plot ever" is beyond me. I mean, cinemas are now filled with Marvel and DC movies, I don't think an illusionist is much dumber than a superhero that turns green (no hate, I love superhero movies).
So, if Marvel and DC movies are dumber than this, it means this is a good movie, is that it? This movie is so convoluted and dumb, I felt my neurons wither and disperse, it's definitely one of the worst movies of the past 10 years.-You won't forget me now?

i just saw it for the first time and i loved it as well. I think there are pretentious people that just like to hate. There are movies that are supposed to be realistic (i.e. Schindler's List) and movies that are intentionally not supposed to be realistic (i.e. just about every super hero movie, the fast and furious franchise and others too numerous to mention).
This film achieved what it set out to do. The filmmakers weren't going for realism and to force that criteria on them is unfair and misses the point. I could go on about how Superman's power of flight defies physics in numerous ways or how so-and-so would have died from that fall instead of walking away unharmed but i see each film for what it is supposed to be.
I am a fan of all types of films, from the Godfather to the Fast and Furious franchise but i don't judge them all the same way any more than i would say that a steak is not as good as an orange because it's not sweet. -

Exactly my feelings. It felt so FRESH. With an excellent cast. And great tricks, although some hardly plausible. And then, who cares.. It was about magic after all.
What the heck is wrong with some people.
