David McK (3169 KP) rated The Prestige (2006) in Movies
Dec 8, 2020
Drama set at the end of the 19th century, starring Hugh Jackman and Christian Bale as warring stage magicians, with able (acting) support from the likes of Michael Caine and Scarlett Johansson.
It's just a pity the film is slow, plodding, and has a 'twist' concerning Christian Bale's character that you can see coming from rather early on (although not so much the one with Hugh Jackman's character)

Showstopper
This movie is incredibly fun. Every song is a showstopper climax of a song so it is an energetic ride. I only didn't give it 10 stars because it does not acknowledge the truth of how PT Barnum treated his employees and animals.

Best film of its year!!
Favorite movie of the year when this came out. Hugh Jackman at his finest. Terrific original choreography and soundtrack. This is a great movie for any age. Zendaya and Zac Afron's chemistry on screen was terrific. This movie was a spectacular masterpiece.

Hugh Jackman... duh
Good music and a good story though it is not really Barnum...
Really enjoyed The Greatest Showman. Hugh Jackman is always entertaining and throws himself fully into every role. He has a great voice and he and Zac Efron were terrific on the screen together.
While the music was very good, I don't know that it jumps to the tops of my Spotify playlist but I will be listening through it another few times and I will probably like it more.
It is not the historic Barnum. That is a good thing. He was a horrible individual. That would be a different musical.

Adventure Lives Forever
Van Helsing- tired to atempt starting a universe that didnt happen. Tired to start a franchise/spin-offs that didnt happen. But other than that its good. Hugh Jackman is good as Van Helsing.
The plot: Famed monster slayer Gabriel Van Helsing (Hugh Jackman) is dispatched to Transylvania to assist the last of the Valerious bloodline in defeating Count Dracula (Richard Roxburgh). Anna Valerious (Kate Beckinsale) reveals that Dracula has formed an unholy alliance with Dr. Frankenstein's monster (Shuler Hensley) and is hell-bent on exacting a centuries-old curse on her family. Together Anna and Van Helsing set out to destroy their common enemy, but uncover some unsettling secrets along the way.
Its a good film.

Definitely a must see!
This is one of those films you just have to see. Hugh Jackman is amazing, and even though I’m not an Efronfan, he really steps up to the mark in this brilliant portrayal of the life’s of PT Barnum. With an epic soundtrack that will get your toes tapping, what’s not to love?!

Such a great film!
When I first saw this I didn't know it was a musical. The music pulled me in from the moment it started. The music just builds and builds through out the whole movie. The sound track to this movie is just as amazing too. I highly recommend.
