I really loved this movie. Most movies I'm satisfied with watching only once. Sometimes I want to watch a second time before sending back to netflix. This one I watched 3 times before I could let it go and now it's on my list of movies to buy.

I love Edward Norton and I was surprised at how much I liked Jessica Biel in her role. She is the reason I put off watching this one but I couldn't imagine anyone else playing her role after seeing the film. She did a wonderful job. Edward Norton is always incredible. Overall, casting was really good. I loved the suspence and how the movie really came together at the very end with a wonderfully surprising twist that I was not at all expecting.

My 18 year old watched this one and didn't care for it as much. He preferred The Prestige which we both watched during the same week. I didn't care for the Prestige at all.

I really liked this movie too. The only thing I didn't like was the short ending.
