SPOILER WARNING - LAST PARA
* Christopher Nolan's my favorite director ... He didn't disappoint me ONE BIT ... and to add to it - the film was another INTELLIGENT MASTERPIECE from him just like MEMENTO ...
* The characterization was soooo damn brilliant ... the story was sooo well crafted ... the screenplay was sooo well interlaced with back-and-forth technique ... the twists were sooo well designed to mis-lead and caught me off-guard almost everytime ...
* In the end - the climax was just AMAZING ...the background voice saying - "The audience want to get fooled ... so they get fooled." and he shows multiple hugh jackman in many cases ...
in my interpretation the machine NEVER was supposed to work ... just like both the diaries of magicians which were meant to mis-guide each other even the machine was supposed to mis-guide jackman into buying it by Tesla ... in the end however both the dupe and the real jackman die however ... the other magician (his competitor) also dies when hanged ... in other words - both of their intentions and greed for success led to their destroying ...
9 / 10

i have seen this movie and it one of the movies that kept u interested till the very last minute (LITERALLY and u know why!). the story was told in a great way, by gonig back and forth characters and the dialogues were so good. the twists were very unpredictable but i must say that the ending disappointed me, but surprisingly that didn't make me feel as if i wasted my time watching the movie because the plot made u keep guessing of what was happening.
btw, one of christian bale's character still lived in the end...
