I saw it and liked it. Hugh Jackman is good, but I think Christian Bale's performance is the most impressive. Christopher Nolan (the director, and I think, co-writer) did an excellent job playing with the different chronologies, revealing things as they needed to be, much as he did in Batman Begins.

This makes me want to see Insomnia. Anyone else seen it?

I've seen Insomnia and it is worth a rental. It doesnt stick with me that well, so it must have not been THAT amazing, but i remember liking it. Robin Williams does a good job.

I didn't care much for Insomnia. I'm not trying to be cute here, but it kept putting me to sleep.

pretty much agreed on that. although robin williams actually made a good villain the movie was just so ploddingly monotonous.

and yes. the prestige was awesome.

Nolan's weakest IMO. Following was better. But it's still a pretty decent flick, a sold relatively good, but not like Memento or Batman Begins.
