It works towards some "6th Sense" type of stuff but it could have used some tighter editing. I caught most of the twists, but then I had to spend 15 minutes explaining it to my wife and her friends after the movie. Some real direct plot metaphors that become apparent at the end, and a lot of foreshadowing.
Bowie was so good I didn't even know it was him

one last chance to turn back...
I think I'd go with a B-. I agree the editing or the story could have used some help in the middle and the end. I had pretty much figured out how Bordon was performing his Transported Man act as soon as he did it. And Fallon was no suprise, I had guessed that after the second or third time he was on the screen.
I liked the way that in the beginning of the movie Hugh Jackman was protrayed as the victim needing revenge and Christian Bale was seen as the bad man with no morals willing to do anything, but in the end the roles appear reversed and Bale became the victim was seeking to right a wrong and possibly revenge and Jackman was a man that allowed an obsession to corupt him and become the bad man.
And yes David Bowie was great, I actually had to watch the credits to make sure it was him.
