Now You See Me
When the magic in your movie about thieving magicians isn’t so special, you have a problem. Now You See Me‘s magic wasn’t so special. That is one of many problems with the movie and its most glaring. The big reveal wasn’t so big because you were expecting something. The red herring was too much to believe they kind of threw it in just to make the big reveal bigger, but you already new it was coming.
Anyhow, the film is a good popcorn movie. You’ll enjoy it for what it is, but afterwards you’ll forget about it until you catch it on USA network in 2 years.
The magic could’ve been more interesting.
3 of 5 stars.
