Now You See Me - 2013

NOW YOU SEE ME

Rating: 8/10
Notable Actors: Jesse Eisenberg and Mark Ruffalo
Director: Louis Leterrier

The magicians have yet again rose to heights under the heading of Now You See Me. The American thriller is quite an interesting one based on the magician's tricks and how they justify their tricks through simple illusion which once was incomprehensible.

Four Stage magicians Danny Atlas, Merritt Mckinney, Henley Reeves and Jack Wilderare given a tarot card that lead them to the same New York City empty apartment, where they find information from an unknown benefactor.
The magicians are ordinary no more and they perform certain magic tricks that quickly grasp the people's attentions towards them. The trick due to which the FBI and Interpol try to chase and get a hold on them, is that they pull off a bank heist. They steal money from a vault in Paris and 'rain' that money on their audience.

The movie is good but it lacks a strong motive and a back ground. The tricks were appealing but somethings seemed very fictitious opposed to the general idea of this movie. Acting is good enough and ending wasn't so bad hence the rating is justified. It should be watched by those who want a different kind of thriller having some taste of MAGIC.
