Rating: 5.00 teleportation helmets
Genre: Magical Mystery Tour
Starring: Zombieland, the Tooth Fairy, Alfred, Lucius Fox, the Hulk, Green Goblin's kid brother
Plot: Now You See Me has a great cast, and it knows how to play to their strengths. Jessie Eisenberg is a fast talking douche, Isla Fischer is a more than capable verbal foil for him, Mark Ruffalo gets mad, Woody Harrelson just Woody Harrelsons it up. Hell, they even have Morgan Freeman in a role where delivering exposition in character makes sense and fits the film's plot and pace perfectly. And Leterrier's European-inspired pacing also suits the film well.
From the first introduction of the Four Horsemen, to their first crime (the teleporting bank robbery you all saw on the trailer), to the manhunt, betrayals, mishaps, chases, and fights, this movie excels. A perfect mixture of humor, suspense, and puzzles for the viewer to try to work out before the film reveals them (most notably, who should you be rooting for? is there a fifth Horseman? what is the Four Horsemen's endgame? will it work? and is their magic actually real?) await you if you choose this movie.
You'll guess some of this, and guess correctly. But I promise you that you'll be wrong about at least some of it. Now You See Me has a masterfully crafted plot that is delightfully twisted. And the big shocker at the end where
may well leave you congratulating the movie on foiling your attempts to predict it.
Viewing Advice: Don't look too closely. Not because the closer you look, the less you will actually see, but rather because if you sit in those close seats, you'll get real bad neck strain from looking up the whole time.
