Now You See Me

May exist in human nature to want to be deceived. Fooled. Tested knowledge at a higher level again. That is why we as the audience really liked the movie with a twist ending, the film keeps us guessing what happens next. Now You See Me is a film that combines the techniques of magic and once using the magic technique for drama theft (heist). By combining two genres that often trick the audience if the story was initiated by Boaz Yakin and Edward Ricourt and directed by Louis Letterier up to it?

The beginning of the film introduces audiences to four people who have magic tricks magician different: Daniel Atlas, Henley Reeves, Jack Wilder, and Merritt McKinney. The four were then combined by a mysterious. One year later passed and the four people who are now standing behind Arthur Tressler, a tycoon who was pleased to see a magic show. In their magic show in Las Vegas four teleport a spectator to Paris and then returns the audience with money from the bank guarded Paris.

The level of international criminal insane and it makes no sense to invite the attention of the FBI and Interpol agents police. The two men who led this investigation is Dylan Rhodes of America and Alma Vargas from France. Both were chasing and trying to catch a group of four magicians who call themselves the Four Horsemen. While the tycoon Arthur Tressler protect them from the police on the other four activities is pursued also by Thaddeus Bradley, a former magician who has now changed his profession as one that aims to justify any means to uncover the mystery magic techniques.

What exactly is the purpose of the Four Horsemen with the show-the show? Is cooperation of Dylan and unable to stop Thaddeus fourth lunge magician or will they successfully staged the biggest heist in the history of magicians?

The film with the two-hour duration of this approach has a super-fast pacing. With a narrative that constantly moves and dynamically highlights many different characters the audience is not given much time to analyze the plot in detail. And it even be an advantage for this film because if it does want to be explored more in the Now You See Me actually has some plot holes that disrupt the pleasure to watch. But during the show like a magician Louis Letterier widescreen continue to make our attention at the screen sucked, challenging our brains come to catch treats the information that is thrown to us every time.

The film has an ensemble cast which is a remarkable mix of young stars like Jesse Eisenberg and Dave Franco to star a la Morgan Freeman elderly and Michael Caine. All of them perform optimally fit their roles here. I myself was fooled by the second half of the film that moved the focus of the four Horsemen to the legal side chasing them. Here also Mark Ruffalo and Melanie Laurent look good and have good chemistry on screen. However good appearance of Eisenberg, Franco, Fisher, and Harrelson on the screen actually makes me want to see all four working together and exchanging banter again - maybe if a sequel is made?

As well as movie magic heist movie Now You See Me is actually still below other films such as The Italian Job or The Prestige which focuses on one theme. But as a film that combines these two themes into a single Now You See Me rotate fairly successful with a large enough number of characters that each actor-artist to get spotlight evenly. Stamp twist on termination of the story could be a surprise for those who are not observant observe (or even too jelly?). As Daniel said the magician Atlas: "If you're watching too closely ... you will actually miss watching something ...".
