Review: Now You See Me

Now You See Me (2013)
Directed by: Louis Leterrier 
Staring: Jesse Eisenburg, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Isla Fisher, Mark Ruffalo and Morgan Freeman.

I have always been entertained by magic and lately my 9 year old has become obsessed with it. With that said, I was excited to see Now You See Me as my next review. It combines the fun of magic with the action of a classic heist movie. With an all-star cast it’s action packed and keeps you guessing up until the end.

Right from the start you see the four magicians that are being recruited to be in an elite magic society doing some impressive illusions. The illusions they go on to provide are mind boggling and remarkable. Of course not everyone is happy with what the illusions are leading to, bank robberies. The police always seem to be one step behind and the magicians take great pleasure in it. The end is not what you will expect and this is coming from a girl who is usualy able to call the end of a film within the first twenty minutes.


The acting is well done, with the exception of Isla Fisher, and the music is exactly what you would want for this film. I give this film a 4 out of 5 stars and say it is a must see.
