Twelve years after they dazzled us with their magical skills, the “Four Horsemen” are mysteriously reunited and joined by an enthusiastic young trio who bring some new blood to their most difficult challenge yet. Someone wants them to bring the wealthy “Veronica Vanderberg” (Rosamund Pike) to her knees, but the only way to do that is to pinch her enormous diamond. Needless to say, this is kept in an ultra-secure vault and this one is also buried deep in the Arabian desert. Before they can even think on appropriating this gem, the cocky “Atlas” (Jesse Eisenberg) has to learn to get on with the even more sure of himself newbie “Bosco” (Dominic Sessa) whilst all seven, gradually, proceed to try to work together and decrypt the secrets hidden within a French château that has more than it’s fair share of secret passages and surprise residents. Meanwhile, this infamous stone has another would-be owner, who is attempting to blackmail the money laundering “Veronica” with some information that she might not want public. With no shortage of people trying to steal the thing, what happens next…? It has some moments, this film, when the pace really picks up and the visuals deliver some quickly paced feats of illusion that are quite entertainingly and usually acrobatically presented. In some ways, it also serves to debunk some of the myths of these theatrically deceptive arts, but sadly these scenes are too few and far between. There’s just way too much dialogue, and not enough vanishing. To be fair to Pike, she does look the part and her South African accent just about stays the course; Sessa, Justice Smith and Ariana Greenblatt deliver fine as they breathe new life - and a little map humour - into old props, but Harrelson hams up too annoyingly, Dave Franco just models his beaming smile and small T-shirts and Isla Fisher isn’t really on screen often enough to make very much difference to a story that is dragged out as if it were being paid, scene by scene, by a tourist board or some luxury product placement. It isn’t dull, and the production is way more highly polished than her jewel, but I think the sleight of hand filming techniques that maybe worked in 2013 are less effective now that we all know CGI can render the impossible, possible. Harmless fun.

FULL SPOILER-FREE REVIEW @ https://movieswetextedabout.com/now-you-see-me-now-you-dont-movie-review-ruben-fleischer-presents-a-more-polished-yet-empty-trick/ Rating: C+ "Now You See Me: Now You Don't undoubtedly asserts itself as the most solid entry in this trilogy, raising the technical bar and finding new life in the reinvigorated dynamic of its cast. However, all the superficial shine and aesthetic improvements fail to hide a script that confuses complexity with complication, delivering characters that function merely as pieces on a formulaic board. It works as light entertainment, but it's insufficient to fully justify its return to the big screen. It invites us to look closer, but unfortunately, the closer we look, the less we see the depth it promises, leaving only the fleeting glow of a well-rehearsed trick, yet empty of true magic."

**Boring and stupid** Hard to believe that after so many years of hiatus, the franchise will bring such a stupidly boring movie. The original movie was all about deception, magic, and surprises. This movie, however, tries to be a love child of Indiana Jones and Mission Impossible. It was less about magic and more about running and chasing. Too many plot holes. A billionaire and her security act like completely stupid people. The magicians had no plans beyond stealing the diamond and then just running (really?). The new characters are uninteresting, somewhat annoying, and easily forgettable. There were some woke messages as well to make the movie stink worse. Just watch the first scene of the first movie of this franchise, and you will realize how clever the original was and how stupid the present one is. I lost all hope from the present-day creators.

While i will admit i watched this movie very high, I can confidently say that the script is utter garbage. Like another user said it's just constant 'chasing' things happen to the protags and the protags do,,, things- for no real reason either. There's a lot built into the plot that conveys to me that the writers are trying to say _something_ about money. Imagery of things associated with the high life and wealth are constantly on display throughout the movie, but substance is highly lacking. Sometimes there are dialogue sequences where it feels like the actors are reading the script for the first time and reacting to it live like it's some sort of blooper sequence and i found that funny.
