Robin Hood Magicians

Rating: Null/10 (31 May 2013)

I saw "Now You See Me", starring Jesse Eisenberg-The Social Network, Zombieland, Woody Harrelson-The Hunger Games, Zombieland, Mark Ruffalo-The Avengers, 13 Going on 30 and Morgan Freeman-Olympus Has Fallen, Red.
This is a movie about illusionists that pull bank heists but don't keep their ill-gotten gains; they reward their audiences with the money. Jesse and Woody are 2 of the 4 prestidigitators that are gathered together by an unknown benefactor for unknown reasons-at least they are unknown until the end of the film. Each one of the 4-they call themselves 'The 4 Horsemen'-have different specialties-one is a mentalist , one is an escape artist , etc.. After their first heist, Mark-an F.B.I. agent-starts trying to apprehend the group but has no luck. Morgan plays a famous former magician that is now a famous debunker of magicians-he reveals how they do their tricks and is enlisted by Mark to help him catch the thieves. I have always been interested in magic tricks and the way they work so this movie was right up my alley-most of the tricks are explained later in the movie. It's rated "PG-13" for language and sexual content and has a running time of 1 hour & 56 minutes. I enjoyed this one and I would buy this on Blu-Ray.
