Very clever but not intellectual yet entertaining

Rating: 8/10 (21 October 2013)

The story was commercially very strong and these guys really pulled it together who are not actually the top league actors (big buck giants), except Morgan Freeman. It was also Mark Ruffalo's one of a major role in his career and did nice work. Woody Harrelson also supported very well with young and rising actors like Jesse Eisenberga, Isla Fisher and Dave Franco.
Like I said vast cast and diverse with layers, anything could be happen and anyone could be the end twist. The movie was kinda similar to 2012s 'Red Lights' about exposing the secrets of psychic and magic tricks. Here Morgan Freeman as the chaser and four young magicians called 'four horsemen' are being targeted by him. After theirs first and second show they instantly become national talkative. Along with illusion exposer, the FBI joins them who are after them for their bank heists during the performances.
Kinda cool, very thrilling and entertaining, like a cat mouse-chase. The magics are not really magic that we expect them normally, but very modern and fictional tricks that specially made for cinematic. So don't expect any sense or logic, it has been just major commercial element used as the movie theme, that's all. I enjoyed the movie a lot. If you see the movie poster you will know that where 'The Illusionist' meet 'Ocean's Eleven'. One of 2013s fine commercial entertainer and it can be watched once.
8/10
