Engaging and mysterious

Rating: 8/10 (30 July 2013)

This film is quite different from any other I had seen before. It instantly draws you in and the story line at some points is somewhat confusing and yet it is still really gripping and not too difficult to follow.
Now You See Me boasts a lot of well known actors and they were all great in their respective roles. A positive thing was that each character was interesting in their own way and it was also amusing to see their relationships develop as most of the main characters only meet as we the viewers meet them too.
There were several twists throughout this film, most of which I didn't see coming at all and each new revelation made the film even more exciting. From having seen the trailer this film did not turn out how I expected it would and I was pleasantly surprised.
Overall this film was an exciting watch, interesting change from the usual mainstream films and therefore a definite recommendation from me.
