A captivating Magical Experience

Rating: 8/10 (15 January 2014)

To Sum up the movie in One sentence I would say "A very Powerful and captivating movie on Magic". What this movie does is Actually bring the Old Glitz and Valor back to Magic that has been lost in the modern times. The movie starts off well with 4 stunning Magic performances from the 4 Protagonists with a mystery man watching them in the Background. As the Movie goes ahead, the viewers are served with some of the most enthralling magic performances and also the logic behind each one. The simplicity of each trick is jaw dropping when they are deciphered by Morgan Freeman. The Four Horsemen as the Protagonists call themselves in their stage shows are guided by this mystery man who they themselves will not have seen. After the Final performance from the 4 horsemen they are led to a tree where the mystery man is waiting for them. the 4 Horsemen are in for a huge surprise when they see the FBI agent who has been chasing them all along stands there.
The story is well written with a good old mix of mystery. A stunning performance by lead actors such as Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Micheal Caine and others.
There are a few loopholes in the movie which can be excused looking at the overall performance of the movie. All in all, Its a good watch!!
