Blah not worth the hype.

Rating: 4/10 (22 February 2014)

Right, were to begin? How about the fact that there were both good and bad things about this movie, yes despite my tight rating. Good: What a cast! Isla fisher, Jesse Eisenberg, Michael Caine, Morgan freeman and mark Ruffalo. They are usually good actors but they turned in average performances. The tricks are really quite clever and entertaining- for a magic show NOT a movie! The locations are cool? Nah I'm pretty much scraping the barrel here. Let me launch into the negatives: 1. Isla fisher and her character's annoying voice. 2. Morgan freeman should not have lowered himself to this movie, he plays a debunker of magicians called Thaddeus Bradley..WHAT??! 3. Michael Caine makes the exact same mistake. 4. If Ruffalo was in on the magic the whole time why was he such a maggot to the French girl? Asking if she was really who she says she is...have you looked in the mirror lately? 5. Plus why did Ruffalo risk climbing into a burning car to check on what he knows is a dead corpse? Was he trying so hard to convince his people that he is a cop that he felt the need to risk imminent death?! 6. What do they do when the carousel ride ends? 7. Common is in this movie...gets hypnotised...plays imaginary violin when a curse word is said. Need I go on? Do not see this movie.... Watch CinemaSins' Everything wrong with now you see me on you-tube to fully reiterate my point. Ta x
