The cast were as good as ever, with Mark Ruffalo, Jesse Eisenberg and Morgan Freeman in particular, adding to their characters and making them more interesting. Isla Fisher's character was missed, but her replacement was energetic enough to fill the void. There were plenty of plot twists (some clever, some a bit far-fetched) to keep your interest throughout. There was a good balence between humour and thrills as well. Bottom Line: if you enjoyed the first one, you'll probably enjoy this. If not, you probably won't think much of it. Hopefully, this does well enough to justify a third instalment in the trilogy. Expand

This movie delivers all expected of magic - theatrics, spectacle, humor and slight of hand. It also delivers awesome characters and a great soundtrack. However, the camera sometimes shakes for no reason and the storyline lacks anything special.

Knowing that it was sequel, I was at the expectation for how it could meet with the success of the first movie, and I can say that it exceeded It. One of the best things of the sequel was the emotion that causes the constant discoveries and how the director makes you stay connected with his film. That's why I found it exciting and captivating. Among an all-star cast and an enthralling story, I think we have an excellent summer movie. Expand

Very entertaining movie. not so surprising as the first Now You see Me, but it still was unpredictable in a good way and I liked it a lot. Excellent that they casted Radcliffe for this part, given the whole 'magic' subject, made it extra funny.

The original Now You See Me was a very fun film, though hard to understand, but was very thrilling. In this sequel, it's the exact same thing. Now You See Me 2 is very entertaining but once again, it's very hard to follow through, if you forgot little plot details about the original. Yet the magic is back and the amazing cast is once again excellent. Now, Daniel Radcliffe was fine - not amazing. He was just there and it felt like it was for no reason. I really loved the china setting and how it all fits in and that element was really fun. Overall, I actually like this sequel better than the original. I personally think fans of the original should like this one as well as you do get a lot of magic scenes from the movie. The film had a perfect run length and it's just entertaining. Just go watch it when your brain is clear so that you can thoroughly understand it. (90/100) Expand

extremely entertaining movie, im going to tell you right now its worth a watch.

the movie is about magic and resurrecting people (not literally) while being hunted down by Alfred (from the Dark Knight trilogy), his son Walter and the FBI in short.
everyone gives a great performance, especially Lizzy Caplan who brings so much energy to the movie that elevates it and you and makes almost every scene with her incredibly fun.
Jesse Eisenberg and Mark Ruffalo are basically the stars of the movie and they give a great performance. the other characters do an OK job but nothing spectacular.

the scenes that contain magic are of the best in the movie even if they are so over the top (Jesse stops the rain) that it makes you think "nope not a chance that can be done".

overall i smiled and laughed throughout the majority of this movie, the story is great, the characters are funny and most of them are well developed (one is particularly annoying) but even with its faults i cant say i didn't have a great time and i really think you should see this movie!

Now You See Me 2 has plenty of misdirectionThe second movie explains the origins of why the first took place and expands on the concept of magicians trying to work against those that would seek to harm people or use them for personal gains. Now You See Me 2 has plenty of misdirection and plot twists that fuel the "magic". It's all very good as a whole but the package isn't quite as special this time around. If you're like me, everything was good but not as great as it could be. The surprises were legitimate but they were in some way expected. Only a few parts of the movie truly made me go "aha". Still, it's well worth a watch, assuming you enjoyed the first film enough to think to yourself "I'd like to see more", and why wouldn't you? There's a superb cast to watch, just be sure you're watching everything carefully. There's a LOT going on in this sequel. Will there be a third? Expand

If you like the first one, You'll love this one. The magic is good but what really gets it is the cast that works well together and a surprisingly well written story that keeps you interested from start to finish, Even if it is a little predictable.

"Now You See Me 2" is a worthy successor to the original with another dose of fun and spectacularly deceiving magic tricks and thrilling action sequences that will keep you on the edge of the seat for most of the film.

While there are some questionable element here and there that I won't spoil for you, I never found they ruined the movie. There is more humorous relief here compared to the original which works both in its favor and sometimes entirely against it, but overall "Now You See Me 2" is a fun summer movie that delivers spectacle and wonder in equal parts.

Man was I wrong. This movie answer all the questions that I had from the first. Plus I actually did what I wanted the first film to do, focus on the horseman more. Plus add an interesting obstacle for them to overcome. Also the Morgan Freeman character was explored more in this film. Add some great magic tricks and you got a great film. Expand

An interesting movie, if you like magic tricks (more like movie effects here, but still interesting) and the story is an interesting watch, even though doesn't make sense at some points, but besides that it is pretty ok and the movie is fun.

I believe that this movie is one of the best I've ever seen. The plot absolutely blew me away. Maybe because I do magic, I think that it's astounding but the fact remains that the dialogue for this movie is indeed deep and provocative. The CGI and special effects were absolutely stunning and the use of real life magic sequences fit perfectly. The twists and turns that finally led to the dramatic finale was stunning. Another great tribute to the world of deception. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Insaisissables 2

Un trait bon film, j'adore la magie (dépêche toi "Les animaux fantastiques" #JKRowling) et le cinéma permet une liberté totale !
Au niveau du scénario, j'ai trouvé que ça tenait la route peut-être un peu prévisible.
De beaux effets spéciaux, mais il ne faut pas zoomer.
Des musiques sympathiques sans dénaturé le 1.
Des sons fins.
Au niveau du casting, la fille ne ser a rien.... [spoiler] (enfin ci mais toujour à la même chose #BlockBuster) [/spoiler] à part ça tout est bon
Amusé vous bien !!!
