This was just a very boring and difficult to follow film. Lots of it didn't make sense, and if it wasn't for the ending, I would have given it 1/10. Lizzy Kaplan is a good actress but her role was over sexualised, and not at all believable. Overall I did not particularly enjoy this film.

2013's Now You See Me was a glossy cross-genre movie in which a group of four stage magicians - the Horsemen - created assorted illusions the purpose of which, it transpired, was to remove money from corrupt big business and return it, Robin Hood-style - to those from whom it has been stolen.This sequel reunites the cast (with the exception of Isla Fisher, whose token female place is taken by Lizzie Caplan), with the addition of Daniel Radcliffe, and this time they are on the defensive as things go somewhat awry. They have to figure out how to steal a high-tech bit of kit from a computer company, and various magic techniques are brought to bear in a rather improbable but very enjoyable robbery caper.The whole thing is rather improbable, to be frank, but that didn't spoil it: it's quite clever, and it's great fun, and that was quite sufficient to enable me to suspend my disbelief, especially throughout the rather silly but hugely enjoyable finale (they explained how the three card monte worked, but they never explained how Jesse Eisenberg did his disappearance).The cast are all fine - even Radcliffe, who seldom impresses me as an actor, is OK. The Horsemen work well as an ensemble, and there are some revelations which refer back to the first film, although you don't have to have seen it in order to appreciate them.It's not quite as good as its predecessor, but it's still great fun.

If you have any intelligence at all, you will, not only by seeing on IMDB page it says "COMEDY", but also, find by watching the film that is is a PARODY. For instance, there's (the actor of) Harry Potter that doesn't believe in magic and believes in science instead.The issue is though that in my opinion, FIRSTLY it should've tried even harder to make things go overboard, with all the effects and stuff. I mean the CGI is exactly the point to the parody -- but people also mistook it for a serious film because the film doesn't go crazy enough with it. SECONDLY, it's should've parodied all the characters heavier. The characters clearly are meant for parody as well but they don't strike you like that hard enough leaving the experience a little blunt.Don't skip the film just because unintelligent kids here couldn't figure out it's a parody.Overall, it's decent entertainment if you understand you are watching a comedy (parody), not a serious mystery film which it clearly doesn't claim to be.

I liked the first one. It was enjoyable, though it wasn't a great movie, and there's a reason it didn't win an Oscar. This sequel is just plain bad. It takes everything enjoyable about the first one, and removes them. For some reason they thought the stuff that didn't work as well as other parts was the stuff people wanted to see, so more of the nonsense was added. Kind of boring, but not enough so to nap through.
