Stellar cast pulls off 'Now You See Me' with ease BY STEVE SALLES Standard-Examiner movie critic I llusion on a stage is one thing. Creating it in a movie is something entirely different. On a live stage, you're left wondering: How in the world did they do that? In a movie, it's more like, well done, CGI department. Still, the sleight of hand in "Now You See Me" is mostly entertaining, specifically because of a stellar cast that includes Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Mark Ruffalo, Isla Fisher, Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg. A group of magicians are brought together by an unknown entity and become "The Four Horsemen." The illusions have already been created. All they have to do is perform the magic. They book their first appearance at Michael Caine's massively successful casino in Las Vegas. The idea is to rob a bank in Paris by teleporting a member of the audience into the bank vault and syphoning off millions of dollars through a magical air duct. The audience is aghast when the millions come floating down from the ceiling. Word of the event spreads like wildfire. The bank is baffled when it opens its doors to an empty vault. FBI agent Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo) is assigned the case, as is French Interpol detective Alma Vargas (Melanie Laurent). They consult with a magic debunker, Thaddeus 11 BARRY WETCHER/SMPSP/Summit Entertainment Jesse Eisenberg is J. Daniel Atlas in "Now You See Me." Bradley (Freeman), in hopes of figuring out how the trick was accomplished. And they don't have much time, since the Four Horsemen have already announced their next show in New Orleans during Mardi Gras. Who or what is behind this? And what is their end game? It can't be about the money, because they manage to give away vast amounts of it at each show. I must admit, the filmmakers have cleverly disguised the mysterious behind-the-scenes manipulator, and the frantic pace of the film keeps its two hour length from becoming tedious. So, I would put this in a definite "entertaining" category, even though not all of the smoke-and-mirror effects stand up to scrutiny as you rewind the film in your mind at the end. It's still a lot of fun, keeps you guessing and features some decent performances from a bunch of terrific actors — and it's not a science-fiction thriller about our doomed planet, so that's got to be worth something. |
