Caper movie and magicians I'm in! That's what Maryellen said to me when we got to the theater. If you are intrigued by this as Maryellen then you are going to like this movie. Actually that was similar to my first thought, so I did enjoy it.
You have 4 bank robbing magicians, the Four Horsemen, who set up amazing heists while keeping 1 step ahead of the FBI. It has an amazing cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Morgan Freeman, Michael Caine, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franko... the list goes on. As you watch the movie more and more of the illusion is revealed. I think the best part of the movie is summed up in the movie. "Look closely, because the closer you think you are, the less you will actually see."
"First rule of magic, always be the smartest guy in the room." Are you the smartest guy in the room? Just when you think you figured it out, they are one step ahead of you.
