Directed by Louis Leterrier and filmed on screenplay written by Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakinand Edward Ricourt, Now You See Me follows a strange sequence of events centered on weird show group of magicians named The Four Horsemen. Their show features neither rabbits out of top hat nor playing cards out of sleeves. There is something much more valued by audience in modern world than these old fashioned tricks, and The Four Horsemen have a proposition for this demand. Meet their tricks: a real bank robbery, a million dollars heist, a white collar blackmailing. How it's possible to be real? The question that demands some non-magic answers, at least such question has FBI – and these guys will play hard to get an answer. The stakes are raising when magic hunters get to know that weird magicians have some plan to shock the audience with their next incredibly risky yet audacious robbery has ever happened in the history of FBI, the robbery that probably will occupy number one in The Hall of Fame of Robberies, if such ever existed. Unfortunately, the attempts of FBI agents to discover what are really standing behind the magic tricks break on their suspiciousness to each other. Finally, as the day X comes closer they decide to ask for help from world most known magic mythbusters, with ambiguous reputation Thaddeus (played by Morgan Freeman). The greatest crime of the century is about to happen, however neither FBI agents, not Thaddeus are approached a step closer to unlock the puzzle of The Four Horsemen's riddle. What is this- a double-cross of one agent, Thaddeus' betrayal or … real magic? Besides the twisted plot we have great pleasure to watch an unparalleled play of actors. Besides abovementioned Morgan Freeman, Now You See Me stars some truly superior actors: Dave Franco (Warm Bodies, 21 Jump Street, Fright Night), Isla Fisher (Desperados, The Great Gatsby, Rise of the Guardians, Bachelorette) and Jesse Eisenberg (To Rome with Love, 30 Minutes or Less, The Social Network.)
