ALL-TIME CLASSIC MOVIE FAVOURITES – NOW YOU SEE ME (2013)

 

“Now You See Me” is a Mystery Crime Thriller, screenplay written by Ed Solomon, Boaz Yakin and Edward Ricourt and Directed by Louis Leterrier.

 

The story begins when four magicians, J. Daniel Atlas (Jesse Eisenberg), Merritt McKinney (Woody Harrelson), Henley Reeves (Isla Fisher) and Jack Wilder (Dave Franco), each answer a mysterious summons, and all arrive at an obscure address where they find hidden secrets.

One year later, they are big time stage illusionists, the Four Horsemen, and they climax their sell-out Las Vegas show by apparently robbing a Paris bank.

When it turns out that the bank actually had been robbed, F.B.I. Agent Dylan Rhodes (Mark Ruffalo) and Interpol Agent Alma Dray (Mélanie Laurent) are assigned to the case to figure out how they did it.

However the great truth in this puzzle is that the closer you look, the less you see, and deeply embroiled in the mystery for very different reasons are Thaddeus Bradley (Morgan Freeman) Arthur Tressler (Michael Caine) and Agent Fuller (Michael J. Kelly).
