Critics Consensus

Now You See Me 2 packs in even more twists and turns than its predecessor, but in the end, it has even less hiding up its sleeve.

It's impossible to dislike NYSM2, a big blousy movie that is giddily in love with its own preposterousness.

2.5/5

Now You See Me 2 is marginally better than its underwhelming 2013 predecessor thanks to new cast additions, but still over-explains and under-delivers.

2/5

A needlessly complicated series of bluffs and double-bluffs, which is then unpicked during huge chunks of shouty, self-congratulatory exposition.

Without that element of novelty [from the first installment], but with some elements that maintain the narrative pulse, the sequel holds its own... [Full review in Spanish]

The smoke-and-mirrors story flies all over the place and never firmly lands anywhere.

Was a great film I kind of find it hilarious I’m just now writing my review of this film in 2025. 9 years later however I didn’t know you could write reviews via Fandango. Anyways great film definite watch and honestly hope they make it into a Trilogy definitely worth it.

Absurda e ilogica. La historia, o bueno, los trucos que se presentan parecen que son para tener entretenidos a niños de 5 años. Los personajes nuevos son estúpidos y los jinetes la neta no engañan a nadie.

Big. Silly. Noisy. An absolute and unapologetic popcorn movie. Perfect for a rainy day. Keep making them and I’ll keep watching them.

As a fan of the first Now You See Me, I went into this during a trilogy marathon having barely watched it before. Honestly? It’s a mixed bag. The movie goes bigger and bolder with higher stakes, flashier tricks, and a great ensemble cast. Casting Daniel Radcliffe as a magician villain is still pretty funny and surprisingly works. That said, the script isn’t as tight as the original and you can feel the cracks—plot holes, messy twists, and a bit too much going on. It’s kind of an unnecessary sequel, but somehow I’m still glad it exists.

It's not as good as the first but is still a fun ride if you enjoyed the previous entry.
