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.

Tara Brady

Irish Times

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

Rated: 3/5

Chesapeake Family Magazine

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.

Rated: 2.5/5

Wendy Ide

Observer (UK)

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

Rated: 2/5

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

Kaplan is a jewel in the crown, putting in a terrific performance and more than holding her own in this light hearted, undemanding caper.

So how bad are you at portraying fully realized intelligent, thoughtful women who actually impact the plot in a way that doesn't depend on them being desperate or stupid? The producers/writers/director: Yes. "Oh Jack, did you think I was like the other girls?" is an actual line. It really must have hurt Caplan to say that, especially after being in Tina Fey's Mean Girls. Just plain insulting.

Filme: Truque de Mestre 2 Assistido: Set/24 Elenco: @jesseeisenbergunofficial @woodyharrelson @thelizzycaplan @davefranko @markruffalo @morganfreeman @daniel9340 @daiy_michael_caine Modelo: #ação #aventura Duração: 2h 9m Ano: 2016 Minha opinião: este filme é continuação direta do 1º filme, termina com a prisão de Thadeus (Freeman). Aqui temos a substituição da atriz Isla Fisher por Lizzy Caplan. Eu prefiro o sorriso de islã, mas Lizzy mandou bem. Aqui também temos Daniel Radcliffe como sendo o vilão do filme, mas é claro no final pode guardar surpresas. Arthur e seu filho Walter mais Thadeus se unem para se vingar dos 5. Assim se torna uma caçada atrás deles e sabotando seus expectaculos. Até resolvem depois de um tempo reunirem e armar o contra ataque. Mas para isso terão grandes desafios, como entrar em um complexos mais seguros do Mundo. E onde tem uma das melhores partes do filme. O filme tem bom CGI de como foi no 1º filme e efeitos especiais. E vários segredos são revelados. Após vencer seus inimigos agora vem a grande revelação de Dylan (Ruffalo) era o grande arquiteto por tudo, ou o OLHO. Porem que havia perdido a excencia da mágica. E que o verdadeiro OLHO foi repassado para Daniel, Merritt, Lizz e Jack. Gostei mais do 1º filme. Existe uma grande probalidade de sair o 3º filme e fechando esta triologia. Roteiro e enredo meio confuso, mas bons. Vale apena assistir? Sim, mas assista o 1º. Nota: 7

We need to see more movies like this released in theaters. I'm not saying that this is a great movie or even a really good movie, but it is a fun movie. There are plenty of fun moments, like the card passing scene and some interesting characters. My biggest gripe with this movie are the twists. When a movie has a big twist (i.e., The Sixth Sense), what makes it great is how everything comes full-circle. The problem with this twists in this movie is that they fall into two categories: 1. Predictable 2. Pointless/Dumb There was no real "Aha!" moment and the biggest twist really undermined the gravity of the first film. Ultimately, I had a lot of fun with this movie, mostly because I had to accept it for what it is. If you go into it hoping for a mind-blowing reveal or something even close to the first one, you'll be disappointed. Best Character: Lula Best Quote: "A magician's greatest strength is an empty fist." - Atlas Best Scene: The Card Pass Best Piece of Score: Sleight of Hand
