Language:
English
Cast: Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Isla Fisher, Woody
Harrelson, Dave Franco, Morgan Freeman
Story: A cat
and mouse like chase between a federal agent four illusionists, after they
commit bank heist and distribute the money among the audience.
Screenplay and
direction: The direction good and screenplay crisp except for the climax.
Performances:
Mark Ruffalo still looks great; all the
actors are good enough. Jesse Eisenberg looks and acts different but his
speaking style is too fast, very nerd like (I am not complaining) Isla Fisher, Woody
Harrelson and Morgan Freeman were good but Dave Franco should get some tips
from older brother (James Franco) as he could have been better.
Interesting: Morgan Freeman, while promoting the movie had fallen
asleep mid interview, then later made up for it by saying he was simply
updating his fb status via eyelids. J
USP: fast paced, thrilling, stylish, good chase
scenes and fight scenes etc.
Downside: the
plot I thin, implausible, stretched climax. Spoiler* whats the big deal about
the eye!
Verdict: The
pace and style drive this movie, it’s enteraining at first but then as the
illusions get more elaborate the movie becomes less entertaining, but overall
fun to watch. 7/10
