A SCREEN ZEALOTS REVIEW www.screenzealots.com
Most moviegoers weren’t clamoring for a follow-up to 2013’s smart magic heist thriller “Now You See Me,” but here’s one of the rare instances where the sequel is actually better than the original.

Rewatched in preparation for NOW YOU SEE ME: NOW YOU DON'T.
Rating: C-
Pretty much all my feelings regarding the original film resurfaced here, only amplified in a negative direction. This sequel suffers from the novelty factor wearing off, as the entertainment-driven narrative feels less captivating while the runtime is factually larger. It doubles down on the "nonsensicality" of the illusions, leaping from practical magic to straight-up C…
