Now You See Me (Again and Again)
I just recently watched the movie Now You See Me for the third time and I thought about how nice it would be to see it for the first time. Without any prior knowledge, I could fully experience all the twists and turns throughout the movie again. Now You See Me is a film that follows four magicians that come together to form a group act called the Four Horsemen after receiving mysterious instructions from an anonymous source. The group performs in showsh where they carry out stunts like robbing a bank from 5000 miles away and distributing the stolen money to the audience in a philanthropic fashion, which quickly draws the attention of the police. Throughout the rest of the movie, the Four Horsemen drag the police through a cat-and-mouse chase where they always stay several steps ahead of the police by using classic magic techniques like misdirection to deceive them. When I first watched the film many years ago I was mainly just fascinated by all the illusions. I didn't care at all
