The closer you look, the less you see – Daniel Atlas.
Hei,
do you believe in magic? Sometimes I do believe it, because I can feel
it. By the way, talking about magic, I just watched one great movie: Now
You See Me! The movie was not only good, I think it was really awesome,
they can twisted your mind with all the trick using the symbols of
horse and magician. But the secret about what they did actually was a
logic thing and they're really focused on the details for what will
happen on the next step.
The movie started about four street magicians who becoming the famous and greatest illusionists in the world, “The Four Horsemen” that was their group name. Every performances was incredible and their goal at the first show was to against corrupt business. After
each of their performance, they always spread the money from the sky
for their audience, that money were the stolen profits from an
organization. They were smart to distracted audience with the strategy using one step or three step ahead of the law.
What
they did in the movie was actually a good thing, because they did it
for a good reason, to help people who need money or else. But some
people, let's say police departmen, they considered that magicians show
as a criminal thing.
The
movie was a little bit like Robin Hood story; being a thief to help
people out there with a different way. But honeslt, I do agree for what
they did. :D
Anyway,
I love all the characters from this movie. First, I wanna be like Woody
Harrelson as Merritt McKinney, his strength points as a mentalism and
hypnotist. Can you imagine if you can read someone's mind? :D. Second, I
adore Dave Franco as Jack Wilder, I thought he has a strong character,
the youngest from others and he can’t do any certain magic things, but
one thing that I know, he’s a good THIEF, haha!

Third,
Jesse Eisenberg as Daniel Atlas. He’s a Classic Magician and quite
expert in manipulation also. Last but not least, we have the beauty and
the smartest one, Isla Fisher as Henly Reeves, her acting was really
cool and she become a good distraction in every scenes.

The
very last, this is the man behind all of the performances, operations,
and also a really really really good director from the 4 magician's
performance during three missions to against the corrupt and also for
the revenge itself, Mark Ruffalo as Dylan Rhodes. I don’t know how could
he prepared all the details, even for me who have a good organizing
skill but I think I still need him to be my master using his strategies.
HAHA.

And, after the shows, I realized that the movie teach me something and the lessons are really close to us in daily life:
KARMA DOES EXIST
Some people won't believe it, but some people do. Just be nice and everyone will loves you as well. And this movie about revenge from Dylan to someone who betrayed his father long years ago. He was trying to prove that Lionel Shrine is a legend and worth to be remebered.
FAITH CAN moves the Mountain.
THE CLOSER YOU LOOK, THE LESS YOU SEE!
That's the basic rule from magician, you need to understand that word carefully, maybe you don't understand now, but someday you WILL.
Every
scene will makes you think twice and guess about who’s the man behind
their performances and how they could set up all the details plus
they’ll tell you a secret of magician at the end! Curious? Score 9 for this movie. Hope you enjoy the review and just watch now.
