This film essentially involves four different magicians, "J. Daniel Atlas" (Jesse Eisenberg), "Merritt McKinney" (Woody Harrelson), "Henley Reeves" (Isla Fisher) and "Jack Wilder" (Dave Franco) who each have their own special skill set. For example, Merritt is a hypnotist while Henley is an escape artist. In any case, although they each practice their trade in different parts of the country they are brought together by a special tarot card they find after one of their performances and out of curiosity they meet one another at the same address indicated on the card. The scene then shifts to one year later where they have all joined together to form a team known as "the Four Horsemen" which is sponsored by a multi-millionaire by the name of "Arthur Tressler" (Michael Caine). Yet even though they have become extremely popular what nobody realizes is that all four of them are on a special mission which is yet to be revealed. Now rather than reveal any more I will just say that this film had an interesting plot and a lot of special effects which made for some fairly good entertainment. At least at first. However, the plot became more convoluted the further the film progressed and completely collapsed at the very end. That being said, those who enjoy special effects might like this film but in my opinion it should have been much better and for that reason I have rated it accordingly. Average.
