Guilty Pleasures #38 - Sequel Month - Now You See Me 2

Now You See Me was my first Guilty Pleasures review and of course in June of last year a sequel came out. Do I like it as much as I did the first one, in many ways, actually kinda more but I will explain that later.

Now You See Me was a dumb movie, dumb but extremely fun to watch because of character dynamics and spectacle. Now You See Me 2 was not as successful either critically or commercially as the original. So, what does the sequel have in store? Let’s take a look

Guilty Pleasures #1 Now you see me

I love this movie! There’s a first for this blog. Now You See Me is magic on the big screen, and its magic that doesn't make you fall asleep (unlike those crappy magicians on <insert country here>’s Got Talent. But being on the big screen does kind of hamper its believability and this movie's plot is so full of holes it’s almost Swiss cheese. I like Swiss cheese (I think) and I like this movie, but let’s tear it apart anyway. I want you to watch this movie, so I’ll try and be light on the spoilers, but since I’m reviewing it mostly from a plot standpoint, full spoilers ahead.
