Audiences weren’t that interested in magic with The Incredible Burt Wonderstone, but director Louis Leterrier will be hoping for more from Now You See Me. Now the first four minutes of the movie have popped up online, so we can get a good taste for the film.
Here’s the synopsis: ‘Louis Letterier’s movie sees ‘The Four Horsemen, a magic super-group led by the charismatic ATLAS (Jesse Eisenberg), perform a pair of high-tech magic shows, first astonishing audiences by robbing a bank on another continent, and then exposing a white-collar criminal and funneling his millions into the audience members bank accounts.
‘FBI Special Agent DYLAN (Mark Ruffalo) is determined to make the magicians pay for their crimesand to stop them before they pull off what promises to be an even more audacious heist. But hes forced to partner with ALMA (Melanie Laurent), an Interpol detective about whom he is instantly suspicious. Out of desperation he turns to THADDEUS (Morgan Freeman), a famed magic debunker, who claims the bank heist was accomplished using disguises and video trickery. One thing Dylan and Alma agree on is that the Horsemen must have an outside point person, and that finding him (or her) is key to ending the magicians crime spree. Could it be Thaddeus? Or Alma? Or could it really be magic?
‘As pressure mounts and the world awaits the Horsemens spectacular final trick, Dylan and Alma race to find an answer. But it soon becomes painfully clear that staying one step ahead of these masters of illusion is beyond the skills of any one manor woman.’
The movie is released May 31st in the US and July 3rd in the UK.
A lot of people are very excited for The World’s End, the movie that reunites Nick Frost, Simon Pegg and director Edgar Wright and which completes their trilogy of films following Shaun Of The Dead and Hot Fuzz.
