Review of Now You See Me 2 (2016) by Kai82 — 14 Dec 2019
They should have stopped after the first movie (I gave it a 10/10). There are ideas that work only ones and are wasted in a sequel. This is caused because you expect more and the sequel has to be upped to eleven.
I want to say it is not a bad movie but inferior to the first. The twist don't work that great and the final is a little bit unbelievable. I have no complains with the characters. There is some development that fells natural.
The visuals and soundtrack are also O.K. My overall complaint would be that the parts of the story are not well fitting and the character chemistry is a bit off. Maybe the first movie has driven my expectations to high (and my rating down).
My advice is watch and rate this movie for yourself if its available on TV. You should definitely watch the first one.
