Review: Stupidity Prevails in ‘Now You See Me’

now-you-see-me

Magic meets Ocean’s Eleven is Now You See Me, but there is nothing magical in this curious but poorly written and directed crime thriller that only makes sense in the filmmakers’ heads.

Corrupt cops should know better than to beat a suspect to a pulp in the YouTube age.
