Now You See Me 2 - The second franchise in the series lacks the fizz & the much needed wow factor.Unlike the first one which was an entertaining thriller with puzzling magic tricks & quick chases,this one is more of an emotional saga.The film unravels all the hidden mysteries,but in a sluggish pace which spoils the thrill to a certain extent.Performances are fine to say the best,not so great which is mainly due to the lazy writing.The Former Horsemen were good,But Jesse Eissenburg is repeating his usual act for the umpteenth time.Lizzy Caplan as the new one in the team did her part well.Daniel Radcliffe had a terrific intro,but the poor characterisation dumps him to the category of the usual-cliche'd villain.Supporting Cast was good.

Technically,It's Super good with fab vfx work & amazing dop. The cgi work during the card trick in the 1st half was superb,neatly done.Dop was also superb,Macau & London was captured effortlessly.The film has a solid story,with all the elements needed for a perfect thriller,this could have been a justifying sequel.Direction was pretty average,the pace set for this kind of a movie - definitely bad .The Build up towards the climax was good,but everything was seemingly predictable - anyone could easily guess it .The film has its moments for sure - some of the scenes were brilliant & really entertaining,But as a whole,This one is not completely satisfying.

Overall,Now You See Me 2 is an okay Film !

Verdict : Average !
Rating : 5.5/10
B.O Verdict : Don't know
