7/10
Pretty good.. Not as good as the first though
24 June 2016
Now you see me 2 is not as good as the first one, which is typical for a sequel. But now you see me 2 is not one of those terrible sequels. For one thing I really enjoyed the acting, I thought that the acting was very well done by every cast member, and Lizzy Caplan is a good addition to the horsemen, her positive energy and witty humor works well with the film. Mark Ruffalo was alright in this one, and in my opinion he wasn't as good here as in the first one. OK, I enjoyed Woody Harrelson and his character, but his evil twin brother was just a big mistake and I really think the character would've been better off by being played by a different actor, I also thought the twin brother was just really annoying and purposefully weird and I thought his character was just crap. Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine have really strong presences in this movie and they really give great performances. Daniel Radcliffe is alright, not quite as good as I thought he would be, but still not terrible or bad. And last but not least, there is Dave Franco, the sexy smoldering Dave Franco...... He is great here, he is one of my favorite things about this film. The action is good, not as great or often as in the original movie, but what's here is still sufficient. I think now you see me 2 wraps up nicely too, Morgan freeman ends it in one of his great famous monologues, and I thought the ending was good. 7/10 for Now you see me 2.
