"That's very nice, very well-polished...."
This marriage of illusionists and heist movie is very entertaining. The delivery is slick and very fast-paced, and the combination of illusions and reveals keeps the movie flowing very well. The eclectic cast members are all extremely watchable, from the Four Horsemen (Jesse Eisenberg, Isla Fisher, Woody Harrelson and Dave Franco all performing and delivering well in contrasting roles) to a spritely Michael Caine and the culture-clash detectives pairing of Mark Ruffalo and Melanie Laurent. The dialogue is engaging, the interesting and kinetic camerawork brings scenes to life, and only the open ending that smacks of sequel-baiting (which would actually be welcome) could be a little more satisfying.
