''It's so great to be back.''

Just an adjective, guys... F-A-B-U-L-O-U-S!

I'm giving it 5 in TOTAL. IN EVERY ASPECTS. Ah, lemme explain it as always.

First of all, you have to watch the first movie [Now You See Me, 2013] to enjoy this movie thoroughly. If you ask why, you cannot understand anything but again I'm saying, anything in the movie. You'll be losing plenty of inside jokes and the things going on between the characters etc. It is important. Also the first movie was pretty good. The movie is all about illusions, both made by illusionist and also the illusions which we made by our own. Like, misunderstandings in our daily life or our believes...

Just like in the first movie, there were many -even more than the first- unpredictable twists, mysteries and illusions. Actually, you feel like you are always missing something from the beginning of the movie to the end. [And probably, yes. You are.] It has so much fun for this kind of a smart movie, so it surprises me all the time.

Ahhh... Look at this poster... Beautifully designed.
I usually keep my interest and expectations for the sequels, but for this time, I started having high expectations for it. Also even much more expectations after seeing the cool trailer. What do you think has happened in the end?
It has satisfied them all, even gave me more than them.

At the beginning of the movie, I was kind of disappointed that Henley'i (Isla Fisher) wasn't in the cast, but when I have met Lula (Lizzy Caplan), she throw my disappointment right away. 
Pretty? Yes, she is.
Funny? Yes, she is.
Magician? Oh. Hell yea, she is.
I loved the chemistry between her and Daniel (Jesse Eisenberg) [I like this man. Ah.] which made me burst into laugh. Also, I support the romantic relationship raising between her and Jack (Dave Franco), so fun to watch. Especially, in the wallet stealing mini-challenges. Ehehe.
Ah, if you haven't seen or heard of it... There's an epic 'hidden card' scene which caused the movie's that part go viral in YouTube and other media sources. A must to watch scene at least if you wanna try to learn if you are interested for this movie.

That's it, guys... That's how you nail a good, nice, freaking aesthetic scene.
I'll be honest. I didn't like Dylan'ı (Mark Ruffalo). Not at all. However, he got me in this movie. I was like ''Wait, I didn't like you-'' to ''Oh, no. My sweet baby. Let's protect you forever.'' so... I think you've understood what I mean. 

Eventually, I was fond of the conflict going on between him and Thaddeus (Morgan Freeman) because even though it wasn't quite clear in the first movie, I think the scenarists well done the boundaries in their relationship. There were small, nice references as they were meaningful things going on in their common memories. Firstly, you'll experience the confusion at most but then you'll get your emotions mixed up at the end of the movie.



I didn't see something's coming. I would never thought seeing Daniel Radcliffe and a character like he is acting. Dude, it is literally Kinder Surprise. Saying ''Ta-da!!!'' in a cute while appearing all of a sudden... Unexpected stuffs as it is expected.
Therefore, if you haven't watched this movie yet... Why are you still reading this instead of going to watch it???

This is exactly explaining the whole thing going on the movie.

Extra info:
I was pleasant by seeing that a part of the movie is actually taken in Macau, which is Las Vegas of China. People who especially watch k-dramas or We Got Married (Korean reality variety show) can directly recognise this country just by seeing it. I mean, it is a top chosen honeymoon place for many Asians. The night view might mesmerise you in a glance.



Thus, I decided to end my post with there beautiful pictures from Macau.


My rating: 5
