More than cool, more than routine, not editing

"Now You See Me 2", ★★★, 6 points. The plot is a bit procrastinated, and I don't know why the screenwriter wants to make every character a chatter. The details are not very good. Many important details are passed by, which makes some places in the back look very confusing. This is the editing problem. The scene is cool enough and gorgeous, which is one of the selling points of this series. Another selling point is the deliberately created reversal, first putting the protagonists in crisis, and finally reversing, telling you that this is actually a big game played by the protagonists. Although I know it's a routine, I still enjoy it when I watch it. Really nice.
