Magic, I don't know if it is really declining like a circus, or it is just because there are too many entertainment activities, so the media does not report much, and the TV does not repeat the glory of magic in the past. This art gradually faded out of people's vision until The appearance of "Now You See Me" makes people feel that magic can also be used in this way, combined with the group IQ crime like the "Eleven Arhats" series, plus the CGI effect, it is quite cool and exciting
After the success of the first generation at the box office, the second generation has also stepped up production, but the director has been replaced by Zhu Haowei, which is now... more hanging. Although his "Dancing Out of My Life" series is good in terms of visual effects, it can be seen from "Special Forces 2" that his storytelling ability is very problematic, a bit similar to Zach Snyder when he first came into contact with superhero movies. Germany, but obviously the latter's accomplishments on the screen are much stronger
The end of the first movie is already a complete one, like the princess and the prince in the fairy tale. As for whether there is a cold and quarrel in the future, there is no need to investigate. If the second part asks them to come out again, it will be difficult to find a suitable reason, and the production team chose a very poor path to smash the secret realm of the eyes of the sky that the generation pursued, and let the four knights have a lot of hard work. The bitter pursuit has become a joke... Since the creation of the world view is so unconcerned, the far-fetched magic behind it is justified, such as using lights to spell out SLEEP similar to Morse code to hypnotize (this will not be a problem if it is made into one question). It must be solved, the hypnosis in such a short time is so far-fetched that grandma doesn't even recognize it), and 1VS10 can't be beaten. The most pitiful thing is that the magic uses too (too is to "randomly" select the "audience" at the scene, and the selected person is actually an assistant), there is no explanation for how people turn into water, etc., too much pursuit of the performance on the screen , it doesn't matter what the authenticity is (of course, I didn't say how it turned into a pile of banknotes in the first generation), and even the change in the relationship between the characters is very abrupt. Look how stiff the "Hulk" performance is in this... How does this script work?
In general, the second part of the movie has a lot of flaws in the details. There are two magic tricks in the final battle, which are very common. They also use support. The magic that uses support is the least favorite. Only the raindrop magic has a strong ornamental. But a generation of directors is still a producer, and Zhu Haowei is also good at making MVs. The film has a smooth rhythm and gorgeous effects. The passing of the card is also quite amazing (but the director has gone too far, and the same skills are repeatedly shown), the advantages and disadvantages are obvious.
Overall rating: 3.3/5.0 (there are many loopholes, the production team does not seem to plan to round it)
Entertainment Index: 3.8/5.0 (although the quality is in a hurry, it does not prevent it from being used for entertainment)
Box office performance: The first film earned a global box office of 351.72 million with an investment of 75 million, but the word of mouth is a little bit bad. Speaking of the director of the first film, it is quite miserable. His "Battle of the Gods" exchanged 125 million for 493.21 million in the world, which is also a bit of a bad reputation. As a result, "Now You See Me 2" and "Wrath of the Gods" are no longer directors... So what about the box office after changing directors? "Wrath of the Gods" got a bad box office of 305.27 million at a cost of 150 million, and "Now You See Me 2" said that it will make a trilogy and attaches great importance to the Chinese market, and invited Jay Chou to fight The cost of a relatively large bottle of soy sauce has also increased to 90 million. However, the North American box office in the first week was 22.38 million, which was about 7 million less than the first one. In the end, the North American box office was only 65.07 million, nearly half less than the first. , if it weren't for the second Chinese film that provided a box office of up to 97.11 million, this movie would not even be recognized by my grandmother. In the end, the global box office was only 334.9 million. Don't forget that the Chinese box office share is much smaller than that of North America, that is It is said that the cost of the second part has increased, and the income has decreased, and then there is no news of "Now You See Me 3" that was vigorously promoted before.
