The Eye Chronicle: Now you see me thoughts

Now you see me, now you don't. The legend of the eye. What else?

To all who haven't watched the movie, i am warning you that this contain spoilers. 

-----------------------------

Three years after the hit jumping off roofs and showering their audiences with money, here comes a sequel to the phenomenal Now You See Me 1.

Now you see me 2 houses the original characters we loved from the very start excluding the high the high priestess card holder, Henley Reed, portrayed by Isla Fisher who had to give up the filming because of her pregnancy. The twin hypnotist of Meritt, portayed by Woody Harrelson and with the beautiful Liza Caplan joining the group as the 4th horsemen.

To all who enjoyed a lot the first one just like me, well we expected a lot from this sequel.

Yet, the very grandiose thought about magic from the first movie somehow lost its magnificence in its part 2. They didn't really pick up from where they left the last time, did they?

I expected more breath taking magic shows while the whole world and fbi crew is in pursuit. Probably more death defying spectacles. I expected a scene far from the lights of the city since the teaser shown at the end of part 1 was a breathe of fresh air from the usual hustle and bustle they had always found themselves unto.

Now You See Me 2 was tinged with the emotional Dylan Rhodes as he reminisced the death of his father whom he was really attached to and the main reason for the 30 year planned revenge. The mysterious Rhodes, was exposed in this movie, hence he has now become another apple of the eye of his former job, the FBI. 

When i first watched Now you see me, it actually made me believe in magic. It made me feel like i was actually there in the audience watching them live. I never wanted to miss a single detail because it houses so much information that could not complete the puzzle.

Now You See Me 2 is a good movie, entertaining at its level. However i know there's so much more for this movie.

You all must have been wondering just like me, where that bigger than all of us thingy went to. What happened to the magic behind everything else, more than just some silly little magic trick.

Another one, People must have been missing Henley in the scene like how Daniel Atlas missed her. I have my fingers crossed she'll be back if there be another chapter for this movie.

Nevertheless, i enjoyed the movie. But not as quite as the first one that i could no longer count how many times i have watched it on repeat and still enjoy every part of it.

Like how they said, part 2 had too much going on, it lost its muchness. 

Hoping it will come back.
