such an abysmal movie and sequel. Which sucks because I love the actors and I love all things magic.

I just fucking hate how they seem to have real magic, rather than being very clever magicians. At least with "The Prestige" (can't believe I'm comparing these two) they give a really satisfying explanation for how one version of the trick is done, then present the audience with an even more interesting question on whether or not it should be done.

This movie wants the audience to think they are magicians doing tricks when in reality none of that shit is possible and only real magic would explain it.

Stupid, stupid, stupid all around.

those movies are stupid but not stupid in that special kind of way that makes them good. they're just normal stupid.

if that makes sense... i don't know how to explain it.

And on top of all that they made a sequel and DIDN'T name it "Now You Don't". Unforgivable.
