Now You See Me 2 does not maintain the quality of the original. The film has a script that is much more interested in impressing, it lacked a story. The action sequences are part of the visual "mess" created in the film.

The plot twists are satisfying in parts, the cast helps to give the film momentum, but the script is a bit messy.

The film overcomplicates things. It relies on extravagant set pieces to mask glaring plot holes, and its "meticulously planned" plot twists often feel contrived. The depiction of magic is rather fantastical, abandoning any semblance of realism or plausibility.

The plot and logic of "Now You See Me 2" are an incoherent mess, undermining the groundwork laid by the first film. The director’s attempt to craft a witty tone through rapid dialogue and quick cuts backfires, reducing the characters to juvenile chatterboxes and bogging down the pacing.

Apart from the thrilling chip heist, which matches the quality of the first film, the rest of the narrative is tedious. Many things are unexplained, and the chaotic storytelling diminish the film’s overall impact.

The plot is overly convoluted, with unnecessary flashbacks involving the police and a shallow closing monologue from Morgan Freeman. The surprise factor with the twins also feels underwhelming.

La segunda mejor película para ver en el avión
TTOT_Glory February 11, 2025
La película se complica demasiado. Se apoya en escenarios excesivos para disimular los huecos enormes que hay en la trama y esos giros “meticulosamente planeados” suelen verse forzados. La forma en la que se retrata la magia es totalmente fantasiosa y deja de lado cualquier intento de realismo o verosimilitud.

O filme complica demais as coisas. Ele se baseia em cenários extravagantes para mascarar buracos gritantes na trama, e suas reviravoltas "meticulosamente planejadas" muitas vezes parecem inventadas. A representação da magia é bastante fantástica, abandonando qualquer aparência de realismo ou plausibilidade.

O enredo e a lógica de Truque de Mestre: O 2º Ato são uma bagunça incoerente, minando as bases estabelecidas pelo primeiro filme. A tentativa do diretor de criar um tom espirituoso por meio de diálogos rápidos e cortes rápidos sai pela culatra, reduzindo os personagens a tagarelas juvenis e atrapalhando o ritmo.

La trama y la lógica de Nada es lo que parece 2 son un caos incoherente, que perjudica todo lo que había logrado la primera película. El intento del director de darle un tono ingenioso con diálogos rápidos y cortes fugaces no termina de funcionar y en vez de resultar dinámico, reduce a los personajes a charlatanes inmaduros y frena el ritmo de la película.

Tirando o emocionante roubo de fichas, que corresponde à qualidade do primeiro filme, o resto da narrativa é tedioso. Muitas coisas ficam inexplicáveis e a narrativa caótica diminui o impacto geral do filme.

Aparte del emocionante atraco al chip, que iguala la calidad de la primera película, el resto de la trama es tediosa. Quedan muchas historias abiertas y sin explicar y la caótica narración disminuye el impacto general de la película.
