‘Now You See Me, Now You Don’t’: More Robin Hood Magical Tricks

Cinematic cotton candy that melts from the mind, but so did the first two movies which grossed $700 million to lukewarm reviews, which is a kind of magic trick.

The third entry in the magician-movie franchise, “Now You See Me: Now You Don’t,” reintroduces the Four Horsemen. They’re a quartet of world-class magicians, who, like the Justice League—but with magic tricks as their superpowers—combat villains, foil  plots, and provide humanitarian aid, but on a smaller scale. But not that much smaller. The latest installment has them join forces with a new, younger, conjuror-crew to appeal to the younger generations.
