Chris Stuckmann reviews Now You See Me 2, starring Jesse Eisenberg, Mark Ruffalo, Woody Harrelson, Dave Franco, Daniel Radcliffe, Lizzy Caplan, Jay Chou, Sanaa Lathan, Michael Caine, Morgan Freeman. Directed by Jon M. Chu.
The amount of times I've seen the comment "it should be called Now You Don't" is CRAZY. STOP, WE GET IT.
I really think they should have called it Now You Don't
I really think you ain't funny
At first I thought you understood us but I know.....now you don't
I too think it should be called Now You Don't. I also think Eminem is extremely overrated.
TheShockingShady Pffff so serious, boring!
They missed a golden opportunity by not calling this "Now You Don't"
NAILED IT
+Who Dat Ninja you're hilarious lol.. 25 points awarded
On the top you go
I was thinking the something, actually was expected the sequel to be called that.
Tristan Clement thanks my friend
At least it isn't called "Now you see me too"
lol I would bet that was on the table. Somewhere there is a poster they made up for that.
Now you see me again with a vengeance
+
That actually would be alright
Hmmm, Daniel Radcliffe and magic, sounds promising lol
lmfao
Harry Potter playing the villain in a magician movie. That is awesome.
John Cena stars in this movie but you can't see him
See more of him there than you see CM Punk at UFC though.
See nah
Lol
Top ten comments of all time
But his time is now
This is why I loved The Prestige. Every single magic trick in that movie could be explained either by the movie itself or by the viewer, since the movie gives enough clues for you to understand how they do each trick. I hate movies that show u tricks and then expects you to think "well it's a movie. That's how they did it."
that was a real magic movie really well made
@@tusharkadian of course, Nolan made it.
Thats a masterpiece of a movie
Even when the tricks were technically not really possible, they were believable.
I really need this Bob Ross shirt.
so i wasn't the only one xD
Does it come in Titanium Hwite?
me too.
or cobalt blue?
me too!"
I think a blue Egyptian God should make these four horsemen "more powerful"
Nice
As long as Jesse Eisenberg doesn't have to spin a bunch of metal around for like 20 minutes, I'm in.
+Tim Perry JOLLY RANCHERS!!!
I understood that reference!
BCUZ U FOLLOW BLIND LEADUHS
This movie should've been called "Now You Don't"
BRILLIANT
The reason they didn't is because they want to make part 3 and part 4 and so on. Garbage like this makes money.
***** Ok then, #3 can be called "The Final Act" and #4 can be "Encore"
12 minutes too late
They see the general population as idiots so they have to put the same name or "People won't know it's a sequel to the first one".
hey Chris you might of read this comment on another one of your videos but i would love it if you did a review of all of nolans movies before his next one comes out, like you did with fincher and Spielberg
Good idea!
yes I need to know what he thinks of Prestige
+Donaldo Trumpiwi the prestige and memento are some of my favourite films
I was thinking the exact same thing. I would really like him to review Memento, The Prestige and Inception (he did that before but I would like to hear his thoughts on the film as he sees it today). And maybe Following too?
Hope he reviews films by Scorsese and Innaritu, too.
How they missed "Now You Don't" as their film title I just don't know how that was possible.
XD
I remember reading somewhere that, the title you suggested was suggested but someone high up thought that the average movie go-er wouldn't make the connection between the two and Now You See Me 2, Now You Don't was to long of a title.
+Epicawsomesocks No, the title would _just_ be Now You Don't. So if you buy them both, it would be Now You See Me and Now You Don't.
It was originally supposed to be Now You See Me: Now You Don't. and then it was changed to Now You See Me: The Second Act. and now it became Now You See Me 2
And the third film could have been called: Now you see me, Now you don't. But I guarantee if they make a third one, it's going to be called. The Magician Rises.
"Self-aware of itself"
As opposed to self-aware of others...?
Grow up.
As opposed to self aware of its other self. You don't want to go down that rabbit-hole.
Lol ya grow up you child pointing out people's grammatical errors like that, seriously so immature.
+SikeSplitter yes it's immature and unnecessary to correct someone on their grammar. Get off your high horse.
Michelle Leonard It's unnecessary but I wouldn't call it immature. You don't see children or immature adults going around correcting people on their grammar, they're the ones with the bad grammar.
Mark Ruffallo nailed it for me!
same here
He's a carpenter on the side?
Mark Ruffalo in this movie could nail me, 'cause dayum.
Totally. He was so fucking amazing
I didnt see Now You See Me, and was exposed to the second movie in the theater... I got to say, I've never have had so much fun with a movie... I think "guilty pleasure" is probably the best way to describe it.
Your Morgan Freeman impression actually made me choke. Your little joke almost killed me...
Do it again!
Your Morgan Freeman impression was hilarious!😂
I thought the movie was alright. I enjoyed it.
This movie should've been called "Zod's snapped neck"
I still don't get the meme.
But the real question we're all wondering... Did the four horsemen really think a couple magic tricks could fool the world's greatest detective?
Only 20 minutes to write!
Please be considerate, his wife might read your comment and be really sad about it and thats where the line is drawn... then we get another 20 minutes of whining on camera
Let it go guys.
Just go watch the prestige, it's my favorite magic movie
If you wanna watch a good magician film just watch The Prestige and thank me later
If I may suggest The Illusionist with Edward Norton as well... Phenomenal movie. Like The Prestige but a little less dark. Love them both though
any other movies like those you would recommend?
@@johnlefkowitz2972 Well, it has Christopher Nolan and David Bowie which automatically made it good
going into this movie with low expectations ,i came out really entertained ,despite this movie having some unbelievable magic but this movie also has character development and not just trying to repeat the first movie again ,in the end this movie just did what the first one did for me that is entertain me.
I need that Bob Ross shirt. Now
me2.
"You can watch this movie, it's a totally watchable movie." -- Chris
Great, I was worried that every time I tried to watch it, it'd disappear, or that if I watched it, I'd be cursed like in The Ring. ;)
I honestly had to fricken idea what was even going on in this movie, but I loved it.
That's how they conned us, and it was great!
How is no one talking about his AMAZING Morgan Freeman Impression?
Someone is.(You)
+PauLtus B touché
Hello Spider how are u Ita red hood 2343
I can't imagine Daniel Radcliffe as a wizard at all...
Alaka-screwyou updiassicus!
I can because he was a PHENOMENAL wizard entirely so! I know your comment is sarcasm but just giving credit where it’s due!
I really like Now You See Me
You were the perfect person to review this for me. I thought the first movie was going to be really dumb, but when I eventually watched it I had a good time. It wasn't a great or memorable movie, but it did its job in entertaining me. So when I saw the trailers for the sequel I thought "well, it looks pretty dumb but I thought that about the first movie too". You saved me $10 on this.
It is like the movie is talking to itself.
"Now you see me~"
"Yeah, now you see me, 2."
Daniel radcliffe: Goddamnit! I should have stayed in Hogwarts
The first movie was absolutely mind blowing. Especially the ending omg. But I’m thinking about watching the second one
did u already?
I really hope you did. Just like in the first one. They conned us all, and it was great!
Can we just quickly appreciate how surprisingly good Chris' Morgan Freeman-impression was?
I loved "Now you see me" im looking forward to watching this no matter what anybody says lol
miguel medina well, what did you think?
Same here, I liked sequel
I really enjoyed this film and it’s a great sequel that needs much love and attention to it and this movie kept my mind racing and this movie left questions without answers but I find this movie brilliant and I hope we can get a third installment soon.
😬
We are with Rueben Fleischer directing (Zombieland 1&2, Gangster Squad, 30 Minutes or Less, Venom, and Uncharted)
What questions did you have in mind?
I'm just disappointed they didn't call it "Now You Don't"
But did the Four Horseman realy think a few magic tricks could fool the worlds greatest detective.....
lmao cut him some slack
They didn't turn into money in the first film's finale, they made their escape on the previous platform and a set of holograms appeared to run off of the edge of the building while they were already escaping across the rooftops...
I sometimes feel like I take movies too seriously and I don't acknowledge sometimes when it's not supposed to be real
possibly why I didn't love Civil War
makes sense
You probably didn't like it because Cap's side didn't make a lot of sense (morally and politically). It's what got me. Winter Soldier was loads better.
+Marti Crazi So not wanting to give yourself up to an agency or corporation because they aren't very trustworthy and might prevent you from doing and making the right call, doesn't make sense? Eh whatever.
Yeah I'm with you, Marti. I went in to that movie _ready_ to side with Cap because intuitively I felt like they had a lot going for them.
But the film itself just did such a gods awful job of presenting that argument. It was just _impossible_ to agree with him.
No No Not wanting to give yourself up to an agency because they might prevent you from interfering where you are not wanted doesn't make sense. This whole "trustworthiness" thing only applies in established entities (HYDRA was revealed to be in SHIELD before Cap knocked those helicarriers out of the sky in CA:TWS). The Accords are too new for you to immediately assume the worse and go rogue.
Also: after _levitating_ then _dropping_ Sokovia out of the sky, a sovereign nation should have agency to decide if it can afford/rationalize superhuman "help." Cap just came off as a self-righteous American who wants to impose his particular brand of justice when/where he wants with no accountability.
I thought the first one was awful! And no Isla Fisher.. Damn!!
I agree. Isla was the only reason to watch the first movie, lovely woman.
Your Morgan Freeman impersonation is fucking amazing man.
10/10 on Morgan Freeman Impression
The main issue I have with this film is exactly what I had an issue with in the first film, and that is that the line between the real stuff and supernatural stuff that happens is extremely blurred, at some points they do something involving magic that they later explain how they did it like a normal magician, but then other times they, like Chris said, jump off a building and turn into playing cards. And it just leaves you going "wait so does magic actually exist in this world or not?" If they gave an explanation for how they did it, or hell even revealed that yes magic does exist I could forgive it a little, but they never do so its just a big head scratcher. These movies could've seriously benefited if they just set up their world and stayed within the confines of it instead of setting it up and breaking the rules later on just for the convenience of the plot.
I'd love to see your reviews of Love & Friendship and The Lobster!
The first one is honestly one of my favorite movies ever. Hope this one doesn't disappoint too much.
😬
I don't know if anybody has thought of it, but it would have been very clever if they called this 'Now You Don't'!
yeah, nobody has thought of it yet.
read every other comment and you'll figure out if anybody thought of it
I think there may be three people in Ethopia who didn't think of that.
I think that's what they were going to call it during pre-production but Hollywood execs are notoriously scared of clever names because people are dumb and box-office numbers would decrease. Now You See Me 2 is a boring name but it instantly tells you what it is
lesryglrhfohser I was being sarcastic....
Damn Daniel, back at it again with the magic related movies.
Will you ever review Fateful Findings by Neil Breen for a Hilariousity Review?
YMS already did it, why do you care to see another?
Jacob Ryan Harris
I like hearing different reviewers talk about the same movie sometimes. One will pick up on something that the other either didn't see or simply didn't discuss. Why does it matter if one reviewer already discussed a movie, anyway? Technically Nyx Fears talked about Fateful Findings months before YMS did, and that didn't stop him from making his own review, and RLM reviewed Double Down 2005 way before YMS mentioned it in his video.
Nope Done I understand. But YMS literally released like a week ago. Making one now would just be jumping on a bandwagon
Jacob Ryan Harris
I didn't demand that Chris make his next Hilariousity Review be about Fateful Findings or any of Neil Breen's other movies. I just asked if he would do it. He could do one months or years from now, or never for all I care.
Fanboy Flicks is pretty much working on that right now
jesse eisenberg was been cured of autism in this film
Oh the irony...
Was been?
Have you was been cured yet?
So poor grammar is a sign of autism now?
DysnomiaFilms Yes, yes it is.
just edit your comment already so the grammar nazi won't get likes for his shit anymore
I've never been so early for one of your videos😂
+Minotux no, I was just saying I've never been so early for one of his videos
All disappearance of characters on Now you see me 1 & 2 is purposedfully "magical" and unexplained. That's maybe why the title is "Now you see me" instead of "Now you see me, Now you don't" or the 2nd movie title being "Now you don't".
Lousy movie, yet it stills scores higher on rotten tomatoes that Warcraft: The Beginning...tsk.
Well the scores on RT or Metacritic for Warcraft are pure bogus. I don't know why, but they are simply half of what the movie actually deserves. It bet that movie will settle on 7.6 for user scores on IMDB once it's been released everywhere.
+karlzone2 I watched it and while it's not awful but its a little too geared to the fans and not. New watchers
dragonicbeast
I don't disagree. A lot of the plot explanations are "blink and you'll miss it". It's a better movie for fans, but a perfectly fine movie regardless. It could have used half an hour more.
Warcraft is garbage.
I really liked the movie 1 and 2. I don’t know why. I mean I love story driven movies and all but this was super entertaining for me
Eisenberg looks terrible with that haircut.
Does he even have hair??😂😂😂
Hey Chris, have you thought of looking into the MTV Scream series? It's, to me, kinda how you described Step Up 3. Better than it has any right to be. And I say that as a hardcore Scream fan.
The sequel that we all so desperately wanted
AHHHHHH!!! Dude, Been watching a lot of Bob Ross Yesterday. Great Review Dude.
Your shirt. Your shirt.
Are there any more big fans of Chris and also Twin Peaks series? I wonder what would be Crises thoughts on Twin Peaks.
I 100% get your points but I still loved the movie
Holy smokes, with that lighting you got, it makes your blu ray collection look extra amazing.
Why does Chris have blue under his eyes?
Yay. Now I'm not going to unsee that. lol
+sivad parks haha
I go to the local grocery store each week and always hit up the discount section of the video counter. Then when I get home I always look up the reviews of what ever dvd I picked up. Yours are the only ones I watch (unless you didn't review a specific film). And the reviews make a difference. I'm able to get myself into the right frame of mind for each film. Should I expect a serious experience or just grab the popcorn and park myself for a couple of hours?
I appreciate that I can do that. I've been watching your vids for a few years now and have'nt been disappointed yet.
the movie is amazing. the plot was the best. I'm dissapointed by ur review
thank you
+Niall Brooks the entire plot was unpredictable
The Morgan Freeman thing was hilarious, Chris.
Bob Ross ... RUINED
looking forward for the rant, Chris!
just got back from seeing it and it was alot of fun. same problems that I had with the 1st one,ie impossible tricks that will not and can not be explained, but if u just take it for what it is, you'll have a good time. it's funny, I think Lizzy is a step up from Isla as far as comic timing goes, and I hated Woody's twin brother for half the movie but then he grew on me. B-
I liked this movie as much as the first one, and no I don't think they took themselves so seriously, it was fun.
I HATED the first movie. I absolutely can't stand CGI magic when there is people that can ACTUALLY DO MAGIC without cheating. Even The Prestige which used crazy fantasy magic just seemed better. Also Jesse Eisenberg once again plays a person I just want to punch in the face. I'm glad that this movie sucks.
lol yeah it's for "specifically" dumb 3 year olds. It's like "look I can pull a monster truck out of my hat, now I'll wave my hand and make it rain
kittens and puppies covered in ice-cream." It's like are you a magician or f-ing god? Dr. Strange jealous much?
+mechasentai not really
+Inconsistent Content
Well I must bow down to your unbelievably well articulated counter arguments.
+mechasentai much appreciated
Inconsistent Content I like you.
That Bob Ross shirt doe
I found it entertaining
that was an amazing morgan freeman impression
The first "Now You See Me" is one of the worst movies of the decade.
I disagree. I think it's one of the most underrated of the decade.
+Jack Jansen It's a decent film but the twist ending is so fucking stupid.
+Jack Jansen I disagree. I think it's the most mediocre.
+Living Abstraction I agree, after the ending I had to dub it one of the worst movies I've ever seen.
Bored the hell out of me, Doody.
Now you see me 2 as a title is actually pretty witty. It could be word play to sound like Now You See Me Too, the Eye being the subject because now we DID see who the eye was whilst the eye have seen the four horsemen from the start.
I loved that Morgan Freeman impression.
swng it was the worst
Bob Ross is rocking those "pretty little trees. "
God this movie was terrible. A boring, confusing, convoluted, mess of a movie. With Michael Caine as the villain again Daniel Radcliffe does absolutely nothing! Pointless character, remove him and nothing would change.
is that a spoiler lol?
It isn't.
Except for the reason Daniel Caine is back? And the plot for the movie? And the huge end sequence? And a good chunk of the movies run time?
Still better than Apocalypse
'How did they do that?'
'That's a good question...I'm Morgan Freeman.'
Heh :D
the first one sucked so much.
yes it was terrible, idk why they made a 2nd one at all
first one made 350 million off a 75 million dollar budget. that's basically the reason why shitty movies get sequels.
I didnt hate it, but it wasnt a good movie. It was what it was supposed to be, dumb fun and cheap thrills.
As a magician I loved both. Second one coulda been better :/ but still fun
Really? As a magician I didn't like Now you see me 1 or 2. So many tricks they do in this movie aren't even possible which I did find super annoying. Like putting some one to sleep by spinning a pizza box with the word sleep written on it, really?!! Now The Prestige and The Illusionist, those are good movies!
Well, here we are. Now you see me 3 is confirmed.
why the fuck wasn't this movie called Now you don't
The real magic is that Bob Ross T-shirt ✨🎨
Damn it Stuckman! You're ruinning my excitement!
then you shouldn't have watched
Live your own life.
Dude, he's just nitpicking.
+Inconsistent Content If you think so, compare his review to that of Jeremy Jahns and Schmoes Know. They're all pretty much in agreement here.
+Tim Walden yeah I saw all of them and frankly, it seemed like they didn't get it... I know that sound odd and possibly arrogant, but this movie is not that bad. It has its problems but overall it pretty fun.
I wanted to focus on the review but your t-shirt made me want to paint some happy little clouds :P
Is not as good as the first one because the first one is not good at all!
opinions...I thought it was good
+Chris Cinema of course Man Just messing with you
I agree
What the hell kinda sense does that comment make? The movie's not as good as the 1st one BeCause the 1st one wasn't good? What....?
The only way that would even make a tiny bit of sense, is if all sequels to the originals were not as good as the originals, like universally.l
Your comment is as useless as you are.The first one was hella good.
I actually like the second one a little bit better😥I am a fan of both movies, I wasn't expecting Oscar worthy it both films are just simple, those movies you can not think about aand waste time on and enjoy
I thought the first movie took it self to seriously....
Its really a balance between taking it self serous and making things plausible.. Sharknado for example.. the level of serius is like 0%... so the plausibility needs to be the same. Same with paraya 3DD.. well that still sucks.. sorry.
But Now you se me is like 30-40% serius... but its only like 10% plausible. Its to much of a gap.
For real, the entire mark ruffalo story arc took itself incredibly seriously and then at the end literally made no sense because he was their leader all along? Definitely won't be seeing the second one. I'll go watch Prestige again
Yea... there was some level of self awarnes... but it was quite a bit to little.. The story was also way pretentius. Not like Piraya 3DD that... well.. the pretentuness stopped when they came to the title.
+matsv201 but not like Oscar worthy pretentious, pretentious without having anything to back it up haha
paraya?
www.imdb.com/title/tt1714203/
Water certified strippers....
"pretentious without having anything to back"
Well... yea... but.. well to some extent is it true for some oscarswinners as well, at least the last years... is really more about beeing pretentious than anything else..
Great review as always, and I couldn't help but to notice your Bob Ross T-shirt :) .
I refuse to see any movie with Jesse Eisenberg after his awful performance in the batman v superman movie
Jesse eisenberg wasn't bad in bvs it was just that he wasn't the lex people expected
his performance for bvs was amazing. the problem is the written characteristic of lex luthor isnt the same with people expectation. its more to joker type with no development
ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding ding dong
I don't really blame him I blame the script. The end result would have been the same regardless of the actor.
+fury I disagree. I find it hard to believe that ding ding ding was in the script.
anyone else who just kept staring at that fancy T-shirt throughout this video?
Lizzy Caplan was way better than Isla Fisher
OMG CHRIS THAT BOB ROSS SHIRT MADE MY DAY
Notification squad where you at?!?
Here😄
Ayeee
Omg sick of these comments. Why do you even care about getting likes on TH-cam comment
This moved me to tears. Because everything said here is spot on. Movie theaters used to be a magical place. I remember my Dad taking me & my sister to go see Aladdin for the first time, and how magical it was. I remember seeing Jurassic Park and believing the Dinosaurs were real and being on the edge of my seat. But that experience has been lost. It's gone. Chris is right, it's dying and so many people don't care.
I got teary eyed & a lump in my throat, because I realized I used to go to the movies five times a month with family and friends. Now I might see 5 movies a year at the theater. Sometimes less. And it's because over time, people started to ruin it. It's so sad how something so magical and special, no longer exists in my life.
I actually got physically upset listening to his experiences, because it's so accurate as to how rude people are. I don't get it. How can people have no shame? How they can not be embarrassed? How can people be so okay with ruining others experience?
I'm wondering where Daniel Radcliffe is going next because he hasn't really had a huge success outside Harry Potter.
he is trying
Swiss Army Man's looking promising
farting corpse is gonna kill it.
***** Ironically
Horns was pretty great. If you havent seen it, you should.
My mum saw the trailer for this a few days ago and when she saw Jesse Eisenberg she said, "Oh, that's Proffessor Green isn't it?". I wasn't paying full attention so I just smiled and nodded a bit, however she now keeps bringing it up and I regret my decision. So now my mum thinks Jesse Eisenberg is a British rapper and co-host of Lip Sync Battle UK...
i dont usually post comments but this review is just so pretentious. you know its pretty good despite of the wrong transitional cuts. the "flashy things" than you just mentioned really made sense to the movie and the whole point of it was also for the viewers to get tricked right? its either you werent paying attention or this is just another movie YOU HAD TO RUIN just for your views.
Marella Ratificar
Yes! Someone said it. Well look at how people are agreeing with his reviews lol they've just been tricked.
Someone give that guy an opportunity to direct a movie and see what he can do. I bet he will be good making dramas.
Move on Girl he made a short film called auditorium 6
This nigga's impression of Morgan Freeman had me lmao
This was such a stupid movie. 3/10.
Your Morgan Freeman is fantastic!
unacomn lol
