    You're not alone. Faintly enjoyed it while I watched it but complete piffle otherwise.

    Always found it ironic that the tag line was "the closer you look, the less you see" - can't think of a more empty movie!

    I enjoyed it, its utter nonsense but entertaining nonsense. Though to answer your question, since it actually holds a 50% rotten rating over on Rotten Tomatoes, plenty of critics agree with you ;)

    Yep utter tosh, the opening scene was pretty good but it was downhill all the way from then on.

    I saw it in the cinema and liked it. But once you know the ending, it's hard to watch it again IMO.

    Great cast but poor compared to the build up.

    Tried to watch it 3 times before seeing it fully

    It's very much an okay film.

    Wouldn't say I enjoyed it. It's watchable, nothing more. And once you know the ending that's it.

    I was disappointed by the little magic that was showcased. Then their aim to make it into a special cult - which promised much - was only teased, made me feel 'That should've been in the movie'. The reveal of the blue hooded figure, left me saying "right...". That was worth it. But it was an ok film.

    I only got about half an hour in then turned it off. Just found it irritating.

    It thought it was far cleverer than it actually was. I also didn't think the "four horsemen" were particularly likable protagonists. They seemed to do a very good job of making them far too smug for their own good. I wanted Jonathan Creek to show up and bust their act wide open, then for them all to get arrested.

    Any movie that uses cgi in place of real magic tricks is just pointless.

    So will anyone be going to see Now you see me 2 which is due out next year I believe.

    I loved NYSM even though it was preposterous. However I still haven't worked out why Michael Caine disappeared as if by magic half way through!

    I thought it was alright up until the bank vault trick, which gave me the impression that they were going to explain how things were done. But by the time we got to the CGI bubbles, I'd realised they were just going with CGI effect and no explanation so I lost interest.

    No, I didn't like it either.

    I enjoyed it but can't remember a moment of it now. Literally, no recollection. So I could probably watch it again!
