Happy Thanksgiving! The Filmlosophers are serving up a generous helping of cinema with their special holiday series, "OVERSTUFFED!" Hosts Eddie and Spencer, and Intern Manager/Managing Intern Amy are tackling films they've seen this holiday season, but couldn't squeeze into the regular schedule.
First on the table is the mystifying (but maybe not that mystifying) trilogy entry: Now You See Me: Now You Don't. The crew feels that the latest installment fell short of its magical origins. They dive into why the film seems to have misplaced its focus, operating less as a magic movie that utilizes heisting, and more as a straight-up heist film that occasionally incorporates some magic tricks.
They'll dissect the plot's complexity, the reliance on spectacle over genuine illusion, and debate whether the cinematic rabbit is truly out of the hat for this franchise.
Join The Filmlosophers for a packed and honest review where the only mystery is why the magic disappeared!
