An F.B.I. Agent and an Interpol Detective are tracking a team of illusionists who appear to be pulling off bank heists during their performances. Real magic? Or elaborate criminology?.
We are in the realm of the fantastical, where illusions and impossible tricks reside. It’s a nifty backdrop to this splendidly flashy slice of misdirection hokum. Our four magicians, each with their own personal skills – and calling themselves “The Four Horsemen” – enact a number of elaborate stage shows that has all members of the law baffled.
Their rich benefactor played by Caine, is smug about his charges, Freeman is the myth buster trying to unearth the secrets of the “four”, while the cops are constantly pulling their hair out. What does it all mean? How will it pan out at the end?. Well it’s great fun, the tricks are expertly staged, the cast give gravitas to their respective characters, if only the big reveal at the end wasn’t a bit too far out there…
There’s a bit of a steal and a nod to another heist caper film, while that finale can make or break your overall opinion of the piece. Yet the journey is so enjoyable and intriguing, it’s kind of forgivable anyway… 8/10
