Now You See Me is an American heist thriller film . The plot follows an FBI agent and an Interpol detective who track a team of illusionists who pull off bank heists during their performances and reward their audiences with the money.

The story starts with four magicians who present their first major performance as the Four Horsemen in an elaborate Las Vegas show funded by insurance magnate Arthur Tressler. Their final trick appears to transport one of the audience members to the vault of his bank, in Paris, where stacks of new euro bills are stored. At the magicians' commands, the fans in the vault activate, drawing the bills into the vents and then showering the Las Vegas crowd with them. The Euros are shown to be real, and the vault in Paris is found to be empty of its recent shipment of Euros, leading FBI agent, and Interpol agent, to be partnered and investigate the Horsemen. The two question the magicians but have no evidence to hold them.

It is a fast paced, psychological thriller that keeps the audience captive till the end. One has to watch every scene to get to the end of the reality of the whole plot. It is about the intelligence and shrewdness of human mind that how one can use one’s skills for good or bad purposes. There are no bounds to human mind and its genius, the question is how individuals use it.
