Nicolás de Jesús' Now You See Me...

About This Movie

Now You See Me... is a curious blend of comedy, drama, and mystery that unfolds in a struggling fair setting. The film's tone shifts between lighthearted and somber, reflecting the challenges faced by Kesselring, played by the director himself. There's a tangible sense of nostalgia, heightened by the practical effects used during the acts. The pacing has its moments of frenetic energy, particularly during the performances, but also lingers on the character's internal struggles. Fredy Roque as Dr. Goodkat and Alexis Adrián's enigmatic Marcus Kelevra bring depth to the narrative, as Kesselring grapples with the darker implications of his friend’s proposal. It’s distinctive for its unorthodox approach to magic and community, with a lingering question of cost.
