	Author	Review
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"A superficially diverting but substance-free concoction, a would-be thriller as evanescent as a magic trick and one that develops no suspense (...) because the characters possess all the substance of invisible ink"	NEU
United States	Richard Roeper Chicago Sun-Times	"This is a slick con, all flash and no substance. 'Now You See Me' seems awfully sure of itself, with self-important, intrusive music"	NEG
United States	Stephen Holden The New York Times	"Long before the story culminates with a preposterous final revelation, whatever hopes you had that 'Now You See Me' might have had anything to say about the profession of magic, rampant greed or anything else have been dashed"	NEU
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"It takes a certain dark magic to make the talent of a top cast (...) disappear right before your eyes (...) rating: ★½ (out of four)"	NEG
United States	Scott Foundas Variety	"This would-be 'Ocean's Eleven' of the magic world remains watchable throughout, even as it plods along without ever quite fulfilling its potential"	NEU
United States	Moira MacDonald Seattle Times	"'Now You See Me' zips by, smoothly and pleasantly thanks to that star-studded cast and the slick cinematography, but it’s hard to get too attached to it. Now you see it, now you don’t, now you stop thinking about it (...) Rating: ★★½ (out of four)"	NEU
United States	Sara Stewart New York Post	"We’re stuck with a greasy-haired Mark Ruffalo (...) muttering that he doesn’t have time for this magic crap (...) Rating: ★½ (out of four)"	NEG
