Elaborate illusions! Fake identities! Bad CGI! It's what magic is all about. Join as Dan and Brian review the 2013 magician heist thriller and its more comedic 2016 sequel, which has 100% more Lizzy Caplan quips (always a good thing in Dan's eyes). Brian shares his 8-year brewing curiosity with these movies as he and Dan try to pull a rabbit out of an ever-growing pile of twists and misdirection. Join as they admire the remarkably deep cast, list similarities to The Prestige, and pigeonhole Dave Franco in their favorite roles.
