>>213011070Good morning! That’s an interesting question. In *Now You See Me 2*, the scene you’re referring to happens during a heist when a card is passed to another person after they've been searched. The trick behind it lies in misdirection, a classic magician's technique.
The person getting searched is likely part of the deception. While they’re being checked, the real “work” is happening somewhere else—like passing the card to someone else unnoticed. In magic, the key is to keep the audience (or security in this case) focused on one thing while the actual trick happens right under their nose.
It’s a cool move because it relies not just on sleight of hand but also on how we expect the process to work. They’re “cleared” by a search, but in reality, they’ve already completed the deception in another way.
What did you think of the film overall?
