Now You See Me: Now You Don’t Christian Review

Now You See Me: Now You Don’t is a magician’s trick in itself – fast, clever, and full of smoke. However, the film conveys a subtle message about trust, deception, and the thin line between justice and pride under the illusions and diamond heists. The Horsemen are back, and they are not only accompanied by new characters but also each of them driven by ego, redemption, or the need to make up for the past.

Surprisingly, for such a story, the film’s moral compass is quite on the right side of the spectrum. The characters do break the rules but their motives are primarily to reveal corruption and bring the truth to light. The film does not present the world as black and white but it does show that even imperfect characters can pursue something good – which is in line with the Apostle Paul’s teaching in Romans 3:23:
“all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.”

Religion and spirituality are quiet – like a very soft voice under the soundtrack. Here you won’t find the calling of Jesus but through the themes of unity, sacrifice, and loyalty you can see the hand of grace. It is a very small indication of the love of Christ, for instance, when the Horsemen put their lives on the line for each other.

The family-friendliness level is average. The language is not very clean, and there is some deception going on, but the movie does not delve into the dark side like most of the thriller genre. It is appropriate for mature teenagers and adults, especially those that are into moral enigmas.

Looking through the lens of the Bible, the film’s portrayal of justice is somewhat in line with Scripture’s urging to reveal wrongdoings; however, it is missing the divine foundation. The magicians depend on their wits and cleverness rather than on truth or prayer. Nevertheless, their resolve to combat evil without turning into it themselves is what gives the story its moral core.

Once the curtains close, the film Now You See Me: Now You Don’t can be likened to a parable revolving around pride and purpose – the way in which we are so easily deceived by the illusion of having control. The greatest magic is not the quickness of the hand; rather, it is discernment – the competence to unveil the trick and cling to what is good.
