8.25 of 10. I found the first a disappointing attempt to do a film like Ocean's Twelve and 13. This creates it's own space and provides a more fitting role for Woody Harrelson to fit in. The nature of the film, however, will disappoint young, naive magic fans who came for Daniel Radcliffe.
What makes this different from a magic or tech film is that it combines the 2 and goes further, mixing in international intrigue and national security issues. As a result, we have something like Edward Snowden meets David Copperfield (who is a co-producer).
Whether there's a trilogy now or not, this fulfills the promise of the first film and can leave us content with the series.
