I enjoyed this movie at a great THX theatre on Saturday, the Brenden Theatre in Modesto CA on a large curved scope screen with proper masking that moved. Good split stereo surround sound with deep base and some very good color action with a Chinese magic store and plenty of neon in the flick that I liked. One thing that was so cool while waiting to go into cinema screen #16 while the crew cleaned the auditorium when they came out they thanked the people in the wait line and told them to enjoy the movie. A nice touch Brenden Theatres does I think. Check this new film out I think you will enjoy It.

Wow, what a stunning theater! Rare to see theaters still boasting THX. Good for them!

Thanks Buck for posting more information about this fine deluxe cinema. Next time I go I'll have to check out what auditorium has the largest curved screen. I tell you this new movie 'Now You See Me 2' looked so nice and bright on the semi curved screen in #16. Best sound I have heard in the last year on this movie. Glad I was able to watch It here in Modesto CA at the Brenden Theatre.

this movie felt chummy, highly manipulative and late to the game (in terms of making and releasing a sequel to the first movie)
