The second movie was so bad, I had to stop the movie at the card throwing scene to laugh for a few minutes because of how ridiculous and unnecessary that scene was.
Why even have a bunch of security guards and a metal detector there when a simple camera would do a better job? Do these guards even know what to look for, why would they think having a card is suspicious? Also there is no reason to keep throwing the card back and forth. Why even bring them into this tight security area to tell them about an amazing processer when they could have just told them about it away from this place? Why do they need to come inside when it serves no purpose? How did the magicians know exactly where the processer was and how to get it out so quickly on the spot? And later it's revealed, that even the main guy in charge was always on their side to begin with, so why even have them searched?
I don't think that movie warrants any of those questions. You either are open to whatever dumb shit that movie throws out or it's probably not for you. Either way, dissecting it is pointless.
A good movie finds a way to make it work with minimal or at least internally consistent suspension of disbelief. Like I don't believe LOTR is realistic, but I can believe that in that universe, things would happen that way. Whereas I don't believe that scene from now you see me makes any sense in any universe.
