Mark Ruffalo chases a bunch of magicians and discovers they have tricks up their sleeves in Now You See Me.
Documentary filmmaker Dror Moreh is shocked by the admissions of six former heads of Israeli intelligence agency the Shin Bet in his Oscar-nominated The Gatekeepers.
And Mark Wahlberg learns a thing or two about pursuing The American Dream, the hard way, in Michael Bay’s Pain & Gain.
