00:00Hello, the movie is here.
00:02Today we are doing a review of a movie from 2016 called Sleight.
00:07The story will focus on a young ghoulish magician called Bo Wolfe.
00:12During the day, Bo performs magic tricks all over Los Angeles,
00:16with his specialty where he can control everything that is metal,
00:19and even be beautiful in the air.
00:21At some point, we see a young woman who is in wonder because of his magic tricks.
00:26Because of this, Bo manages to get to know his wife,
00:28finding out that her name is Holly.
00:30When she asks him how he does his tricks,
00:33Bo continues to keep quiet because the magician always keeps his secret,
00:36which is based on the magician's ethics, which he knows,
00:39and he also never does the same trick more than once.
00:42In the meantime, it turns out that Bo has to take care of his little sister, Tini.
00:47Sadly, their parents died a few years ago.
00:50This forces Bo to do illegal activities to have blood on his head.
00:54It's strange, but it turns out that he did the trick without using ordinary things,
00:58but by building an electromagnet on his hand with negative electrodes from a battery
01:03that moves through his thumb and a positive electrode that goes through his finger.
01:07He first built an electromagnet in his high school for a scientific project
01:11that secured him an engineering degree, but he couldn't accept it
01:14because he had to take care of Tini, because their parents died.
01:18Whatever the circumstances, he has to clean the mess every time he appears.
01:23He also has to replace the battery with a new one.
01:26At night, he doesn't have the life of a normal teenager.
01:29He is forced to sell drugs overnight to pay bills.
01:33This is his everyday source of income with his many clients.
01:37He is almost caught by the police when he ends up selling drugs,
01:41but luckily he has never been caught so far.
01:44When he checks the money he got from the magic tricks,
01:47he finds Holly's phone number on a piece of paper.
01:50He works with his supplier, Angel, who is often nice to him.
01:54He orders Bo to investigate the new kingpin who came
01:57and started selling drugs for less money in their territory.
02:01After that, Bo goes to the club where the new kingpin keeps his drug dealers.
02:08There, he pretends to ask one of the drug dealers,
02:11but he manages to take the dealer's phone using his magic tricks as a magician.
02:16At the same time, he goes through his call history
02:19and finds out that the name of the dealer is Maurice.
02:22The next day, Bo decides to go out to date Holly,
02:25thanks to the number of the phone he found last night.
02:28After they talked a little, he gets a call from Angel,
02:31telling him to come to their base.
02:33It turns out that Angel found out where Maurice lives.
02:36They plan to attack Maurice's house.
02:38In the other hand, Bo was given weapons for self-defense later,
02:41although he is against this plan being included,
02:44because he is the type of person who does not like violence.
02:47When they get there, they directly catch Maurice, as well as his people.
02:51At first, they offer cooperation instead of being in a stalemate like they are now.
02:56But because one of Maurice's people underestimates him,
02:59Angel gets angry and hits him at the same time
03:01as he tells him to think about his offer well.
03:04The next morning, Bo does all his magic tricks,
03:07as usual, which makes people around him even more surprised.
03:10While in the evening, together with Holly and Tina,
03:12Angel and his people come to his house
03:14and tell him to go to Maurice's house again at this moment,
03:17because he did not accept Angel's offer.
03:20Fortunately, Holly and his neighbor Georgie are there,
03:23to keep an eye on his sister that night.
03:25A few moments later, the group manages to kidnap Maurice
03:28while he was walking with his daughter.
03:30After that, angry Angel orders Bo to cut off one of his hands.
03:34Although he did not want to do it,
03:36in the end he cannot do anything
03:39because Angel threatens to find his family, including Holly,
03:42the person he loves the most.
03:45So Maurice screams in pain,
03:47very hysterically, while Bo leaves the place,
03:49unable to finish his own work.
03:52Thanks to his bravery, Angel gives him a lot of drugs.
03:56After showing Georgie the drugs,
03:58he plans to make him pay 15,000 dollars
04:00for the drugs he takes,
04:02so that he and Tina pay the rest of the debt
04:04and leave the city in one piece.
04:06Strange, but Bo manages to sell all the drugs in just 5 days,
04:10so he can quickly give Angel the rest of the money
04:13and ask for his permission to leave the job.
04:15One morning, after Holly and Bo sleep together,
04:18she asks him what happened to his hand.
04:20Since then, all his secrets have been revealed,
04:23that he is deeply inspired by the street magician
04:26who saw him as a child.
04:28He is taught that the magician must perform a trick
04:30that no one else knows except him.
04:32With his skills with tools,
04:34he manages to move or lift objects
04:36that are a little bigger and heavier,
04:38such as an iron table that he can move a little.
04:41At night, he goes out to have fun with Angel.
04:44Everything goes as it should,
04:46until Angel calls Bo to come to the second floor
04:48and finds out that Bo has cheated him with his drugs.
04:51As a result, at the same moment,
04:53he threatens Bo that he will kill him,
04:55only if he does not come with 45,000 dollars
04:57in one week to return the debt to Angel.
05:00As a result, Bo comes with bruises on his face.
05:03He also tells Holly everything he is struggling with.
05:06Fortunately, she continues to encourage him
05:08in making money.
05:10She even gives him her savings to help him.
05:12In short, he works very hard
05:14selling the remaining drugs he had,
05:16while doing his tricks to make money faster.
05:19Feeling that he still needs money,
05:21he decides to steal the last 9,000 from Luna.
05:24Luna invites him to the main office
05:26where her deposit box is.
05:28Bo uses the opportunity to watch her
05:30unlock the safe by studying the code.
05:32When they want to leave the office,
05:34he steals the keys to the office from her
05:36and then pretends to go to the toilet,
05:38while Luna comes out first.
05:40He moves the security camera
05:42using his power to return to the office unnoticed,
05:45and then steals the money from the deposit box.
05:48He also manages to hide
05:50after the guard suddenly enters the office
05:52to take things from Atlen.
05:54After that, he drinks drinks with Luna,
05:56feeling guilty that he took her money,
05:58but he was tempted to take advantage of the opportunity.
06:01After drinking with her,
06:03Maurice's gang is unexpected in the club at the same time.
06:06When they see him, they manage to knock him out,
06:08tie him up and possibly put him in the car.
06:11Fortunately, he manages to escape
06:13using his electromagnet.
06:15But still, Maurice stole all his money.
06:18In the middle of the night, Bo and his little sister
06:20decide to go to the neighbor's house,
06:22while Angelo and his people
06:24move everything to collect the money.
06:26The next day, Bo tells his sister to go back to school
06:28because he thinks the situation is more favorable,
06:30but it turns out that Angelo said
06:32that they were kidnapping her.
06:34He finds out about it when Angelo
06:36forbids him through a call.
06:38From that moment on, Bo has no other choice
06:40but to give the money he doesn't have
06:42as soon as possible.
06:44When he goes home, he suddenly remembers
06:46his old science professor from high school.
06:48He then decides to go to the professor's house
06:51and be in contact with him
06:53to get more electromagnetic power.
06:55Therefore, the professor has an idea
06:57on how to add a feedback oscillator
06:59based on his knowledge.
07:01He finally manages to install the electromagnet,
07:03but he warns Bo that it could cause
07:05a wire overheating in his hand.
07:07Since then, Bo's power has reached
07:09its full potential,
07:11just like the magnet from the X-Men movies.
07:13When he feels that he is ready,
07:15he goes to Angelo's house with Holly
07:17and tells her to wait for him in front.
07:19He then goes inside with the installed
07:21electromagnet to find out where Tina is.
07:23From the same moment, he pulls out
07:25one of his ex-colleagues,
07:27which makes him bleed.
07:29He also hits a man with his aluminum stick
07:31and sends him flying towards the wall.
07:33Not long after, Angelo comes and shoots
07:35at him at the same moment,
07:37but what happens is that he stops the bullets
07:39and makes the light flicker.
07:41He then throws the bullets down
07:43and picks up one, slowly digging
07:45Angelo's head to force him to tell him
07:47where Tina is.
07:49After Angelo tells him that she is with her aunt,
07:51he drops a bullet from Angelo's forehead
07:53and gives him 15,000 dollars
07:55before he leaves the room.
07:57He picks up Tina at the same moment,
07:59but she is not far from that place
08:01with his burned arm.
08:03In the end, he decides to start a new peaceful life
08:05with Holly and his little sister in San Diego.
08:07While they are adjusting to their lives,
08:09Buoys is still doing street magic
08:11with his new tricks and entertains
08:13people around him as his main job,
08:15and his arm has completely recovered.
08:17In the end, Holly is surprised
08:19when she sees that all the lights in the house
08:21are on their own.
08:23She then goes to the toilet to check on Buoys,
08:25and it looks like he's doing a new trick
08:27with his electromagnets that could make him
08:29a superhero in the city.
