This week on “See It or Skip It,” we’re stacking the deck with a wild mix of films and a little bit of live magic. Rotten Tomatometer-Approved critic Patrick Beatty, along with UFCA critics Rebecca Frost and Kent Dunn, unravel the mystery of “Now You See Me, Now You Don’t,” and yes, we’ve got master magician Paul Draper in the studio to show us how it’s really done. We’re also breaking down the Edgar Wright sci-fi film “The Running Man,” Vince Gilligan’s new series “Pluribus” on Apple TV, and the colorful, dream-bending world of Netflix’s “In Your Dreams,” including conversations with the entire cast. It’s a packed lineup, full of surprises, and plenty to talk about.

In Theaters

Now You See Me, Now You Don’t (PG-13)

The original “Four Horsemen” reunite after discovering a new generation of magical upstarts to pull off a new heist, but does the third installment give you more of the same tricks? Director Ruben Fleischer continues with the “Robin Hood” motif, but this is an otherwise forgettable watch, with an impressive cast and some fun illusions.

The Running Man (R)

Edgar Wright brings us a new Stephen King adaptation that delivers less of his signature style, in exchange for a more by-the-numbers action thriller. While having impressive stunt work and some fun moments with familiar faces from his previous projects, “The Running Man” stalls in the third act.
