Video Title: Penn Jillette (Penn & Teller) Reviews Magic Tricks from Movies & TV | Vanity Fair

Channel: Vanity Fair

If you've ever watched a magic trick in a movie and wondered, 'How on earth did they pull that off?', then Penn Jillette's review of magic tricks from movies and TV is your new go-to video. From 'The Prestige' to 'Ant-Man and The Wasp', Penn, the talkative half of Penn & Teller, pulls back the curtain on Hollywood's sleight of hand. But don't expect a boring lecture; Penn serves up his insights with a side of savage humor that could make even a stoic statue giggle. Imagine learning about magic from a guy who makes Tom Cruise's height the butt of the joke!

While Penn appreciates the artistry behind some tricks, he's not shy about calling out the absurdities. His critique isn't just about whether the tricks are possible; it's about whether they should have been attempted in the first place. The video is a fantastic blend of entertainment and enlightenment, though it's like a magic show itself—over before you know it! Fun fact: Penn will never feature a dangerous trick in his show, ensuring the only 'cutting edge' thing you experience is his wit.
