    Why the disclaimer?

    Money has a cool persona and carries himself in an entertaining believable fashion but I don't understand why they start the show with the disclaimer that "there are no camera tricks and everything is real," when anyone can tell there are camera tricks at work here. This entire show is based on cinematography as they show clips of whatever city he is in, and clearly every person who he performs a trick form is coached by someone where to stand and what type of look to give etc. kind of entertaining but I don't know how they can be proud of boldly stating there is no illusions or camera tricks when there is.

    90% presentation

    In theatrical magic there are only a certain number of tricks. What marks out one magician over another is their presentation and this guy has his presentation down cold. One trick is to make something disappear only to be produced again from an impossible location. This could be a driver's license inside a sealed coconut in Miami or a playing card stuck to a ceiling in a Cape Town bar. It's the same trick. Another trick is taking an empty container and filling it with some thing or many things. This could be a paper bag magically filled with packs of playing cards, a cone made of news paper filled with sweets or a paper bag magically filled with a pair of shoes ( or for that matter a hat with a live rabbit ). All the same trick, just presented differently. The weakness here is that we have no idea if the tricks were performed for real? Were the audience actors or real people? There's a caption before each episode telling us it's all legitimate, so that's all right then because TV shows never lie. Do they?

    Entertaining

    Simple escape pardon the pun entertainment for a series. Hope there are more like the history about each magician.

    Entertaining!

    Just enjoy the show! I feel like the other reviewers are just looking for something to be wrong as opposed to just enjoying the wonder. I bing watched the whole season and liked every second of it.

    If you study anything to long or expect to be disappointed then you probably will be.

    Idk

    I can't tell if the audience is fake or not but it's fishy how in one episode someone in the audience was from another Netflix show
