This movie expects me to believe that the Horsemen dropped millions of Euros into a crowd, and the crowd just calmly grabbed then from the sky? Really? No fist fights? No trampling? No deaths?
This seems like a good way to get a lot of people killed.
And they did it with fake money at the end, too.
But hey, it's all worth it for a really good magic trick, right? -

What about their elaborate fake car accident? They could've (would've) murdered dozens of innocent people. They had no control over that vehicle or the rest of the traffic on the bridge. I just finished watching this and I'm really confused about how we're supposed to like these magicians? They're beep

In the movie's defense, likely only people who spent time in Europe or deal with foreign currency regularly would even know what this non-green paper falling from the sky was. Yeah, they knew it was the millions of Euros from the vault, but the only thing most Americans know about foreign money is that a US 10 dollar bill is not 10 dollars in another country. If it had been US 20, 50s, and 100s greenbacks, yeah, people would have died but if it were me, the reaction would be "WOWwhat is thisand how much is it worth?" which looked like the general response of the audience. 100 euros equates to 110.37 US dollars but if you were to walk up to the average Joe on the street and give him three seconds to either take (2) 100 euros OR (1) 100 dollar bill, he may THINK the euros are worth more but he's gonna take the sure thing.
