Burt (Steve Carell) e Anton (Steve Buscemi) sono un affiatato duo di maghi sin dai tempi dell'infanzia. Con il passare degli anni, sono diventati noti a livello mondiale e si esibiscono con successo al casinò di Las Vegas di proprietà di Doug Manny (James Gandolfini). La loro popolarità è messa a dura prova quando il mago di strada Steve Haines (Jim Carrey) comincia ad attirare l'attenzione di tutti quanti con i suoi numeri strampalati, costringendo il duo ad architettare una nuova e pericolosa esibizione per vincerne la concorrenza. oiché il risultato non è quello sperato, le strade di Burt e Anton si dividono, portando il primo a rivedere il suo carattere egocentrico e a tentare di riacquistare la passione perduta per l'arte della magia.
