The plot: Burt Wonderstone and Anton Marvelton are the velvet-suited kings of Las Vegas, playing to packed crowds at the Bally hotel and casino run by Doug Munny. Behind the scenes, the men bicker and eventually fall out when a high-profile media stunt goes wrong. When Munny announces a talent search to find a world-class act to headline his new hotel, Burt woos back Anton and prepares an ambitious new trick to challenge their rival: headline-grabbing street magician Steve Gray.
