I agree. I mean the story line is like a fan fic gone wrong, Cillian Murphy and Sigourney Weaver are academics trying to debunk paranormal feats from illusionist/magicians Robert De Niro, but in a world where they're not considered as magicians and they're taken really seriously, with Murphy acting like it will be the end of the world if a paper gets published (by a different department (one whose sole purpose is to find proof) in the same uni, that gets twice the funding as the debunking class) that shows De Niro is supernatural.
