The "lone scientist" (who happens to be a barely) with the help of a friend, solves the energy crisis by creating a limitless fuel supply - something trained and brilliant scientists have been unable to do for decades. And a "master detective", another singular individual without external help, solves a murder mystery with the snap of his fingers. This magical thinking is stupid and demeaning to the viewers intelligence, but apparently, for reasons I cannot fathom, appeals to many film critics. Oh, as if that is not enough, let's throw in some completely gratuitous cameo appearances by Important People (eg, Serena Williams, Stephen Sondheim, etc.) that will create the appropriate buzz. This film is devoid of intelligence, wit, and believability.
