To me it was one more sign of a very muddled philosophy in this film. Blurring Eastern religions and sorcery seems bizarre if not disrespectful: a "spell" is very different from mind/body engagement of spiritual potential (but they are treated as one and the same in the film). Very muddled. Even the humour, which is excellent at times is very misplaced the next. **+ is as good as it gets from me. One more mug down for a Marvel film.
