Unblievably absurd plot! Mindblowingly idiotic!

Why don't intelligent people just put on the yawning chasms into the goofs section (which other intelligent people visit) instead of ranting in out message out of hundreds (which many intelligent people are unlikely to read)?

No it doesnt swirl and move a lot the problem in the plot twist is that it could have been anything since all of those parts of it were completely left out of the plot if they were not parts of the plot at all to begin with how can you even call it a plot twist?
"oh there was a son of a great magician, who can it be?"
how about whoever? -

Don't get me wrong this and salt are bad movies, but clearly you haven't seen a 10 000$ action movie Where actors are not only bad but don't have the time to do the scenes again and again. Effects are less convincing than what you see on youtube and so on.
At least hollywood is technically up to standards, cgi is professionally done and actors can work on the scenes.
Search this on youtube "When Duty Calls - Ghallywood Movie" -

I should have turned this movie off as soon as the bank robbery in France took place. The acting by the "extra" who opens the real vault to find all the money is gone is absolutely horrendous. "Oh beep in French as though this was just a casual every occurrence. It really set the tone for what a shallow movie this was.
Also the plot was awful. There were what felt like 2 love stories - Ruffalo and Laurent + Eissenberg and Fisher. Both were pretty bad, but the Eissenberg and Fisher one didn't even go anywhere. What was the point in having all those little meaningless conversations?
Oh, and we start off with the movie having the 4 horsemen as the main characters - we're following them. For no reason at all, Ruffalo is now the main character, and the 4 horsemen are now tricking the viewer for no real reason at all in a pathetic manner ("oh, boohoo, poor pickpocket friend is dead.oh wait, he's not, PSYCHEEEE, we got you viewer" - p.s. I'm not referring to their Youtube video, but their actual body langauge and demeanour when watching news of their friend supposedly dying DESPITE BEING THERE AND KNOWING HE WAS FINE).
Just an absolutely horrendous movie. -

Well they had to do that or else the audience will know right away his death was faked. You gotta take some liberties there. What else were they going to do? If they dropped the facade straight away when no one else is watching you'll blow one of the surprises. -

Just not have that scene. It wasn't needed - as theCurlyone says, just go straight to their Youtube video.
You can't have characters specifically act in a certain way purely to fool the viewer and for no other reason at all and still hope to maintain credibility. I'd understand if they were in a bugged room or were being watched on CCTV or something, but they're not - there's absolutely no reason for the characters to act sad/devestated at the "death" of their colleague when noone is watching them, and therefore it makes absolutely no sense for the characters to be acting like that. It's just an exceptionally stupid thing for the writers/director to include in this movie (amongst many, many others).
When you watch good movies with twists in them, there's always a justifiable or understandable reason why a character who is involved in the twist gives the viewer the wrong signals. E.g. Usual Suspects, Sixth Sense, The Others, Fight Club, Identity - at no point do you have instances the plot the characters do something purely to trick the viewer and for absolutely no other reason. -

I liked this movie but you have a good point.
After reading all of the comments/pages(6 of em?). I think this is THE ONLY VALID point of the you Haters of this movie.
