It sounds like you agree with me on both points 👍.

Sci-fi isn’t about the science (which is often hand-waved away completely), it’s about the philosophical implications of the hypothetical technology. And as famous scifi writer Arthur C. Clarke put it, “Any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.”

I also said that Click is the move that has more relatability, which is the same as saying, “Citizen Kane isn’t worth watching for most people”.

The point that CK’s “tricks” are outdated, commonplace, and also used by Click is completely valid though.
