Ridiculous visual effects, probably absurd plot. The trailer looks very cool.
Quoted: 29 year old Dr. Atsuko Chiba is an attractive but modest Japanese research psychotherapist whose work is on the cutting edge of her field. Her alter-ego is a stunning and fearless 18 year old “dream detective,” code named PAPRIKA, who can enter into people’s dreams and synchronize with their unconscious to help uncover the source of their anxiety or neurosis.

Hmm. I asked Paco (Dr. Paco now) whether this theory seemed promising to him, and here's what he said:
"Unfortunately, I'd say this has about as much chance as explaining the way the universe works as the something pulled out of the Sunday funnies. In fact, the only reason I think it's getting any attention at all (mostly in the popular press; the physics community for the most part hasn't heard of it), is because of the article's title and the hype of a few reporters ("exceptionally simple" BTW is actually a really bad pun... the theory is no more simple or elegant than any of the 100s of other crackpot theories that come out each year). The only thing positive I've heard about it is that Lee Smolin, a reasonably well-respected scientist, but occasional crack) says he think's it promising, but then I read that his Perimeter Institute funds Lisi, so who knows. Anyway, so no."
Haha, I didn't click through because thought it was from the onion.
