    • IF is projected to make over $40 million during its opening weekend at the box office.
    • IF opens in North American theaters on May 17.

  • Deception (100%)
    None Found At Time Of Publication
  • Fallacies (95%)
    The article contains several statements about the projected box office success of IF, but these are not fallacies as they are based on reports and projections from reputable sources. The author also provides context and background information about the film and its cast, which is not fallacious. However, there is one instance of an appeal to authority when the article mentions that 'reports suggest' IF will have a strong opening weekend. This does not significantly impact the score as it is a minor infraction.
