As Above, So Below (Film)

While over sensationalized and a bit simplistic, the movie As Above So Below is nonetheless still entertaining. And it does touch on some real-life mysteries surrounding both medieval alchemy, famous Alchemists, and the enduring legend of the Philosopher's Stone.
Speaking for myself, I think the movie hit a good note. They showed just enough to be believable while still keeping the film mysterious (with the exception of the demon monks at the bottom of the tunnel, that was a little goofy to me). The lead actress, Perdita Weeks, does a good job of carrying the story with her emotional reactions and it is her personal weakness that sets events in motion.
The while film is about the deadly misadventure of a band of catophiles led by a young and talented student of Alchemy (Week's character) who seeks the fabled Philosopher's Stone in hopes of proving her dead father right and also acquiring its power for herself. Unfortunately, the tunnels beneath Paris are home to ghosts, demons, and other mysteries which surround the resting place of the Stone.
