Okay, if your creative work contains the phrase "question everything" in any place or context, as in "John will have an adventure that causes him to question everything!", delete all files and start over again.
If you are a film executive, take a good hard look in a mirror, think about what you've done, and go learn a goddamn trade.
"Question everything" is a hollow, lazy, overused phrase that says nothing but "I have zero commitment to putting actual content here."

@zebratron2084 Possible exception: John descends into a Descartes-esque state where he literally questions everything, and finds proof of its existence wanting.
But "questions everything" would still be lazy summary writing.
