Re: The Special Effects in "I am number four"
Nightcrawler and #6 would have the power of teleportation (or blinking as SW said). The ability to "jump" instantly from one spot to another. This was also used in the 2008 movie "Jumper" which had some very cool fight sequences of it's own.
Displacement is completely different. The person doesn't actually "jump" anywhere, they just appear to be a few feet away from the actual location. It's an illusion rather than a physical shift. Mysterio and Mastermind use that ploy a lot. Dr. Doom often does it with his technology and I would wager most telepaths could "create" a displaced image in the minds of their opponent if they wished. Not really the same power, but it does have the same effect.
Phasing has more to do with altering the density of the person's body instead of teleporting. Shadowcat and Vision are the most obvious examples of phasing.
Getting back to the OP, you've now convinced me that I definitely want to see this movie.
