"normal" is not a function, it's an ex command. Interactively, you would invoke 
it like :normal zR

Instead, you did :normal (zR)

That is:

( - jump back a "sentence"
zR - open all folds
) - jump forward a "sentence"

Depending on where Vim thinks the first "sentence" ends in your file (which is 
probably not prose with an actual sentence structure) this could place you 
pretty far into the document.
