Push
Border line law braking
Overall the movie I will give a so-so rating. But on the other hand I am surprised that I have not seen any news reports about the PACP (Parents Against Child Pornography) boycotting this movie. In the movie there are moments where Casey (played by Dakota Fanning) is barley covered by any clothing at all and appears to be in states of alcoholic euphoria. I personally see this child star being the next Hollywood teen drama story of drugs, alcohol, sex and dealings with the police. Like our current stories of Paris Hilton, Britney Spears, and Lindsay Lohan. This makes you wonder why her parents/guardians allow such sensitive rolls with the way current underage tv/movies stars are turning out these days. I can understand playing to the sex appeal of men but not by a child to gain overall draw to a hopeful blockbuster. I am like every other red blooded American man liking to see a little skin of an attractive woman, but when it is not a woman but a girl that I am seeing I start to question the morals of today’s society. The story line is moderate at best. Good action takes, cut rate cinematic filming techniques and halfway decent acting by some of the cast, make up a so-so soft-core B rated action movie. The one thing that surprised me was that there were only 6 different abilities for the characters. 1.) A Pusher having the ability to control thoughts. 2.) A Watcher having the power to see into the future. 3.) A Sniffer being able to sniff or taste an object and see the history of who has been in contact with it or where it has been. 4.) A Shadower having the power to hide people or objects from Watchers. 5.) A Shifter being able to change the appearance of and item. 6.) A what I call Sweeper having the ability to wipe people’s memories. I would only recommend it to start of the summer of big box office action hopefuls like the new X-men, Transformers, and Terminator movies coming out later this year. The one positive mention of the movie is that there was a little more dialog to the story than just straight action, making for good mention of character background and history between characters. Which for some viewers make for a nice reprieve from Hollywood non-stop action flicks.
