Project Power

Number one in the UK, the number of times I've fallen for that one. Project Power is not going to be a film that will live you for days, you won't want to buy it on blu ray or collect memorabilia. However, if you want almost two hours of pretty well made nonsense, then you may just enjoy this, I'm not a huge lover of this particular genre, so perhaps I'm not the best judge, but I didn't switch it off, or skip through it, so that's a positive.

The story is very much x men territory, with some modern day drug problems thrown into the mix, Jamie Foxx is good value as always.

It is entertaining enough, but has b movie vibes, 6/10.

Decent acting, really good CG, meh plot. Don't expect to be blown away or anything, but if you go in just wanting to be entertained with some fun action and cool powers, it delivers.

Nothing really stands out here. Average story, average performance by actors, weak world building, average action scenes. Just average film.

Let me start with the positive: Whoever worked on the VFX in this knew what they were doing. Everything looks sharp, and the colors pop the way a comic book style movie should. I hope more action movies in this genre can add more pop to their color.

What needed work: The story starts off pretty good and I was into it but the third act felt like it came to an end pretty quickly and it feels like there was something missing. I could've totally seen this as a tv show, and I think in that format they could've explored more angles.

This a typical mass produced movie by netflix. Nothing special, just had to make another movie with a good idea and typical non-artistic execution. I wonder sometimes how they choose their directors. Is it just who is available from college?

They get great actors and just embarres them with what they have to work with. They are mass producing B movies.
