Plot: Lucky Number Slevin director Paul McGuigan takes the helm for this action thriller concerning a group of telekinetic American ex-patriots who band together in an attempt to take down the clandestine government agency that's genetically transforming normal citizens into powerful psychic warriors. The Division is a shadowy government operation devoted to making humankind the ultimate weapon. Those who accept this transformation have the power to move objects with the mind, see the future before it happens, create new realities, and dispense of their enemies without so much as a single touch; those who are unwilling to participate are immediately terminated. Nick Gant (Chris Evans) is a mover, a second-generation telekinetic who went into hiding after the Division killed his father more than a decade earlier. He lives a life of anonymity in Hong Kong, a densely populated place where fugitive psychics such as himself are safe as long as they can keep their unique gift secret. Suddenly into Nick's life comes 13-year-old watcher Cassie Holmes (Dakota Fanning), a clairvoyant who needs his help in tracking down escaped pusher Kira, who may hold the key to bringing down the Division once and for all. A pusher is the most powerful kind of psychic due to his or her ability to influence the actions of others by planting thoughts in their minds. Now, as Nick emerges from hiding in order to help Cassie find Kira, the Division's human bloodhounds are hot on their trail. In order to elude the authorities, they'll need to disappear into the seedy underbelly of the city while relying on a team of rogue psychics to help cover their tracks. But Division Agent Henry Carver (Djimon Hounsou) is a powerful pusher who has made it his mission to stop them at all costs, regardless of the collateral damages that may occur in the process. ~ Jason Buchanan, All Movie Guide

push was a wonderful film, the whole movie was gripping, HUGE cliff-hanger ending.
i definately cannot wait for the second installment to come out.
i would definately reccomend this, but it does have quite a few frightening scenes, so i would pre-view this before you would allow your smaller children to watch it...

bottom line, great movie.

Push-over
Added 1/31/2010

I can see why this movie didn't make in in the theaters. You have to be into this genreget the show. The different names for the abilities (Mover, Stitch, Watcher, etc) can get a bit comfusing at times, but all in all a fun movie. So fix a cocktail, slip it in the DVD and enjoy the movie. I plan on watching it a couple (or more) times.

The story is the most amazing thing about this movie. It's the most creative use of Time that I've seen. In the movie, several characters can all predict the future, but which one comes true is the real question. I also liked the special effects and the way the other powers were described. Seeing one of the bad guys stopping hundreds of bullets with his mind was one of the amazing things you'll see in this movie. Furthermore, each power manifested by these "special" people makes sense and isn't overdone just to look cool. I would highly recommend this movie to anyone who likes science fiction or even science fact.

BLU RAY VERSION

BLU-RAY VERSION IS WORTH BUYING. I DON'T NEED TO TELL YOU ABOUT THE MOVIE, OTHERS ALREADY HAVE. BUT, NOT TOO MANY PEOPLE TELL YOU IF IT IS WORTH UPGRADING FROM YOUR REGULAR DVD TO BLU-RAY. THIS ONE IS WORTH IT. COLORS ARE STUNNING AND SOUNDS GREAT.
