PUSH (Theatrical Release USA 2009)

 Ben Meyers’ rating: 4.1|5.0 Starsìììì

Push—great concept—chooses to cast Chris Evans and Dakota Fanning together. It’s magic onscreen especially with a second duo of Camille Belle and Djimon Hounsou. The film involves the mind and an audience can easily miss story points if not carefully watching. Good entertainment.
