I was expecting alot more. I wouldn’t recommend this film to anyone

Not the best acting but also not bad. There's a good story line here with lots of action too, and although everything works smoothly, and comes together nicely, there is an element of !Pizazz! that's missing; I thought some of the supporting parts or the actors who played them weren't right for this movie; they were too layed back. I enjoyed viewing it though, found it interesting and fun, and would watch it again. Fun to watch.

The mythology is somewhat interesting and had potential, though the way it’s thrown at us, giving us no time to digest, makes me think that the writer and director really didn’t care about the back story.

Now, the strained compliments out of the way. Here we go. “Push” is convoluted and messy throughout.

The climax was incredibly long, rife with the twists that made shows like Heroes (Season Three, guys) nearly unwatchable.

Unfortunately for everyone who ever sees this film, there is a lot of unintentional comedy. Will it make you laugh? Probably. But will it ever make you laugh on purpose? Definitely not.

The screaming Asians. Oh no.

Cheesiness can be good, but only self-aware cheesiness. This is not that.

“Push” is a bad film. One of the worst of 2009. If you ever sit down in a cozy little room with a bowl of popcorn… make sure that you don’t make the mistake of watching this film.

3/10

Talk about a psychological thriller. This one is so far out, I thought it was the sequel to "Easy Rider"...2009 edition. Child star Dakota Fanning is superb, as is co-star Chris Evans (tremendous resemblance to 50s rock n' roll heart-throb Ricky Nelson). If you like non-stop action and twists that will have you scratching your head (whether or not you have hair), then don't wait to be "pushed" before you see "PUSH". It's one of those flicks where you can't miss a second or you may be side-tracked. Remarkable special effects, polished acting, and a profound soundtrack that makes up for a weak script. But who cares...it's a great ride. I give it 4 stars. SO now it's your turn to give it a rent. You won't be disappointed. Don’t be pushed into this…
