Project Power

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

The effect are very good, only for that the movie is worth your while, as a brainless action flick. For the story, for some reason Netflix has to put in an annoying kids in their movies, in this movie the kid can't act and really, really get on your nerves.

I knew this movie was coming and considering the track record of Netflix lately I wasn't expecting much. But I was pleasantly surprised. I expected the intersectional check list to be thick on this one. This was actually not the case. Whilst there were some mentioning of systemic racism, it felt more natural to the movie and was not forced. The story line was a bit bland, the bad guys were a bit superficial but the acting of the main characters was good, the concept of powers in pills was actually a great and unique one and the special effects were good. They could have made better use of this but nonetheless not bad at all. I think this movie was better than many of the previous new films and series of Netflix. Because I thought this movie was a pleasant surprise but the story was a bit bland and superficial I give it an 7.

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.

If you've got a rough life, quit school, sell drugs, dream of becoming a rap star. That's the message.

This could have been an awesome movie, too bad the wrong people influenced the script and directing.
