The Source

I tend to disagree, i thought the camera angels were inventive and amazing, it was better than watching just face and whole body shots, here you get a definate sense that the entire crew is trying to make a film good, rather than just expecting it to fall as a b-horror flick, that is what it was but had it had study backing, it would have been along the lines of the faculty, and i think the colors in this film are amazing, and not just when they are on the stone, the entire time the visuals are keeping you with it. Granted this film has its flubs like anyother. I also think that every drama ever made was either about two things. Adult drama with divorce death, and the whole nine yards or a teenage drama about the horrors of high school, and trust me if you are the wrong type of person, high school is a horror. So how can you judge a film like that when all films are based in those two very general catagories. Okay i shouldn't say all but a good bulk of the popular ones.

This movie was horrible. I loved it! Every scene made me laugh! And the acting was so bad it was good! HAH! Why every shot was done with a swaying camera I will never know, but it was annoying beyond belief. I hope the sequel is even funnier. They have to use that Goth kid again, he was funny!

Every scene his hair got more and more out of control. And that one girl with the "Orange" powers looked funny when she beat people up with the orange lines made from thin air. Someone had a lot of guts to release this movie with their name attached to it. It did seem like they should have morphed into the Power Rangers... It had that feeling. I was just waiting for them to look into the camera and say, "IT'S MORPHIN' TIME!!"

I really liked this movie. The acting is far from great and the special effects kind of suck, but when you are dealing with a low budget direct to video kind of movie, you almost expect this. It's one of those kind of movies that you see on cable at like 2am and just sort of fall into the storyline and just get a fun funky ride. I think if you like Buffy, The Craft and other teen angst/special powers stuff, you'll get a get out of this movie. It really reminded me of a story that would make a great comic book premise or a great tv series if handled by good writers. If you are a fan of comic books and interesting origin of powers stories I think that you can make certain parrallels between this story and comic books like The Fantastic Four or maybe even Power Pack. I also like the idea of how this film deals with the realistic elements of how teens in high school might deal with getting special powers. These kids aren't out to save the world or use their powers for good. Far from it. Anyone that was ever picked on by a bully has had some kind of revenge fantasy and this movie shows how teens with an axe to grind might use their powers for revenge and power as opposed to making the world a better place. If you had special powers and the ability to make yourself a god, would you? Could you resist the temptation to take revenge? This film is not going to get nominated for any awards, nor would I suggest renting it if you are over the age of 20, but if you see it's on cable, check it out. struggle through the first 20 minutes or so, and I think you'll have a fun ride.

I rented this thinking it would be subpar at best and was pleasantly surprised. You can tell this was low budget...but not low-low. This could be called a "Teen Film" in some respects, but it's not "cheesy" as most teen films made these days. The special effects in the film work really well i think, very inventive in their approach. The plot is an interesting one and if you're a science or sci-fi freak you'll probably relate to it more. The acting for the most part is talented for a small film such as this. Basically, if you like low-budget movies that have plot twists and unique characters then you may just like this one. I liked it enough that I'll probably buy the DVD soon.

College project? Not terrible but very see-one-time and NEVER again. Some reallllllly bad dubbing going on. The story was a bit predictable. Classic story of power in the wrong hands with very PG-13 consequences. No nudity or graphic violence.
