Tonight I saw a preview showing of PUSH, a film about superheroes in the real world is what they were going for I believe. This film stared Chris Evans who was also the super powered Human Torch so he is not new to the super powered genre. He was not as charismatic as he was in Fantastic Four which is sad since you can tell this guy has personality but keeps finding terrible projects to be in. The film had an interesting visual style, the art direction of the scenes were interesting with many patterns and textures on almost every surface. The movie had many other problems, the pacing was slow for most of the film, the dialog was uninspired and the story was nothing new, actually retreading old X-Men comics themes. This movie seemed to be what a superhero film would have been if the grunge movement of the early nineties had been the director. My friend who fell asleep during the film had a great response to my question of how much of the film he saw-"too much".
