I'm trying to figure out why I'm letting this show make me so mad lol
Very interesting... and yet the blue zones are quickly disappearing.. do people not learn?
A Good and Enjoyable Movie
Kerry Washington's performance was Breathtaking and the ENDING was Brilliant!!!!
Complete nonsense. They escape with Raquel from the courthouse. Free to go anwhere but they take her to the Mint. Why?
Almost everything is disappointing compared to season 1
Well, fuck...I need to figure out how to get a bike-powered screen working so I can keep watching TV after everyone dies.
all women dig their own graves, so sad..
I have a feeling this movie, when all is said and done, will be underrated. It would be easy to consider this movie less than it is: a good action sci-fi film, as good as anything from the Marvel Cinematic Universe with performances on the strong side and deliberate, cool filmmaking on the part of directors Henry Joost and Ariel Schulman.
Project Power (2020) is a worthy follow-up to 2016's Nerve, another high-concept thriller that seemed like it was adapted from a young adult novel. Joost and Schulman have certain tics. They like for their protagonists to ride motorcycles. They distinguish their films through blinding neons and high color saturation. And above all, they have a penchant for that saccharine sentimentality some might call “heart.” Without question, Project Power has that in spades.
Both Jamie Foxx and Joseph Gordon-Levitt are underutilized as leading men in these kinds of lightweight action thrillers. Gordon-Levitt seems to be doing his best imitation of his character from Premium Rush (2012) and Foxx finds his groove somewhere between Django Unchained (2012) and Baby Driver (2017). Clearly these gentlemen are having a blast. But Dominique Fishback also delivers a compelling performance, showing the chops to break out from the unquestionably young adult trappings of this film into something that will put her substantial acting prowess to good use.
Joost and Schulman have a phenomenal talent for stylish, kinetic action. Each of the film's fight scenes is creative, not just in how they are choreographed but also how they are filmed. This is every bit a step up from their prior work, but still comfortably in their lane.
Overall, I find Project Power to be an impressive film that is a cut above most Netflix exclusive offerings. It is a fine work of genre filmmaking and might have a little under the hood. I'd happily watch a Fishback, Foxx, and Gordon-Levitt led franchise, but it doesn't look like that's a certain outcome here. Nonetheless, this is a better class of modern B movie, the kind of pulp we deserve.
Project Power (2020) - :heart:x7
This was fun and a pretty good movie. The story might have been better served as a limited series though.
How I rate:
1-3 :heart: = seriously! don't waste your time
4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this
7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too
9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!
A brilliant piece of writing. Just.... Incredible. I wish k could write like this.
The first season as well as the prequel season were down right amazing. The new guy that took over for Andy after his passing (Liam McIntyre) was nowhere near as good of a Spartacus, and I feel the show suffered because of it.
I'm not feeling Tolu at all .. she's wack. Also, the chick that went in with Jules... why didn't she defend his decision on why Tolu's name was picked?!? It wasn't even intentional smh
Too much Drama in this season. Feels a lot different than Season 1 & 2.
Worst first 10 minutes of a movie I’ve ever seen.
