Push It - Push Review

For those of you who don't know, I got a job at The Michigan Daily, the paper for the University of Michigan. I'm writing film reviews. There are like 7 other people on staff, so I am only one of a few reviewing movies each week. Last week, I watched Push and it was published today in the paper. Since I work for the newspaper, I can't reproduce the entire review here, but I'm going to post the first paragraph and link it to the website.



February is a notorious dumping ground for sub-par superhero movies (see “Ghost Rider” and “Jumper”). Unfortunately, “Push” follows in this regrettable tradition. The film’s visual beauty and brilliantly executed action sequences are bogged down by a convoluted storyline with super-powered characters who are impossible to track. It's nothing more than a big-budget, well-directed episode of “Heroes.”

Here is the full review.
