Review of The Power of Few (2013) by Jim L — 17 Jul 2013

The Power of Few was one of those movies where you are about 20-minutes into the film and say to yourself, what the heck am I doing? Lucky for me I have only turned off a movie maybe 2-3 times in my lifetime. This film was very slow to start and the story seemed very cheesy and convoluted. It wasn't until about half way through the film did I start to really get into the story and understand what the movie was about. That isn't a bad thing; I think that is by design. This movie uses some unique story telling techniques to ultimately build a great movie.

Yes, the acting was a bit overdone, and the story was a bit convoluted still, but overall the movie was fun and by the end you felt really satisfied. There are plenty of movies out there that start strong, but can't figure out how to end. This one is the opposite; it has a really strong finish.
