Review of Project Power (2020) by Tvjerry — 16 Aug 2020
"Power" is a new pill that gives superpowers to everyone who takes it …hitch is…you can't control which power. Joseph Gordon-Levitt plays the cop trying to stop its spread, when Jamie Foxx shows up with his own motives.
They team up with a teenage dealer (Dominique Fishback) to rout out the culprits. While the plot and script is essentially trite, the most compelling element is seeing what powers will emerge. They're OK, but never especially cool and more often they serve to muddle up matters.
Meanwhile, the fight scenes are confusingly staged, which sometimes makes the action hard to follow. While it's moderately entertaining, this film lacks enough originality or filmmaking skill to make this project powerful.
On a side note, even though the location is regularly announced as New Orleans, there's little flavor of the city and nobody sports an accent.
