Project Power (2020)

A teenage drug dealer, a former soldier and a policeman unexpectedly interact in a reality that contains pills that turn any individual into a superhuman for five minutes.

An action and sci-fi film that uses ideas borrowed from X-Men in an innovative and very satisfying way. The characters are well written, charismatic and showcasing a very convincing and pleasant chemistry. The action is well oaced and the surprises well thought out, and constrained or exaggerated perfectly, as the moment requires. Unexpected musical elements are cleverly used to help sketch the characters.

Directors:  Henry Joost, Ariel Schulman     
With: Jamie Foxx, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Dominique Fishback, Rodrigo Santoro

Rating: 8/10
