The Division, a shadowy government agency, is genetically transforming citizens into an army of psychic warriors—and brutally disposing of those unwilling to participate. Nick Gant (Chris Evans), a second-generation telekinetic or "mover," has been in hiding since the Division murdered his father more than a decade earlier. He has found sanctuary in densely populated Hong Kong—the last safe place on earth for fugitive psychics like him—but only if he can keep his gift a secret. Nick is forced out of hiding when Cassie Holmes (Dakota Fanning), a 13-year-old clairvoyant or "watcher," seeks his help in finding Kira, (Camilla Belle), an escaped "pusher" who may hold the key to ending the Division's program. Pushers possess the most dangerous of all psychic powers: the ability to influence others' actions by implanting thoughts in their minds. But Cassie's presence soon attracts the attention of the Division's human bloodhounds, forcing Nick and Cassie to flee for their lives.With the help of a team of rogue psychics, the unlikely duo traverses the seedy underbelly of the city, trying to stay one step ahead of the authorities as they search for Kira. But they find themselves square in the crosshairs of Division Agent Henry Carver (Djimon Hounsou), a pusher who will stop at nothing to keep them from achieving their goal.This movie could have been awesome. It had a pretty decent premise of a government agency churning out pseudo-xmen. Unfortunately, it played out pretty crappy. You can pretty much tell just from the lameness of the power having classifications. The Screamers . . . . . well they scream and can hurt your ears. The Sniffers . . . . well they sniff and can track you. The Pushers . . . . . well they push you to do what they want you to do. You get the drift by this point, right? How can you have a great sci-fi type premise and then be that lame with power titles? Seriously. Anyway, this movie also provided us with the worst performance of Dakota Fanning's career to date. Hopefully this is just a blip and won't be the start of bad to come as she gets older in terms of acting ability.
I wouldn't really recommend this movie to anyone. Its definitely not worth the money and would pretty much be a waste of time to go to the theater and what not.
