Melvin, a reluctant hero who is far from super, has been suppressing his telekinetic powers for years with booze, drugs, and women. In the process, he has failed at practically everything, most of all as a parent to his son. After a brush with death, Melvin decides to use his powers for good and clean up the streets of New Orleans with the help of his best friend/definitely-not-a-sidekick, Lucille. For a man who can do the impossible, it might be a fight even he can’t win.

Expected some more comedy and action. It should've been catagorised as a drama.

A very patchy movie. An interesting premise, so reasonably actors, some ok special effects (considering the budget) - but the plot was missing. A few times in the movie I was thought that they were about to start on the main story arc - but then it would stop. End result is that it felt more like a home movie used to show off to friends than something ready of release. I hope these folks give it another try - and this time take it seriously.

I am all for small, indie-type movies to branch out in bizzare, original directions. Buuuut this one has got me so bored I very nearly fell asleep. Such a typical plot with repetitive, overdone themes we've all seen before in many better movies. Cool visual effects, I guess. Snore.

I don't what this movie tries to pass, if it's supposed to be a comedy it doesn't have to have a message, but it isn't funny, the only thing I saw that may be something is "Don't do drugs" message, if it is this message was poorly delivered. If was at least some "Michael Bay" kind movie I would have understood it better, the message would be "There is no message, is all about the money... and explosions".

Good watch, could watch again, and can recommend.

I can recommend this, but I feel like it needs a caveat for being a "Super Hero" movie where the "Super Hero" is a drug addict. It's like one step past the line that "Hancock" danced around.

The other big caveat is that it is shot "found foota More
