I'm watching this now. More than halfway through at the moment. I'm so bored I took the time to write this review. So what can I say?...
I don't care about these characters. If they live, if they die, it doesn't matter to me. That's a very bad way to start a movie. I just don't care what happens.
As for sci-fi, this is a neat concept. Just very poorly done. It's got neat sets, great lighting, and some action scenes. But the writing is weak, to the point where it often embarrasses the actors.
The first rule of good writing is, "show them, don't tell them." In the opening sequence of Push, the whole background of the story is narrated to us. Sometimes this can be done cute. But not here. Here, it's just bad writing.
