PUSH (2009)
During Hitler's reign of Nazi Germany a number of medical experiments were enacted, each attempting to give ordinary humans extraordinary powers that could be harnessed for military purposes. After Germany's defeat in World War II the country abandoned these projects, but other Western nations began their own. A seedy government organization known as 'The Division' created their first generation of superhumans around this time; decades later, those test subjects would give birth to their own children, who also possessed extraordinary powers. Nick (Chris Evans) is one of those children, a so-called 'mover' who can shift objects telekinetically. Early in the film he receives a surprise visit from Cassie (Dakota Fanning), a 'watcher' whose speciality is clairvoyance. She has come to inform him about a briefcase that Division agents desperately want. Like many other Division subjects, Nick has fled the Division and relocated overseas. Since the agency has been tracking Cassie, her visit to the mover's home revealed his previously unknown location to Henry (Djimon Hounsou), a ruthless Division agent. Henry is also the product of government experimentation, and possesses the power of mind control. Initially Cassie claims that the briefcase contains $6 million -- enough for Nick to pay off his gambling debts and escape the wrath of a nearby Asian gang. Later, he learns that it contains a government serum that boosts recipients' mental powers tenfold. The concoction's formula was altered numerous times, killing those who received it. Yet one woman survived the injection: Nick's former girlfriend Kira (Camilla Belle), a recent Division escapee who stole the serum upon fleeing. While Cassie hopes to obtain the enhancer to free her mother from the agency's imprisonment, all three stand to benefit. Kira, Nick, and Cassie intend to use the serum as a bargaining chip and ultimately free themselves from any of the Division's control. Henry is merely one of the trio's foes however; a vicious group of thugs also want the substance for their criminal organization and will stop at nothing to get it. Push earned over $65 million internationally, not including DVD sales and rentals, easily recuperating its $38 million production cost. Its soundtrack features trip-hop group UNKLE, indie rock group The Kills, and Germany's The Notwist. Rating: Rated PG-13 for intense sequences of violence and action, brief strong language, smoking and a scene of teen drinking.

Insomnia
Sent from the city to investigate the murder of a teenage girl in a small Alaska town, where the sun never sets, Detective Will Dormer, played by Al Pacino, accidentally shoots his own partner while trying to apprehend a suspect. Instead of admitting his guilt, the detective is given an unexpected alibi, but this "solution" only multiplies the emotional complexity and guilt over his partner's death. He's also still got a murder to solve, in addition to the blackmail and framing of an innocent bystander being orchestrated by the man they were chasing Walter Finch, played by Robin Williams. As Finch plays a dangerous game of extortion with Dormer, the detective's mental health deteriorates rapidly from guilt over his complicity in a crime and sleep deprivation compounded by the lack of darkness in the land of the midnight sun. Meanwhile local detective, played by Hilary Swank, is conducting her own personal investigation... of Dormer’s partner's death. Will it all come crashing down on him?

THIR13EN GHOSTS
Arthur Kriticos (Tony Shalhoub) is a heartbroken widower, still reeling over the death of his beloved wife, Jean (Kathryn Anderson). With the help of a sassy nanny, Maggie Bess (rapper Rah Digga) he raises two children: daughter Kathy (Shannon Elizabeth) and son Bobby (Alec Roberts). Jobless, Kriticos recently filed for bankruptcy and has fallen deeper into depression. When his wealthy and eccentric uncle, Cyrus (F. Murray Abraham) passes away, however, Arthur inherits his stylishly designed mansion. Is an end to Kriticos' hard times in sight? Trouble begins shortly after Arthur meets with Cyrus' attorney, Ben Moss (J. R. Bourne) to finalize the estate's transfer. Electrician Dennis Rafkin (Matthew Lillard) frantically rushes from the basement, informing Ben and Arthur that he had just encountered a slew of ghosts. In parallel two ghouls confront Bobby: The limbless Torso (Daniel Wesley) and hanged cheerleader Susan LeGrow (Laura Mennell). Upon hearing both accounts Ben grabs his payment and heads for the door, only to be sliced in half by it. From this point forward all exits are sealed and a devilish game of survival begins where no man, woman, nor child are safe. The Kriticos' are accompanied by a former associate of their uncle, so-called spirit liberator and paranormal expert Kalina Oretzia (Embeth Davidtz). Oretzia explains that Cyrus modeled his home after a 15th century astrologer's demonic blueprint, and that it is actually a sophisticated machine powered by the ghosts within it. After learning this Arthur comes face to face with his wife's ghost, whose body remains charred from the fire that killed her. While Jean could have escaped from the blaze, she selflessly reentered it to save her children, realizing the likelihood of death. Her spirit claims that to save Bobby and Kathy Arthur must make a similar sacrifice, and subsequently join Jean in the afterlife as the 13th of the home's 12 ghosts. Still Arthur considers his options and critically reexamines the facts before him. In the process he will uncover a truth that drastically changes his subsequent course of action. Reviewers almost unanimously took note of the picture's technical wizardry, particularly its highly fascinating mechanical set. The film was profitable, earning $68 million after the studio's $42 million investment. Thir13en Ghosts' electronic score, composed by John Frizell adds an additional layer of suspense; its soundtrack features a song by cast member Rah Digga alongside the dark sounds of British producer Tricky. Rating: Rated R for horror violence/gore, nudity, and some explicit language.
