ONE NIGHT WHILE ATTENDING A PARTY, THREE HIGH SCHOOL FRIENDS, ANDREW, MATT AND STEVE DISCOVER A HOLE IN THE GROUND WITH A STRANGE NOISE COMING OUT OF IT. THE THREE GO DOWN TO LOOK AROUND AND FIND A LARGE GLOWING CRYSTAL. THE NEXT DAY THEY FIND OUT THEY HAVE THE POWER TO MOVE THINGS. THE MORE THEY LEARN HOW TO USE THEIR POWER AND THE STRONGER THEY GET, THEIR LIVES BEGIN TO TUMBLE OUT OF CONTROL.
THIS MOVIE STARTS OFF NOT BEING TOO SERIOUS: MOST OF THE SCENES ARE OF THE GUYS PULLING PRACTICAL JOKES ON UNSUSPECTING PEOPLE, BUT AS THE MOVIE GOES ALONG AND THEIR POWER GROWS, THE MOVIE GETS VERY SERIOUS AND VERY DARK.
I THOUGHT THE EFFECTS WERE DONE QUITE WELL AND LOOKED BELIEVABLE; THE ACTING WAS GOOD AND DIRECTION WAS OKAY, HOWEVER IT SEEMED LIKE THE THREE FRIENDS ACCEPTED THIS NEW POWER A LITTLE TOO EASILY, AND DIDN'T SEEM TO BE TOO CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT IT WAS DOING TO THEM, BUT THEY WERE ONLY CONCERNED ABOUT WHAT THEY COULD DO TO OTHERS. FINALLY, I WOULD HAVE LIKED SOME SORT OF EXPLANATION ABOUT THE CRYSTAL, BUT THERE IS NONE.
RATING 2.5 out of 5
