Erin's Nitpicks

I give "Push" 5 stars it was an excellent movie definitely worth seeing more than once. I feel it was very refreshing to see a movie not based on a Marvel / DC Comic. Don't get me wrong Marvel and DC make some great movies. But I guess I've become a little burned out by the bombardment of comic book movies lately. The only negative I saw was that the movie had an X-Men/Dark Angel feel to it but since I loved X-Men and the series Dark Angel that wasn't a problem for me. Can't wait to see X-Men Wolverine also. I'm looking forward to a long line of squeals from Push.
