Project Power - A Decent Action Movie on People with "Powers"

Few days ago, this movie was released on Netflix and honestly I had no idea what the movie's premise and therefore no intention of watching it. But as it was a long weekend holiday and after finishing last seasons of 2 series I had been following for years, I wanted to watch a feature movie. So I read the synopsis which apparently seemed interesting (with superhero and stuff), and thought I should give it a try. OK let's get on with it now.

Brief Story Line

Set in the New Orleans, a new drug called "Power" was distributed by a person later on revealed as Biggie (Rodrigo Santoro - Reprisal TV series, The 33 etc). This drug was said to give people a special power specific to the person who used it but only lasted for 5 minutes. With the increase of criminal activities done by the people who used Power, a cop from NOPD named Frank Shaver (Joseph Gordon-Levitt - Snowden, The Walk etc) decided he should also use it to level the playing field. He bought them from a small time dealer named Robin (Dominique Fishback - The Deuce TV series etc) who was also a struggling high school student.

GUARDIANS - A Russian Version of Superheroes Movie

Yesterday, this movie premiered for the first time in Indonesia. My wife and I were not too enthusiastic in watching it as it did not seem to be a very interesting movie. But since her plan of going out in the morning was cancelled and she would be free till 2PM, we decided to watch the movie at 11.45AM. So let us get on with the movie.

Brief Story Line

August Kuratov (Stanislas Shirin) was a mad scientist who created superhuman by altering DNA during the World War 2 period. When the Russian government found out about his intention of creating a clone army of super humans and also having equipment attached to his body which enhanced his power and strength, they had to do something to capture him.

Major Elena (Valeria Shkirando) was tasked by Major General Nikolai (Vyacheslav Razbegaev) to head the "Patriot" organization which would be to recruit the superhumans created earlier. They had all hid themselves for many years and therefore, Elena must find out the locations of all these people urgently.
