Push (2009 Movie)

Push is a 2009 movie directed by Paul McGuigan and starring Chris Evans, Dakota Fanning, Djimon Hounsou and Camilla Belle.

Various people with an assortment of psychic powers are being experimented on by a shady government agency known as “Division”. However, only one person has so far survived the agency's attempts to boost their powers: a Pusher named Kira Hudson (Camilla Belle). Pushers have the ability to control minds: they can implant false beliefs or memories which people will act on, or in Kira's case when she is operating at her full boosted power at the end of the movie, completely control the actions of several people at once.

Kira escapes from Division, who will stop at nothing to hunt her down to recover both their only successful test subject and the drug used on her, which she stole when making her escape. Division agent Henry Carver (Djimon Hounsou), also a Pusher, leads the hunt. Kira manages to reach Hong Kong and join up with other psychics in hiding from Division: Nick Gant (Chris Evans), a Mover (telekinetic), and Cassie Holmes (Dakota Fanning), a Watcher (precognitive).
