Phonearl Good start, but then it gets ruined

Listonixio Fresh and Exciting

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Abbigail Bush what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

frankjenkins45 The idea of the movie is very interesting; the worlds of oblivious individuals unsuspectingly intersecting. It featured some big name actors, so I had some, what I felt were reasonable expectations. However, I was a little suspicious after seeing Christian slater; and rightfully so. The dialog was pretty pathetic, especially between Christian Slater and Nicky Whelan. They were a couple of CIA type characters and their flamboyant use of code words made the movie hard to watch. Chris Walken provided the only entertainment through the movie. Antony Anderson's portrayal of an "angry black-man" was a complete joke. Remember that movie Malibu's Most Wanted, where he was "acting" like a black guy? Yeah, just like that, but worst. His use of "white mother****er" and "cracker" is pretty comical through. This movie is a complete was of time. Do something more entertaining, like watch grass grow. Oh, and the ending that people are saying is good... Well, I don't have any idea what they are talking about. I was just thankful that it ended. Maybe that is what they were talking about?...

Claudio Carvalho In New Orleans, several dramatic and weird situations are entwined with a surprising conclusion.The intriguing "The Power of Few" is a pretentious and pointless mess. The viewer sees deaths and accidents originated from multiple stories, most of them absolutely boring. Christopher Walken and Christian Slater, for example, are completely wasted with awful segments. When all the stories are finished, with a fatal ending, a girl named Few changes all the lives in a senseless and pointless conclusion. My vote is three.Title (Brazil): "O Poder de Alguns" ("The Power of Few")

fossilmail A good idea executed in a bad, bad way... With the exception of 3 actors the whole cast seriously need to go back (or just go for the fist time) to the acting school - bad, fake, forced emotions, just terrible. The basis of the story is there, but told in a really bad way. Mistakes, things that make no sense.. Just a bad movie. You keep on watching hoping it gets better, but it doesn't. Clichés. Predictable. And very poor casting skills. It just makes no sense, just like the fact of this site forcing you to write at least 10 lines about a bad movie, that it is just that - a bad movie. There are no 10 lines to be written about this, it is a waste of ciber ink and this movie is not worth it.

intelearts TPOF is an attempt in its cinematography, editing, sound, characterization and overall direction to be different - and it partially succeeds - you come away remembering the images and characterizations - the real problem though is the script has words but lacks the same rhythm the same bebop sensibilities, and so jars constantly with the multi-layered multifaceted story lines as they interweave.For this reviewer the Macguffin of what has being stolen should have been a kicking off point for lots of great banter or ideas and instead seems to just be wasted; in addition, both Christian Slater and Christoffer Walken are given their parts and then woefully under directed.All in all, this is sub-Tarantino, with some interesting ideas about multistory lines and some film school ideas on use of angles, grading of film etc; that are designed to make it look sloppy and cheap - which are the positives - the negatives are a script that needed editing for its sound - it's just too prosaic for this piece - and performances that though OK could have been workshopped more: I would say that Leone Marucci has a ton of good ideas, but needs to allow his actors less freedom, and needs the script to zing in rhythm with the camera.
