'''''Push''''' is a movie about Nick ([[Chris Evans]]), a man who lives in perpetual fear of the US version of Division, a worldwide agency of major governments whose goal is to train psychic soldiers. To aid this, Division injects psychics with a [[Super Serum|drug]] to boost their abilities. Only one person, Kira ([[Camilla Belle]]), has been able to survive this drug, and she quickly escapes after taking the drug. Nick meets Cassie ([[Dakota Fanning]]), a [[Deadpan Snarker|snarky]] 13-year old who can see the future. Together, they track down Kira and a stolen syringe which contains the serum with the hope that finding it will help them bring down Division.▼
The movie was poorly received at the box office and by critics, getting a paltry 23% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. It made a little over $31 million, not counting overseas and DVD sales, so a sequel is unlikely given that it had an estimated budget of $38 million. There is [https://web.archive.org/web/20120730000623/http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=62491 a television series] in development being written by [[David Hayter]], but the lack of recent news means it has likely fallen into [[Development Hell]].▼

Line 36 ⟶ 35:
** {{spoiler|The entire movie was one gigantic one by Cassie's mother to get the serum into the hands of her daughter. Cassie jokes that her mom must've been planning this since before Cassie was born. Knowing that, she's probably ''right''.}}
** {{spoiler|Nick's letters can be considered this, especially the one of he and Kira at Coney Island at the end. This is justified by them having dated for quite some time, and by having someone who can see the future on their side.}}
* [[Guns Akimbo]] - A favorite technique of the good guys, {{spoiler|not that they ever get to use them}}.
* [[Healing Hands]] - It's here, but it's VERY painful, and can work in reverse.
