A childless couple,who've been trying for years to have a baby,find a baby in a spaceship in the forest near their home. They adopt him,and ten years later,weird things start happening.

 

Brandon starts realizing he has superpowers. At night he is drawn,in his sleep firstly,as he is sleepwalking,then when he is wide awake,to the place in the barn where the space ship is hidden,as the thing is talking to him in a foreign language. Brandon starts understanding it,word by word,and it seems it says " Take the world".

 

The movie doesn't really have an intro,it starts right off the bat with Brandon's awakening powers. He realizes he is strong, he is chewing the fork,and breaks the hand of the girl he likes.

 

Once he understands the message- Take the world- sent to him, he knows no boundaries,and starts killing anyone and everyone whom he considers a threat. That includes his uncle and father.

The movie ponders on the evil Superman idea,and it makes you wonder.

 

The acting was great,especially from Elizabeth Banks , David Denman and Jackson A.Dunn.

 

Rating : It's so money !
