The movie is solid for what it is. The two lead ladies have TERRIFIC performances, and the cinematography was really nice! The story felt like an extended episode of Heroes with less characters, but it held up. The pacing was a bit off though. It started off slow and the conflict was resolved too quickly. Her growth and understanding of her powers was too sudden imo.
I do think "Project Greenlight" gave Meko and her film too much shade. She had $5 million and 2.5 weeks to work with...they didn't give her much and she DELIVERED. Knowing what she was up against with a small budget, a tight schedule, and a chaotic/overcrowded workspace, she shined. She may not be the best when it comes to fixing a problematic script that someone else wrote, but she definitely knows how to make a solid movie. I'm looking forward to seeing her make more feature length films with bigger budgets and better scripts. Meko is talented! The people involved were really good, but overall the movie is just average, but that doesn't fall on the director or the main actors.
