Dit vindt ik dus op MovieMeter
Een verlegen jongeman met de bijnaam Powder wordt gepest door zijn klasgenoten die zijn schokkende uiterlijk niet accepteren, hoewel hij zijn best doet om erbij te horen. Het gepest houdt echter op wanneer Powder een mysterieuze kracht laat zien waarmee hij tot ongelooflijke dingen in staat is. Deze kracht verandert het leven van de anderen op een onvoorstelbare manier
En in het engels is iets uitgebreider:
The movie 'Powder' is a return to innocence. It possesses a spiritual quality that opens the eyes to life. And it lends a soothing note to those questions for which their seems to be more questions and few answers. Sean Patrick Flannery's performance was so powerful that one could actually feel the unconditional love within the heart and soul of the character that he played. The concepts that were brought forward, the passion that came with every dramatic scene, and the sense of realism and truth made it one of the most thought provoking movies of all time. Powder was not based on a true story, but it is, I feel, everybody's true story in some way, and it is as powerful, passionate, and inspirational as any true story I have ever seen. Some viewers may wish to begrudge the apparent perfection portrayed by the lead character. However, his only perfection was the way he searched so deep, often at great personal expense, for the suppressed perfection in everyone, and the hidden perfection in everything. I was somewhat disappointed by how the family quality of the movie was spoiled by the use of language by the school bully. Still, a must see for anybody who enjoys a thought provoking film once in a while. Even if you're a person who would prefer to sit down with a good book, as am I, the movie 'Powder' is definitely worth your time. In conclusion: 'Powder' is one of my favourite movies of all time. Seconded, in my opinion, only to 'The Boondock Saints'; also starring Sean Patrick Flannery.
Hoop dat je er wat aan hebt, als je de film ziet blijft het je bij!!!!!
