Jamie Foxx, Dominique Fishback, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, Kyanna Simone Simpson.
Regardless of whatever the hell is going on with Project Power at any particular moment, Jamie Foxx stars as Art, an ex-soldier subjected to government experimentation during his time in the service.
Robin sells the super-drug to raise money for her mom’s medical bills, an activity that’s led to her awkward, mentor-ish relationship with Frank (Joseph Gordon-Levitt), a police detective hooked on the drug.
The violence with which Art initially interrogates Robin is unsettling, but the remainder of Project Power fails to maintain even a notable level of sadism.
And when Robin and Tracy finally meet towards the end of the film, it’s refreshing to see two Black girls teaming up to save the day.
