PUSH, a Partially Original Idea for a Movie

But not really:

This sci-fi thriller involves a group of young American expatriates with telekinetic, telepathic, and clairvoyant abilities, hiding from a clandestine U.S. government agency referred to as "Division." They try to find the only woman that ever escaped from "Division". She is their only key to finding out how to escape the agency. They must also use their different talents and band together for a final job enabling them to escape the agency forever.




Because the same fucking movie has been done before. Jumper:

A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between "Jumpers" and those who have sworn to kill them.




And Wanted:

A frustrated office worker learns that he is the son of a professional assassin, and that he shares his father's superhuman killing abilities.
