Editorial Review:
Sexy Teri Hatcher (TV's DESPERATE HOUSEWIVES, TOMORROW NEVER DIES) stars with Academy Award(R) winner Louis Gossett, Jr. (Best Supporting Actor, AN OFFICER AND A GENTLEMAN, 1982) in this high-stakes supernatural thriller about a man whose special psychic gift is both a blessing and a curse! Zach Shefford is a physics professor with a well-kept secret: he can move objects with his mind! Then one day he's approached by undercover FBI agent Ray Addison (Gossett, Jr.) and enlisted to infiltrate a notorious criminal gang whose members have similar telekinetic powers and use them to rob and terrorize their victims! At the same time, Shefford and Addison are being shadowed by another FBI agent, Jordan Ripps (Hatcher), who believes they are part of the crime ring! But there can be no justice until Shefford determines who to trust -- Addison or Ripps -- and whether he should risk revealing his powers to the world!
Momentum Reviews:
It's not as bad as it first look's. 
2006-07-18 - I have just watched this film on the Sci-Fi chanel and I actually liked it. Okay it's low budget and there are no CGI effects ( a definaite bonus ) and it is so obviously a pilot for a tv series which has yet ( or never) to appear. But the acting is good to okey and the film over all is enjoyable to watch. I have never watched the Fury or Scanners but it does seem very similiar to a story I once read. It was a Babylon 5 book on the story of how the Telepath's and Bester came to be.
Also if your a big Twilight fan one of their short's also follow's a similiar idea of a small group of special people consantly on the run from the goverment who want to kill them.
However Momentum is still a good film to watch, and I intend to buy it.
Entertaining "Momentum"
2005-12-02 - Before Teri Hatcher got popular again in "Desperate Housewives", she starred in this paranormal thriller about criminals with supernatural abilities. The story and acting are very good for this kind of cable film and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Mr. Gossett is excellent as the bad guy. If you like movies like "Scanners", see this.
