Based on an upcoming sci-fi novel about a medical enhancement for the disabled meant to heal them, but ends up giving them superpowers to boot.

Cool concept but I'm afriad Proyas is going to waste it.

That dude lost his mojo.

I still like Proyas quite a bit. I think I was one of the few to enjoy Knowing, and I, Robot wasn't as bad as I thought it would be.

I don't think Proyas has lost his touch just yet. I might have liked I, Robot more than Knowing, but I still enjoyed it.

This story sounds like a cool concept, and I can only imagine what new ways Proyas can shoot new action sequences with superhuman people. Dark City, Crow, I, Robot each film built up better action and set pieces.

Also, being under Summit now, he's given a lot more creative freedom.
