Joshua Lazarus (Nick Stahl) possesses a special gift that enables him to read people's minds, and the government has trained him to use his ability for missions involving national defense, all the while telling him that it will ultimately destroy him -- but will it? When Joshua falls in love with Anna (Mía Maestro), another telepathic "scoper," he and his friend, Kira (Taryn Manning), must find a cure for their gift and expose the lies. Written by MovieFiend
When I read the synopsis while scrolling through Amazon Prime Video, I said "This is just like that book that I keep in my nightstand". I've had this book for years and pull it out occasionally for a re-read.
I'm really surprised and disappointed that nothing anywhere says it's based on a book. Whole lines are taken directly from the book.
The movie wasn't a bad adaptation - as soon as it started I could remember the whole plot of the book. The special effects were pretty hokey, though.
