These are the lame-ass powers that a chick in her late twenties would find most valuable had I stumbled upon the super telekinesis granted in the movie CHRONICLE.
Chad and I went to see the film last Saturday and were pretty impressed, especially after having to sit through previews that seemed to confirm the idea that Hollywood has really given up for the most part.
If signs were really helpful....
Yet, Chronicle is a real treat. The film is not only well written, directed and acted it is also thought provoking while still renaming well-paced and entertaining. Chronicle is a "found footage" film that explores the ramifications of giving teenage boys super powers. All three handle their gift differently and their traditional rolls in teenage society begin to change; what has brought them together can break them apart.
All in all, I really liked the film, and I get the found footage angle although I don't think it would have taken anything away from it had it just been filmed regularly. I think they wanted a lot of shots of Andrew (who looks a hell of a lot like a you Leo DiCapio) looking moodily into the camera which you really can't get away with otherwise. I give it two geeky thumbs up!!
