Chronicle

This is a superhero like movie where three boys gain the use of telekensis, or the ability to move items with their mind. The movie was released on Feb. 3, 2012 and stars relatively unknown actors Dane DeHaan, Alex Russell, and Michael B. Jordan. The movie was shot similar to the Paranormal Activity movies, Blair Witch Project, and Cloverfield. All the footage from the movie appears to come from a personal camcorder, or some other normal recording device such as a cell phone or security camera. A lot was lost in the movie due to the filming strategy. The story line took a while to develop, but the ending made up for the wait. There is a deep psychological meaning behind the story which may be lost with all the action.
