Scotty Newton - All Round Entertainer

Chronicle, Chronicled SPOILERS EVERYWHERE! Woo….. another teen superhero film. Or is it? Chronicle follows three teens who get super telekinetic powers from touching a rock, er…. thing, in an underground cave. It then follows their different reactions to their telekinesis. We have Steve, the confident character, running for class president who likes to feel on top, Matt, who wants the group to be responsible and keep their powers hidden, and Andrew, a social outcast, the bullied kid who has parent-issues who slowly loses his grasp on his new found strength. The story was pretty tight, nice to see the parallel reactions to the powers. In particular Andrew, (played by Dane DeHaan) stole the show with his transformation particularly well handled. Andrew always keeps a barrier between himself and the world, from his camera at the start to a physical manifestation when his powers go into overload and he becomes more obsessed with his strength. It’s a classic case...
