Today, as you're reading this, a new "found footage" film titled "Chronicle" is playing at your local theater. But there's something that makes "Chronicle" slightly more interesting than past entries in this genre: It's not a horror movie. "Chronicle" is the tale of three high school students -- Andrew, the shy loner; Matt, Andrew's slightly more outgoing cousin; and Steve, the popular star athlete -- who develop mysterious powers after an encounter with an unexplained, underground orb-like object. "Chronicle" is an interesting movie. So interesting, in fact, that Jordan Hoffman (from Next Movie, /Film and formerly Ugo's movies editor) and myself decided that an Obsessive Chat was necessary. (Spoilers ahead, obviously.) Mike: I would be remiss if I didn't mention that the actor who plays Steve, who was also on "The Wire," is named Michael Jordan. That has to be tough. Or great. I can't decide. Jordan: Yeah, he was very good.
