I can handle the truth.
Timothy Amburgey said:
I know that the first-person hand-held perspective is a turn-off to many of the modern movie-going crowd, I would urge you to give this movie a chance. The story is actually very good, and the characters are magnificently developed, even though it doesn't always show. Trust me, folk, you will not recommend giving this movie a chance.
-------
Andrew is a troubled but creative teen with a keen visual eye and a high-quality HD camera. He is introverted and socially awkward. Along with his friends, Matt and Steve, they make a discovery that leads them all to acquire powerful telekinetic abilities. They're now capable of, well, almost anything. But things take a dark turn.
