Chronicle

[Michael Crawford]

Didn't see a thread for this one, and I stumbled on it due to the cool poster. Looks interesting...

I try to stay away from most of those documentary / first-person handheld camera type of movies. Every once in awhile one that looks to be a gem comes around. This is one of them.

Of course you give teenagers powers and they become (even worse) douchebags

I think an after the fact mockumentary style might have worked better here, but I think the general hand held style works with this type of theme.

Absolute power corrupts absolutely - this could be an interesting way to tell that story.

Wow, trailer blew me away.....

 

[Darth Snoopy]

Trailer looks good...but I'll wait for the 99¢ Redbox rental and I'll use a free rental coupon.

That's exactly what I thought when I saw the ads.

I am very tempted to see this but I am also very worried about it being terrible. I think if RT gives it a fair review I will check it out in theaters.

 

[Mister Ski]

Right now it is getting 100% based on 11 reviews.

 

[Sweet Rabbit]

I wanna see this. I may wait for netflix

 

[forestlite]

The buzz is that if the movie does well at the box office, the director could be offered the Fantastic Four reboot....

 

[bg188]

I may have to check this out since it's been getting really good reviews.

 

[Matt S]

Seeing this tomorrow - looks great

 

[Nintenjoe]

It's got good reviews so far so I might see it on Saturday.

 

[MarfMaster]

The good reviews prompted me to check out the trailer...looks fantastic. Definitely going to try to see it this weekend.

Just got back from seeing it, and thought it was amazing. 8/8.5 out of 10. Really well done.

Not sure if the found footage style was really necessary though. It served no real purpose other then to create unneeded characters and make one of the characters seem "detached" from the real world.

It was a great movie but would've been better if it wasn't found footage.

I highly recommend it.

Just got back from this. While Nuka Cola Kidd and I differed in opinion on the last film, we seem to be in total agreement with this one

Fantastic in every way - found footage didnt bug and kinda made sense but wasn't necessary


This is like Heroes, but with less Suck factor - way less

Yeah, I think the reason why the found footage wasn't annoying was because . . .

Spoiler

they made it so he was able to move it with his mind, so the camera was restricted like in other found footage movies.
