Chronicle

A socially awkward teenager chronicles his daily life on his video camera, when he and two others become randomly endowed with inexplicable powers, true natures and intents are reveled leaving them at odds with those around them and eventually each other.

Although presumptuous in the way that it is filmed this is actually quite entertaining and disturbingly realistic as to what the world would be like if there were actual "super-hero's" amongst us.

There is a somewhat interesting twist that creates empathy and fear. It is at times uncomfortably violent but that adds to the realism that the docu-style, albeit irritating, filming takes away from -- did that make sense?


*** Worth Seeing


Rated PG-13 (for language, sexual content, violence)

I saw this. I agree it was good and worth seeing. I'm not a big super hero movie person, but this was a cool beginnings type of story.
