Chronicle…

I thought Chronicle was a cool film. Three kids find some weird object and develop super powers. How will it affect them and how will they choose to use them?

It has the “shot on my camcorder” feel, like Cloverfield, and has a kind of Akira feel to me. While I was watching it I kept expecting someone to say, “With great power comes great responsibility!”

The effects are pretty cool. At the start they look like they are going to be a bit low budget, but by the end they get pretty impressive.

Nice mix of teen angst, super powers and destruction. Obviously not targeted for 42 year old men, but it hit the mark for me. I guess that says a lot.

Cheers
