"Three high school students make an incredible discovery, leading to their developing uncanny powers beyond their understanding. As they learn to control their abilities and use them to their advantage, their lives start to spin out of control, and their darker sides begin to take over."
Well the wife likes super power type movies (Xmen, Spiderman,etc..) so we went and saw Chronicle the other night. I went into it thinking it would be another teen piece of shit like Twilight but wow was I wrong. This movie is a lot like Cloverfield, i.e. its a 'found footage' flick. It even feels like it was made by the same people but I'd say it's better than Cloverfield because the ending doesn't leave you with that WTF blue-balls feeling. The movie does manage to develop the characters a bit and it gets into the action almost right off the bat and keeps it coming to the very end. It's a fun movie but it's one of those movies that you'll only watch once every few years (like Cloverfield). So if you like super powers, explosions, death and destruction, you'll dig this one..
