Chronicle - DM Review

Unexpectedly and surprisingly good fun. A refreshing look at the human side of "superhuman". This film could have easily followed the route of conspiracy theory/alien invasion movies but the actual cause of the powers bestowed was never examined. And of this I was glad, as I was having too much fun to even care.
My only criticism is that the final showdown sequence, although genuinely pulse-raising and with absolutely enthralling special effects to start with, went on for too long. This seemed a little out of sync with the "low fi" feel of the rest of the film.

Super good fun

Score: 7/10

P.S - Why "Chronicle" as a title though?
