My Review-
It seems like there are a lot of movies that are coming out that are "found footage" movies, Chronicle might be just the best one to come out of that category. The movie asks the question, what would you do if you had superhero powers? It sort of shows the actual reaction to a teenager finding out all of a sudden he has these super-human powers; such as the ability to fly and different abilities. This also shows what can happen if someone uses them for other purposes and personal gain. A lot of things worked for this film, the writing, acting and especially for this type of genre, the camera wasn't all shaky like with Paranormal Activity and Cloverfield. This movie had me wanting more, even though it had a lot of action, which was really good for this type of movie even though the effects at times were kind of cheesy, I still enjoyed the actions scenes. This also one movie just by looking at the preview you knew that it would be could and not disappoint which it did, from start to finish to did not disappoint. Now I cannot say to much because I do not want to give any anything way, and that it should be one of the movies that you see in Theaters and not wait for it to come out on DVD or Blu-Ray.
