Chronicle


This movie is about three teenagers (still in high school) who discover powers when they came into contact with a mysterious object (alien in nature?  Who knows as the object was never the focus).  Their powers seems unlimited as whatever they think, they can do, from flying to telekinesis.  The story was interesting in that we see the characters start to learn about their power... and eventually misuse it.  Their journey was meaningful and understandable.  You can see how circumstances ended up warping them to their darker path.  The events were shocking, especially to what happens to them as it was unexpected and emotionally impacts you.  The whole movie is seen as though from them recording it (hence the title) and it can get annoying a some points where the viewpoint isn't clear or you want a wider shot to see everything.  Nevertheless a surprise hit and the ending was good too.
