OT: Chronicle

Darth Ledger · January 2012

Super Bowl weekend film, same release date as The Women In Black, interesting storyline.

So what do you think? The story has a weird sense of originality to it... But will the movie leave people satisfied?

Martin1 · January 2012

My friend really wants to see it but I'd much rather see the Woman in Black.

Darth Ledger · January 2012

I'm watching Woman In Black that Friday, Chronicle that Saturday, and the Super Bowl that Sunday lol

[Deleted User] · January 2012

I think it looks pretty generic.

aaron · January 2012

I don't know. It's very interesting to watch the campaign, but as for the film itself, I'm expecting a negative reaction.

mattStrelow · January 2012

The Brazilian title is stupid.

"Limitless Power"

¬¬

Darth Ledger · January 2012

I Really don't know what to expect at this point... I need to know the specifics of the power because it is dangerously close to a book I'm writing called "Psycholypto" that involves characters with the ability to do telekinesis, teleportation, etc.

So you can see why the movie makes me wary.

RyGuy · January 2012

I think it looks pretty generic.

This This This...

it is destined to be flushed and become...well you all know what I am about to sat...

PotterFan_649 · January 2012

It actually looks pretty interesting and I like the idea. It's like Cloverfield but with teens with superpowers.

[Deleted User] · January 2012

A new clip was released

Darth Ledger · January 2012

I'm psyched No pun intended

[Deleted User] · January 2012

Wow. So far, so good.

silverarrowgriffin · January 2012

I saw the trailer.I don't think I'll watch it

Darth Ledger · January 2012

Everybody is praising it. Looks like a huge sleeper hit.

mattStrelow · January 2012

Only on March 9 over here ¬¬
Seriously, this delay with movies over here is really getting out of control! The Help, Moneyball, Drive are all on Blu-ray over there in the US and here they haven't even come out in theaters!

silverarrowgriffin · January 2012

next week for me but idk...TGWTDT is supposed to be out on feb. 1

aaron · January 2012

Everybody is praising it. Looks like a huge sleeper hit.

This. I really would like to see it now.

Martin1 · January 2012

Yeah I already knew I was seeing this a while ago.

One of my friends wants to see TWIB.

Other has been obsessing about Chronicle for a while, lmfao. I'm gonna see both

[Deleted User] · January 2012

No major and important websites/magazines has published reviews yet. I'm still waiting for those to know what to expect

aaron · January 2012

Yeah, I expect there'll be heap of negative reviews as well, but still...

Nick · January 2012

good popcorn flick nothing more nothing less

Darth Ledger · January 2012

Looks like an original screenplay that will gather a lot of attention, the acting in the third act has been praised in every review. The story has never been done. I'd say it could be in my top 5 at the end of the year.

Joshie · January 2012

I have enough money to see both this film and WIB on the same day. So I'll definitely see WIB first.

Darth Ledger · January 2012

I'm watching chronicle on Friday night and woman in black on Saturday night

It's doing great so far!

Darth Ledger · January 2012

I've never anticipated a movie this much without knowing hardly anything about it-

aaron · February 2012

"People flying" concept in New York City to promote the film...pretty astonishing.

Bane · February 2012

hmmm turns out, one of my best friends used to date a girl who the screenwriter of this film has a crush on lol

Roger Ebert's Review: (3.5/4) http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20120201/REVIEWS/120209997

Darth Ledger · February 2012

Ebert loved it

Joshie · February 2012

I'm seeeing it tomorrow along with the woman in black. Just the acting is kinda meh

Carne · February 2012

I first heard about this movie yesterday.

Already planned with a friend; we're watching it on Saturday

aaron · February 2012

@Ash saw the film and said it was very good (and tragic!)

Richard · February 2012

Man. I want to see this and woman in black. I gotta see them soon.

aaron · February 2012

Holy shit

Joshie · February 2012

I saw chronicle and woman in black and they were both fantastic
Chronicle made me cry
Woman in black made me terrified of horror movies

Carne · February 2012

Just got back from seeing Chronicle. Really enjoyed it, although the ending felt rather rushed and flat compared to the rest of the movie.

The scene with the drug dealers is probably my favorite:

LoveGoodOwl · February 2012

I had higher expectations for the movie. I think the whole Andrews camera filming everything notion was a bit annoying and they could have done better cinematography if they nixed that idea. It was a sweet idea but I feel the lack of story line made it fall short.

Festax0333 · February 2012

i quite liked it

the ending climax got a little over the top but i like the trio of young actors, andoverall it was quite funny and even sad attimes but i agree with what lovegoodowl says too.

Nick · February 2012

it was a good movie. I enjoyed it

[Deleted User] · March 2012

Just wanted to take back what I said about the movie before I watched it. It's far from generic.

Actually, I'm still thinking about the movie. It really moved me. It's so sad and tragic... I left the theater a little depressed and I'm still thoughtful.

Joshie · March 2012

Steven - best character.

[Deleted User] · March 2012

I thought that Steven was the coolest character, but that doesn't mean he is the best.

I liked the complexity regarding Andrew's personality. Funny enough, the movie resembles me of Carrie. My friend left the theater saying that Andrew was a douchebag, that he deserved what he got. I would say that I felt really sorry for him.

Anyways, the movie was so disturbing to me. Next to We Need to Talk About Kevin, it is the most disturbing movie I've watched this year.

Richard · March 2012

I shouldve seen this when I could.

[Deleted User] · March 2012

Sequence is coming:

OMG SO COOL!
I haven't even watched the original yet, but yeah

[Deleted User] · March 2012

Matt, if you like "lost footage" movies, I bet you will love Chronicle. For me, the smartest movie to use the technique ever. I loved it

mattStrelow · March 2012

Matt, if you like "lost footage" movies, I bet you will love Chronicle. For me, the smartest movie to use the technique ever. I loved it

I LOVE this Found Footage genre!
OMG I wanna watch this so bad...

[Deleted User] · March 2012

Guys, anyone knows if a HD version of it leaked online? I wanna watch it so bad for a second time. I need to. Please?

[Deleted User] · March 2012

I went to the movies to watch again today, guys. I was blown away once again. It's the kind of movie I am becoming obsessed with.

I just can't believe that the critic called Chronicle a super-hero movie. The movie is an allegory, a metaphorical view about the teenage years. It annoys me that people are facing it as something just for the sake of entertainment. The movie has so much to say and it message is much deeper than it appears. I'm glad I can see this movie as something much bigger than just a piece of action entertainment.

Festax0333 · March 2012

by far one of my favorite film experiences in a while, it was just different...

OT: Chronicle
