Film Review: Chronicle

Genre:  Drama Sci-Fi Thriller, Contain strong violence & abuse

Cert : 18 cert

Story: 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, as one of them darker side begin to take over.

Likes : This Film was good,its show how amazing power can be but in the wrong hands you could destroy the world, Dane DeHaan who plays Andrew Detmer who is a quiet shy person become a threat to the world after being given powers but you can understand why the way he was because with out hubris (compassion) for humanity with powers like this it it over whelms because of the dark nature he had spun him to use the powers to destroy,Michael Kelly play Andrew detmer drunk father who abuse on Andrew cause Andrew to be evil, Alex Russell who plays Matt Garetty Andrew cousin who had a rule never use the power on living things or in pubic tries to help is cousin but in vain as he was far to go to the dark side.Michael B. Jordan plays Steve Montgomery Matt garetty friend who also has the powers.this film was seriously dark in place but it also has a funny side as well when they were start to learn there powers after touching some alien craft.the toy bear had me laughing my head off when they made it move in front of a little girl say when your daddy why are you on your own she screamed & ran off that was funny,but it soon gets darker as you realise that Andrew is start to show signs of psychotic behaviour with the powers.

Dislikes : Slightly a bit slow could of be more action in it.

Overall : not a bad film to watch,dose show how powers in the wrong hands can threaten the world,but worth watching

Rating: 5 out of 5 for special effect, 8 out of 10 for gritty superpower theme
