Seen through the lens of a troubled teen's video camera, yet filled with eye-popping action and jaw-dropping special effects, Chronicle is as real as it gets. When three ordinary high school friends make an extraordinary discovery, they acquire amazing abilities beyond their understanding. But as their powers develop, so do their darker sides. Fun, harmless pranks soon lead to much riskier activities as the boys' 'gifts,' and their lives, spin dangerously out of control!

COMMUNITY REVIEWS

Human, despite the evidence submitted by pkooger on August 15, 2012, 3:43pm This could have been a very generic alien superpower story but the three main characters elevate it to a great movie. The interplay of three very different people provides the most interesting part of the story, and the whole meteor-induced telekinesis thing almost becomes a background story. The "found footage" conceit is used effectively to give a sense of the inner workings of these three young men, but it does require more than a little bit of a suspension of disbelief, especially toward the end. If you're a fan of interpersonal dramas with a touch of the fantastic, this is for you.

Wow, great movie submitted by KOH on August 13, 2017, 10:37am I didn't know what to expect, and I was very pleasantly surprised. A really cool, unique, dark take on a "super hero origin story".
