Review For Chronicle
As pulp sci-fi this Fox release is pretty good, but it's also commendable for its sensitive depiction of adolescent behavior. Ben Sachs-Chicago Reader A semi-serious sci-fi romp, lighter and more fun than many of the comic-book movies that it steals from, a superhero movie in which nobody ever crusades, or wears a cape. Roger Moore-McClatchy-Tribune News Service "Chronicle" is a mildly experimental commercial film, and, for the most part, it's loose-limbed fun. David Denby-New Yorker Chronicle is the kind of movie that makes one excited about the future prospects of the man at the helm. James Berardinelli-ReelViews Without the found-footage distraction, Chronicle is an entertaining and creative take on the concept of teenage superpowers. Eric D. Snider-Film.com Although it dog-legs into silly mayhem in the homestretch, for a good portion of its quick 83-minute running time Chronicle is a quite clever boys-gone-wild-on-telekinetic-powers fantasy. Todd McCarthy-Hollywood Reporter Chronicle is a sometimes fun, slightly dark film about a boy and his camera. Shannon M. Houston-Paste Magazine Villains rarely get the lead-character treatment in Hollywood, and that alone makes Chronicle worthy viewing if one is craving a unique found-footage film. Jeremy Wheeler-TV Guide's Movie Guide Such cleverness doesn't save the film from predictability and contrivance; it's a triumph of mindlessness over matter. Peter Keough-Boston Phoenix Chronicle isn't just a unique found-footage movie or superior superhero film, it's a truly enjoyable blend of the best each genre has to offer. Ben Kendrick-ScreenRant If other filmmakers involved in this genre could put as much time and effort into their story and characters as screenwriter Max Landis and director Josh Trank did here, there'd be a lot more of them worth watching Jeff Beck-Examiner.com If how you finish is the pinnacle of performance, Chronicle drills the game winning kick through the uprights just as triple-zeros strike the clock. Erick Weber-NECN Captures the wonder of the superhero power fantasy in a way few films ever have. William Bibbiani-CraveOnline The overwhelming number of superhero films of late and the seemingly limitless ability of CGI have taken some of the wonder out of displays of dazzling feats beyond ordinary human potential. Chronicle restores that thrill. Mark Pfeiffer-Reel Times: Reflections on Cinema It's nice to know that small gems like this can find a place amid the behemoths of Marvel and DC. Rob Vaux-Sci-Fi Movie Page There's no compelling reason for Chronicle to be a found-footage movie. Indeed, for long passages, as an omniscient camera swoops around, free of any apparent operator, you might forget that it even is one. Ian Berriman-SFX Magazine Josh Trank's Chronicle is one of those rare and all too quiet reminders that big studios still can fit (relatively) small, smart movies into their lineup, and Fox sends it to Blu-ray with a very strong transfer. Chris Cabin-Slant Magazine Understands postpubescent psychology and even lightly traffics in philosophy...Here are newly born man and superman, both unprepared for the consequences of their sudden inheritance of the earth. [Blu-ray] Peter Canavese-Groucho Reviews There's not much in the way of character development, and the acting, though competent, isn't a selling point. The special effects are decent, but not incredible. If you buy "Chronicle," it's because of the concept itself. James Plath-Movie Metropolis A bold mix of "The Craft" and "Akira"... Felix Vasquez Jr.-Cinema Crazed The finale, indeed, makes a lot of what we've seen in much more expensive superhero films look stupid. Rob Gonsalves-eFilmCritic.com What is Chronicle? It's the answer to the question that you asked your friends when you're a kid - what would it be like if super powers were real? Blake Howard-2UE That Movie Show An intriguing, character-driven genre story well told. Michael Dequina-TheMovieReport.com Clearly made to kick off a new found-footage franchise, Chronicle is a very clever story about teens who develop unusual powers, mixing everyday reality with some excellent out of this world sci-fi fantasy.
