Chronicle is the story of three young guys who crawl into a sink hole where they find some sort of eerily glowing alien device that infects them with telekinetic super powers. Chronicle is also one of those ‘found footage films,’ meaning it’s shot in a herky-jerky handheld fashion that is usually used by directors who don’t have the budget (or the talent) to use actual special effects to tell the story. Even though this is his first film, director Josh Trank seems to have the talent needed to make a real movie, and although his budget was probably pretty small compared to most of the stuff Hollywood cranks out, the effects in Chronicle are pretty cool.
