Chronicle

Josh Trank

Three male teens get magical powers and mostly act like total assholes...eventually becoming like deranged supermen...killing, terrorizing, destroying, etc. Very crude thematically. Good special (read CGI) effects couldn't hide the simple-mindedness behind the keyboard/camera here.

The odd thing to me was that the film acted as a perfect metaphor of what would happen if you gave several immature teens enough money to make their very own feature. How old is Trank anyway?

I suppose there's an audience for this kind of trash...you can see them hanging out in front of the local convenience store on boring summer nights, hoping some adult will come along and buy them a six-pack.
