fairly good movie night movie redbox with friends. id hate to spend money to see this in a theater. Also the ending of the movie was extreamly abrupt and i feel that they could have done it better.

This has to be one of the worst movies of all time. Maybe it is my age because once upon a time ago I actually liked this sort of movie-- one told from the perspective of a camera that the characters are using. If you haven't guessed, I'm talking about The Blair Witch Project; this was nothing like that. The story line was ridiculous. It got so boring that I turned it off with a half hour left to

A few more bucks (or a little more thought) for the script would have been a better investment than faking Seattle. The characters are introduced so quickly, and their personalities are so thin, that what happens to them has little weight. Full Review

San Francisco Chronicle
If the characters weren't so well drawn, if the effects weren't so convincing, and if the upshot weren't so ghastly, the moral component wouldn't carry any weight. But Trank tells his tale with an emotional and visual crispness that gives the superhero genre its best crack at naturalism so far. Full Review

Los Angeles Times
This mind-and-fork-bending sci-fi saga comes from the freaky imaginations of director Josh Trank and screenwriter Max Landis, who've packed their feature debut with smartness. Full Review

USA Today
Bolstered by the natural performances of a trio of little-known actors, the very watchable Chronicle keeps us captive throughout. Full Review

The New York Times
Mr. DeHaan, whose vulnerability and physical awkwardness here can evoke the young Leonardo DiCaprio in "What's Eating Gilbert Grape," is invaluable. Mr. Russell and Mr. Jordan are as likable as their characters, but it's Mr. DeHaan who pulls you uneasily in. Full Review
