Chronicle film

[dirty doug]

Biggest load of ste I've ever seen.

Save your money & don't let your other half talk you into seeing it.

2 fking hours of my life I won't get back.

Thanks for the heads up, it looked pretty good from the trailer.

Agreed, it does look quite good from the trailers, but then a trailer can make even the worst film look good.

Another one to add to the "Only rent" list, thanks for the heads up!

This is the first bad review I have seen for chronicle, I'm hoping to see it sometime this week.

A slightly more sober review now but still a bad film.

My friend went with me & said it had scored 4.5. My comment was that must have been out of 100 surely.

I'm not a great film goer - prob only go 6-10 times a year so I pick my films. But all 4 of us last night said it was really a waste of nearly £32.

I agree the trailers look pretty promising but trust me that is the best 3 minutes compiled.

This film has great reviews from both the mainstream and film press, and 85% on Rotten Tomatoes.

I havent seen it so not saying you're wrong, but care to elaborate on what's so bad about it? Just not your cup of tea or is the film actually of low quality?

Was planning to see this so interested to hear more.....

I think it just has a pretty poor plot with no explanation of why they turned into 'superman'.

Actors themselves were ok nothing outstanding but sufficient.

I'm no film reviewer but when you struggle to understand what, why, who etc then things don't look good.

My girlfriend & I bookmarked this film last week as did another couple, but all of us wished we had chose something else.

Maybe if you are a teenager with a 'dark side superman' fetish it may float your boat.

I really enjoyed it. 8/10 from me, but what do I know ?

I guess that makes you "a teenager with a 'dark side superman' fetish" then I can just about remember being a teenager, so it will be interesting to see if I enjoy it.

I did think looking at the trailers, and the choice of music in them, that the film may be very teen-orientated.

Is there lots of teen-angst, love sub-plots and handsome men to make the girls swoon? (Thats what I'm afraid it'll be like)
