The Chronicle is about three high school friends that develop superpowers after making an unusual discovery and from that discovery it leads them all to acquire some more powerful telekinetic abilities by exploring it more. Andrew, Matt and Steve discover that the power they have is like a muscle that the more you work it out, the more powerful it will become.

I still believe that the actors performed badly and the movie has a poor quality editing, and I recommend that they should have polish the movie well and consider other actors for the role. Chronicle is poorly filmed and there are countless mistakes made throughout the film. Even though the concept of the movie is far-fetched, you will still find yourself relating to the experience the friends are going through.

The movie has its positive points though, it’s hilarious, too clunky and the immersive view really helps you dive into their reality when they're soaring through the sky and playing a game of catch in the clouds and maybe it might sound silly, but you really feel like it seems you're part of their powered experience.

The movie is going to juggle with your emotions and revolving on the dark story of Andrew. The everyday struggles of Andrew put much depression and dark atmosphere of the movie.

The final act of Chronicle is going to blow you away and you will be engrossed as the film takes a grim turn and transforms into a stunning action movie. The movie is still interesting and will try to invoke your emotions and it truly is a lot of fun to watch, so do yourself a favor and watch the movie Chronicle.
