walking out of the movie "that ending was wicked gay" from a teen girl.
Anyhow, the movie was watchable, but the whole "it's from video cameras" thing kind of limited it. They could have done so much more with that story. Oh well.
I thought it was good. I'm glad they didn't explain a lot. Leaves it up to your imagination.
I don't think they could have done the ending any better, really.
exactly.
besides, the movie was called "Chronicle", it makes the most sense that we only saw what was being recorded by a camera. like how they were hovering at the space needle and andrew ripped all of the cameras from the tourists/diner people and had them record himself from tons of angles so we could see the action from those new angles. i thought it was a very interesting way to film an entire movie.
i also sort of think the movie was originally conceptualized based purely on the way to film/present itself. they then just made the movie about super powers so the kid could make the camera float around and get more "conventional" movie shots in the mix. but thats just my high logic.
Also.... I forgot to mention. One of the main actors....
WALLACE from season 1 of The Wire.

just watched it...it was very cool.
the ending left i wide open for a sequel with the kid all like "im gonna find out what happened to us...blah blah" but I dont see how they could make another movie and keep the hand held video camera thing happening without being ridiculous.
