CHRONICLE: BOYS WILL BE BOYS


"BOYS WILL BE BOYS"

Since my prep years, I've always had this fascination with Sci-fi films and shows. The likes of X-MEN, Smallville, Hereos, and others. I don't know, but this fascination, i think, will remain forever. A few months back, while waiting for the movie to roll, trailers of upcoming movies were played, one of which was CHRONICLE. I was really drawn by the trailer and after seeing it, I swore to myself that I will watch the movie no matter what.

So this afternoon, I decided to watch CHRONICLE. I watched it alone - LOSER! haha. Well, I asked a friend to join me but then this friend's in Baguio, so there, couldn't really make it. Hmm, so how do I find the movie? Well, how's about a 9 out of 10 sound? Yes, I loved the movie, a lot! I dig the movie's uncorrupted superhero vibe, the flying and the jean grey-ish moves. The movie made me so eager to become "one of the boys", be like either Matt, Andrew or Steve, but more like Matt really. Seriously, if there's one superpower I would want to have, it's telekinesis. Except for the documentary-ish attack of the film, which made me nauseous and all for the first 3o minutes, everything - the effects, the visuals, everything, was perfect and seemed oh so real! Btw, I loved the flying scenes and i think it might be cooler seeing it in 3d! The story was not something one couldn't fathom really, not too shallow, not too dramatic. It's a perfect mix and I'm cool with it. I feel sorry for the tragic ending though. At least, MATT's alive. haha.

'nuff said. Just go and see the movie for yourself! Enjoy!
