Chonicle - Tow Jockey Five Second Review

The world of comic books and the real world collide when three high school boys are granted super powers. These boys are no Peter Parkers or Clark Kents. They react in a way that feels true to how actual teenage boys would if they discovered that they had some cool new abilities and their problems and coping mechanisms don't suddenly disappear. The basic story has been done before. (I'm looking at you "Where No Man Has Gone Before") but it is done well here. A cool take on the super hero genre and the "found footage" technique didn't get on my nerves nearly as much as I thought it might.

Status: Still showing in theaters

    Actually saw this yesterday, and I pretty much agree with your review. The "discovered footage" angle was a bit forced at times, but otherwise done well. It was a good movie and I would recommend it to fans of super hero movies.

    I think the British show Misfits does this really well with some eye watering language to boot!!
