Chronicle.

I still haven't gotten around to it, but I aim to see it this week. I've heard too many positive things about it to keep putting it off.

Ever since I caught the trailer for it, I've desperately wanted to see this, but I haven't had a chance yet. Hoping I'll get to it this upcoming weekend.

I've heard nothing but good things.

I'm very torn about seeing this since, at least based on the trailer, it is so close to an old trunked WIP that I wrote years ago that I want to cry.

I was really unmoved by the trailer. It didn't look bad, but it didn't look too good. I saw it opening day and, surprisingly, it knocked my socks off. It's so far my favorite movie this year. I know that doesn't say too much with the year being so young, I know. But it still gets my stamp of approval.

Yeah, I really enjoyed it as well . Highlight for mild spoilers: I thought the superfight at the end was about the best I've ever seen. I also got vertigo when they were doing the flying scenes, which I guess says something. It did really well at the box office ($69 million worldwide so far, against a ~$12 million production budget), so a sequel is pretty much guaranteed.

Yeah its very obvious they're going to do a sequel. I haven't seen a movie sequel-baited this bad since Last Airbender. One of the characters basically looks into camera and say "There's going to be a freaking sequel."

I haven't seen it yet, but I plan on it! Everyone keeps telling me how good it is.

See it! It was fantastic and so much fun. Teenage boys with superpowers as they would probably act. Blowing up girls' skirts and pulling silly pranks. I liked how you had three different kinds of teens. It wasn't just a nerds vs jocks. When shit got real at the end...whew! What a thrill.

Saw it with my girlfriend for Valentines (I know, she's awesome). It was incredible - I'm a sucker for well-made 'real footage' movies (REC, Battle for Los Angeles, etc) but this was the best yet! The entire thing, but especially the climax, just worked perfectly at making 'kids with superpowers' seem absolutely real.

SEE IT.

Just saw it again with my friends. And I NEVER pay to see a movie at the cinema twice.

The only other exception being Scott Pilgrim... Three times.

Saw it with friends, it blew me away. Seen it three times since then, haven't done that with a film in theaters since The Expendables.

I was really surprised at the fact that it was found footage. Also, they don't keep it in one perspective, and change cameras from time to time. I loved the climax, even though I was hoping it wouldn't go down like that from the beginning. Kudos to the writer and the effects crew.

I didn't get that vibe at all. The ending felt very nice and final.

Also, as a note, I really loved the fact that the movie ACTUALLY HAD AN ENDING. Every other found footage movie I'd seen lacked closure, which bugged the crap out of me.

There are a couple mysteries that were not explained, so I think a sequal is imminent.
