Product Description

Product Description

Three high school students make an incredible discovery; leading to their developing uncanny powers beyond their understanding. As they learn to control their abilities and use them to their advantage; their lives start to spin out of control; and their darker sides begin to take over.

Amazon.com

If you should come upon a glowing, possibly extraterrestrial object buried in a hole, go ahead and touch the thing--you might just get superpowers. Or so it goes for the three high-school buds in Chronicle, an inventive excursion into the teenage sci-fi world. Once affected by the power, the guys exercise the joys of telekinesis: shuffling cars around in parking lots, moving objects in grocery stores, that kind of thing. Oh yeah--they can fly, too: and here director Josh Trank takes wing, in the movie's giddiest sequence, as the trio zips around the clouds in a glorious wish-fulfillment. It goes without saying that there will be a shadow side to this gift, and that's where Chronicle, for all its early cleverness, begins to stumble. Broody misfit Andrew (Dane DeHaan), destined to be voted Least Likely to Handle Superpowers Well by his graduating class, is documenting all this with his video camera, which is driving him even crazier (the movie's in "found footage" style, so everything we see is from a camcorder or security camera, an approach that gets trippy when Andrew realizes he can levitate his camera without having to hold it). Trank and screenwriter Max Landis (son of John) seem to lose inspiration when the last act rolls around, so the movie settles for weightless battles around the Space Needle and a smattering of mass destruction. Still, let's give Chronicle credit for an offbeat angle, and a handful of memorable scenes. --Robert Horton

5.0 out of 5 stars "I am the APEX predator!"
Reviewed in the United States on November 9, 2013

I finally watched this movie two nights ago after ordering it on blu ray, and I honestly love it. I dont know why it took me so long to see it. A gripping tale of angst and the notion of great power becoming corruptive, "Chronicle" tells the story of Andrew, Matt and Steve. Andrew is the teenage outcast who has no friends, lives with an abusive, out of work father who drinks excessively, and his mother is dying of a terminal illness. He takes to recording his miserable life with a video camera. Matt is his cousin, a cool kid who drives him back and forth to school and tries to look out for him. Steve is the popular kid running for class president. The three bond at a teenage rave, and soon discover a mysterious crater in the middle of a field one night. They explore the crater, go deep underneath it, and find a bizarre, crystallized object of unknown (possibly alien) origin.

Later, to their surprise, they realize the object has bestowed upon them strange superhuman abilities, chiefly telekinesis and the power to fly. At first, of course being teenagers, they use their powers to play pranks (Using leaf blowers to lift girls' skirts, move unsuspecting peoples' cars around in parking lots, etc), but Andrew, the most emotionally put-upon of the three, becomes reckless and Matt tries to convince him they need to use their power responsibly and secretly. Over time, Andrew exercises his power to the point where it becomes stronger and stronger. So does his inner rage. He lashes out at his father, and even Steve! With his mother increasingly sicker by the day, he decides to use his power for selfish, potentially criminal reasons, with tragic results. It all accumulates in a very well directed and acted destructive battle across the city between a now out of control, psychopathic Andrew and Matt, who must do all he can to rein him in and stop this tragic menace.

A great, even thought provoking screenplay by Max Landis and director Josh Trank, very strong performances by the three leads (Dane DaHaan as Andrew, Alex Russell as Matt and Michael B. Jordan as Steve), and amazing cinematography add to a fantastic film. Sometimes it's true what they say, "Power corrupts, but absolute power corrupts absolutely".

5.0 out of 5 stars Pretty good movie
Reviewed in the United States on March 5, 2022

This deserves 5 stars just for the fact that this has a semi-original plotline by using telekinesis and teenagers. It does descend into the cliche towards the end but it can be forgiven. I liked how it was paced, things progressed realistically. What I wonder is if he was corrupted by the power he had, if he was a sociopath and this was always going to be his destiny, or if he finally just "broke" because of his father. Ultimately it doesn't matter because I'm just always curious about something in movies. LOL As another reviewer had talked about, it would have been interesting to see the military get involved. They could have made a franchise with it. The 2nd movie could have focused on the military trying to catch him and the surviving friend. The 3rd could have shown the military experimenting on them trying to replicate their power. The 4th could have shown the military in possession of the rock, or whatever it was they touched in this movie, and the two friends completely brainwashed into being the military's newest weapon. It could have ended with the two friends destroying the military personnel wherever they were held and disappearing. Overall, this was a fun little movie to watch.

4.0 out of 5 stars Breathes new life into the superhero genre
Reviewed in the United States on March 23, 2012

What? The first truly great film of 2012 is a superhero movie? And the words "Dark Knight" and "Avengers" are nowhere to be found? Both of those surefire blockbusters will have a hard time measuring up to the energy and realism of Chronicle, a film that shows having superpowers is about more than vague slogans like "with great power comes great responsibility", it's a heavy burden and one not everybody is prepared to handle.

Over the last few years as comic book movies have all but overtaken Hollywood with brightly suited heroes in silly masks, only on occasion do we get one that dares to take a different approach. Movies like Kick-Ass and Super spring to mind, but those are really just deconstructions that don't take comic books seriously at all. Surprisingly, M. Night Shyamalan had the right idea a few years ago in what was quietly his best film, Unbreakable, a convincing and authentic look at the origins of a superhero and the man who would come to be his nemesis. With Chronicle, newcomer Joshua Trank has tapped into that same idea, only with a healthy dose of teenage hormones and emotional volatility.

For once, the annoying "found footage" sub-genre is put to solid use as Andrew(Dane Dehaan), a bullied social outcast begins documenting every moment of his life. He does it at first to capture the physical abuses by his father, but it isn't long before we see that there's no real escape for Andrew anywhere. He's treated just as badly at school, with his only friend being his popular cousin, Matt(Alex Russell). Andrew's barely contained anger and depression is only made worse by the worsening condition of his mother, slowly dying at home and the family unable to pay for the medications she needs.

Trying to break Andrew out of his funk, Matt takes him to a party, where he's introduced to the most popular guy in school, Steve(Michael B. Jordan). Tell him that he and Matt have founded something really cool out in the woods, Andrew reluctantly follows them into a cavernous sinkhole, where they discover a strange glowing object. Rather than doing the smart thing and running for the hills, they touch it, forcing it to emit a piercing shriek, knocking the boys unconscious.

Trank doesn't show us the immediate effects, instead skipping ahead in time, when the three have gained some knowledge of their mysteriously granted powers. In the beginning, these powers unite them as best friends, testing out their newfound abilities in silly exercises that could only spring from the mind of teenage boys, like creating a gust of wind to lift up cheerleaders' skirts. It isn't long before they start to figure out that their powers are growing exponentially the more they're used, almost like a muscle, and after Andrew goes a bit too far it's time to start setting some ground rules.

But if there's one thing angry youths don't like, it's a bunch of people telling them what to do. Especially when you've been held back for as long as Andrew has. Seeing his powers as not only a means of exacting vengeance against those who wronged him, but also as something of a birthright considering the turmoil he's lived through. Exploiting it just enough, he's happy with the limited amount of school-wide celebrity it affords him, but it's nothing like the real popularity of his two friends. Jealousy quickly gives way to rage, and soon Andrew is on a dangerous, super powered tailspin.

With a script co-written by Trank and Max Landis(the son of filmmaker John Landis), Chronicle puts a real world spin on what has always been the most interesting aspect of the superhero/supervillain divide, and that is how they came to be. The theory has always been that it takes a certain level of arrogance to become a hero, and an equal level of anguish to become a bad guy. In Chronicle, just as in most comic books, the one we deem the villain never sees himself as such, and it can be argued there isn't truly one in the film. Watching Andrew, Matt, and Steve develop into who they will ultimately become is consistently fascinating. While all three are perfectly cast, it's DeHaan who makes the biggest impression, and as Andrew his desperation to get out of his pathetic life is the film's driving force.

That's not to say it's all good. While Trank makes rational use of the handheld cam, there are some scenes where it's presence doesn't make a whole lot of sense, even for Andrew who seems to be obsessed with recording everything for some future audience. The introduction of a love story between Matt and and video blogger named Ashley goes nowhere, except to make her a potential damsel in distress. She would have been better used as a point of contention between the friends.

Still, these are minor complaints in a film that features a number of new faces I can't wait to see in other projects. While the budget isn't huge, Trank makes the most out of what are fairly simple special effects, saving the big stuff for the destructive finale that makes me think what a live-action Akira should look like. It's no wonder he's being looked at to possibly relaunch the Fantastic Four film franchise, as he knows exactly how to capture the wonder that comes with discovering the scope of amazing powers. As the boys put their strength to the test, they eventually learn to fly, and it's like we're right there with them as they savor this wondrous experience.

Clocking in at only 80 minutes, Chronicle doesn't get bogged down in deep messages, and yet it still manages to be one of the smartest superhero movies we've seen in a very long time.

Chronicle:

Wirklich beeindruckend was Josh Trank hier mit seinem Regiedebut abgeliefert hat, sein Film "Chronicle" verdient definitiv mehr Aufmerksamkeit. Von der Idee bis zur Umsetzung war es ein langer Weg, eigentlich sollten es virale Youtube-Videos werden, doch dann entschloss sich Herr Trank doch gleich dazu, seine Ideen zu einem Blockbuster zusammenzuschreiben. So entstand ein Film, der vor allem in der ersten Hälfte eines tut: Richtig viel Spaß machen. Der Protagonist ist ein wirklich interessanter Charakter - fast schon faszinierend, eine Charakterentwicklung mit so viel... Tiefgang möchte man fast schon sagen... ist selbst in Filmen von älteren Regiehasen noch selten, ich konnte wirklich mitfiebern, denn Chronicle hat mich absolut in seinen Bann gezogen. Wer es noch nicht weiß: Chronicle ist ein "Found-Footage Film", es wird also alles im Stile einer Handkamera dargestellt und gefilmt, eben so als hätte der Protagonist selbst alles gefilmt, was er ja auch tut, so viel kann man ja schonmal verraten. Doch die Story lässt es zu, dass es nicht wie üblich verwackelt ist, sondern sehr smooth und technisch hochwertig. Die Zielgruppe ist klar: Vor allem Jugendliche sollen hier angesprochen werden, doch auch ältere Semester könnten hier ihren Spaß haben, denn Chronicle sollte man vor allem dann ansehen, wenn man gut unterhalten sein will, dafür reicht er mindestens aus, wenn nicht sogar für mehr!

Das Steelbook:

Wie man auf der Produktabbildung von Amazon bereits erkennen kann sind FSK-Logo und blauer Blu-Ray Streifen oben entfernbar!
Abgebildet ist auf der Vorderseite also tatsächlich nur das angegebene Motiv und der Schriftzug - leider wieder mit dem bescheuerten deutschen Zusatztitel "Wozu bist du fähig?", das hätte man ruhig weglassen können, was haben die Deutschen nur immer mit ihren Zusätzen? Das frage ich mich schon seit "Carrie - des Satans jüngste Tochter".
Auch die Rückseite lässt nichts zu wünschen übrig - über die gesamte Fläche erstreckt sich das Bild, als Andrew ein Auto durch die Luft fliegen lässt, in der Mitte ungefähr wird das Motiv von einem Streifen durchquert, der 3 weitere Szenenbilder zeigt - alles im selben metallenen-blauen Look wie auf der Vorderseite. Die unteren 4 cm der Rückseite zeigen noch ein paar Credits, das 20th Century Fox logo und die üblichen Copyrightphrasen.
Auch die beiden Innenseiten sind bedruckt und zeigen das bekannte Szenenbild aus dem Trailer, auf dem Andrew mit seinen Kräften auf dem Schrottplatz das Auto zerquetscht, hammer!!!

Das Steelbook beinhaltet 2 Discs, zum einen die Blu-Ray mit dem Film:

Enthält die Extended- und die Kinofassung.
Kino-Fassung: 01:24:10
Extended-Fassung: 01:29:36

Da hätt ich mir doch ein wenig mehr erhofft als 5 Minuten und ein paar Zerquetschte, aber schonmal nicht übel und gut, dass überhaupt eine Extended Fassung veröffentlicht wurde.

Trailer:
This Means War
Three Stooges

Für die Auswahl zwischen Theatrical Version und Extended Version wurde extra ein kleines Menü gestaltet, welches mit Szenen vom Film hinterlegt ist - doch, bitte möglichst schnell weiterdrücken, denn diese Szenen verraten ein bisschen mehr gute Szenen, als mir lieb wäre. Danach gehts weiter zum Menü, welches im selben Stile ist.

Extras:
Deleted Scene - 00:01:10
Pre-SFX - 00:07:48 (Ein paar frühe Versionen mancher Spezialeffekte, ganz interessant, aber wie immer bei Extras bitte erst NACH dem Film ansehen, verrät sonst zu viel!
Camera-Test - 00:03:58 (Mehrere witzige Probeaufnahmen, super)
Theatrical Trailer - 00:02:08
Chronicle Soundtrack Info - Mehr oder weniger nur ein Bild mit Infos zum Soundtrack ~

Und zum anderen enthält das Steelbook noch die DvD mit dem Film.
Diese DvD enthält grundlegend die selben Extras, nur die Deleted Scene fehlt.
Die Extended Fassung ist auf der DvD NICHT enthalten, die DvD-Fassung umfasst lediglich 01:20:46 Stunden.

Uneingeschränkte Kaufempfehlung für dieses Steelbook, welches so ist wie jedes Steelbook sein sollte: Ohne aufgedrucktes FSK-Logo, ohne blauem Blu-Ray Streifen oben und mit einem Film drinnen, der einem gefällt. Top, top, top, ich bin mehr zufrieden!
