Chronicle
4/10

The handy-cam works in someways but ruins this film in most. The entire screenplay and acting felt amateurish. They don't do anything major plot wise until the ending.

The human element was the best part of the movie, even though it was pretty typical.

This movie isn't more than a unique concept that got a green light.

I knew that TF3 was shot in 3D but this is George Lucas. I was hoping we would have done something that made it look good.

Ghost Rider 2/10 this movie sucked and after Catwoman it's IMO the worst comic book movie i've seen.

Experience is something you don't get until just after you need it.

My pleasure, chime in with your thoughts afterwards...watched it last night, and then watched several segments repeatedly afterwards...

Yes and I heard that some people that saw the advance screening of the second film said it's worse than the first one.

Dang...I was hoping the 2nd was at least an improvement on the 1st.

Kick Ass 10/10. Best comic based movie ever. Nothing has even came close to this movie and the enjoyment it gives me. I'd love to see a sequel.

Wow, bold statement Bulls.

I love it too but it got a bit hokey in parts for me (especially the end) so I can't rate it as perfect. Still a blast though. Certainlly one of the better comic to film adaptations and has one of, if not the best, comic book film score by John Murphy. There are still a handful of other comic book films I'd place above it though.

Oh and a sequel IS in the works BTW.

Glad too see someone loves this movie
I loved it too, not as much as you did, but I feel its still a bit underrated.

Reason why Kick ass is 10x better than chronicle

Chronicle takes itself too seriously, Kick-Ass doesn't

You should check out Defendor, its a similar concept. I thought it was awesome, much better than Super which is very similar.
