Chronicle more than lives up to its terrific trailer, which only hinted at the superb entertainment offered by this film from start to finish. It is driven by three immensely energetic, fresh and amiable lead performances, a tight screenplay and remarkably assured direction throughout. The shift to an increasingly darker tone is handled very well, drama and humour are very effectively balanced, and - punching far above its budget - delivers a powerful climax. It is ultimately a slight and simple movie, but Chronicle is hugely entertaining and very enjoyable.
