I know many are tired of this gimmick but I think this trailer is really well-done. I like how it takes a serious turn, the setup is interesting and the final few shots are pretty cool.

I'd watch it. Looks pretty cool...strangely I do like the "found footage" movies but hated the Blair Witch movie and Paranormal Activity. I like the genre though.

It looks amusing. But I can see it getting boring real fast.

There are good found footage movies and reallly bad ones, this trailer looked interesting though. I'm just not sure if I'll want to see this premise feature length. Kind of cool how they show what would really happen if teens had these powers (being dicks to everyone) until one becomes all mopey and evil I guess.

Has potential, though the CGI where he is crushing that car just looks horrible. It's like the car is made out of construction paper.

Would be better as a short film. The trailer was good enough for me. Kids find a UFO, get powers, abuse powers, bad things happen. No reason to watch another 2 hours.

That looks awesome!
It looks like only parts of it is found footage. Who's filming when all 3 dudes are in the shot?

I was hoping they didn't come across something that gave them their abilities, but that it would make a nice companion piece to Unbreakable. Like one of the kids is David's son or something.

It's kind of like that Voltron thing that's floating around. It was a pretty cool 2 minute film, but I really don't know if I would want to watch 2 hours of it. The whole left up to the imagination thing works sometimes.
