Cloverfield (I) (2008)
5/10
Disappointing
30 April 2008
******MAY CONTAIN A SPOILER OR TWO****** Without too many spoilers, and to the point-very disappointing. It did not make me sick, it was not that bad; the shaking of the camera. The only story is a party with a bunch of college folks and the attack. Nothing more is known. You do not see the monster much, and even then, it is with the shaky camera. I understand the director wanting us to feel like we were a part of the devastation, but really, the monster should have been seen a lot more. All you are seeing is a person carrying a video camera recording everyone around him dying and running. Not much action, just a lot of yelling, running, screaming and buildings collapsing. I must say, I actually thought Godzilla was better. With all the hype before this movie came out, I, like a lot of folks, was so looking forward to seeing it...but, alas, it is such a disappointment. Sorry J.J., I really hope Star Trek will be better than this.
