It's a love story with the monster as a sideshow. Yes you get to see the monster, but it doesn't even touch on what the monster is, where did it come from, why is it attacking Manhattan, etc. I didn't go to see the movie just to see a monster being hit by missiles, but that's what the movie really is. Who gives a shit about the love story, I want the monster to be the star of the movie, not a bunch of yuppies with relationship problems.
A real disappointment. Not worth my 10 bucks.
i wouldnt go watch it if someone paid me $20 to. the whole "unsteady cam" thing does not make a realistic film. paying to see such a film does not make a lot of sense.
that's just stupid...
due to the intentional shaky camera work. One of the guys who came with us had to move to the back or center of the theater to keep from getting sick as well.
I had to follow.
If you see this movie and you're easily effected by motion sickness....then sitting farther away from the screen might help.
OK... Now my opinion about the
story, etc... I liked the strong
love that Bob felt for Beth and the
true commitment from his friends
to help him find her in the cites rubble. Subtle clever ending as well
Monster?????? I was Very disappointed. Not because of the way it looked but because of the lack of screen time it had. And they still didn't show it very clearly
in the little time it did have.
From what little I saw of it.....
it didn't look very interesting anyways. I saw alot of other conceptual art of the Monster on the internet that looked better than the guy in the movie.
Yes...I went to Toys R Us to search for a Cloverfield Monster Toy. I thought perhaps I can see the monster better and maybe have
a more positive comment about the thing.
Music?!!!!!!! The Music during the end credits was extremely......
Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It sounded like they were trying
for an Akira Ifukube sound. Ifukube
did the music to most of the Godzilla movies.
Overall about the movie....?
Although the movie itself was
pretty good, I was more entertained
and impressed by their marketing strategy. It made me feel very ...giddy.
Kinda like before Christmas morning. But...I also beleave
that if you hype a movie up like they did..... then you better have an equal pay off. I don't think the film matched the hype it created.
I saw "Mad Money"(comedy) yesterday
It actually had me more on the edge of my seat than Cloverfield.
Cloverfield is worth seeing at least once.
Thanks for taking the time to
read my thoughts on this flick.
Megafant.

the film suffers from monotonous dialogue from people who would be lucky to hold a job down at micky d's. The visual effects are quite good but the main characters are what really let this film down. godzilla (the remake) had the same problem among other things.
If a sequel is born from this they should hire someone who can write a believable story around interesting!!! characters who you wouldn't want to forget. I'd also agree that the creature needs more airtime.
