Yes, I saw Cloverfield.
I’m still not sure how to react. I’m stunned. Flumoxxed. Weirded out. Well. How do I put it? It was certainly different.
But never fear. I will not spoil you with anything. In fact, Cloverfield is the kind of film where the less you know, the better it is.
One thing. It’s such a 9/11 allusion. No wonder some New Yorkers are not amused.
Boooom. Crash!! Remember: monster is more important than everything else.
Yes, Eyeris is right – just throw in a couple of unknown actors and a monster and you get instant hit. Of course, be sure to conduct an extremely successful viral campaign first.
But seriously, directors should stop thinking that hand-held, shaky cam cinematography is cool. It’s not.
But still, if it’s not shaky cam then it’s a different kind of movie. U know. Godzilla comes to mind.
Cos watching Cloverfield is an experience. How you feel after the experience is something else.
I think it’s the kind of movie that will polarise people. That’s for sure.
Another early thought. Spoiler free.
Proper review coming on Thursday. Until then, cross your fingers.
it may be lame, but it’s still one hell of a ride, I must say. hehe
well i saw it and i loved it in fact i loved the monster… The thing about the monster is i think the monster was a baby and it was crying out to its mother and that i think the monster was freaked out because it is in a world that it has no clue how it got there and how to get Back so Yeah thats what i Think
