Cloverfield

Well finally saw it. Pick from the vid shop by theWife.

Have to say ... I liked it! Sure the camera wobbles got some getting used to but the acting was pretty good, special effects were neato, and you had just the right balance of hidden Vs disclosure on the roving maguffin.

Worth watching.

  1. Did you feel like after all the hype, the discovery of what is actually doing the destruction was kind of a let down? I did.

  2. The image quality for a domestic video camera was excellent.
    Especially during lowlight :)

  3. Well I never expected to see the critter in question. But then I read a review loaded with spoilers first so I went in with knowledge.

    I guess that changes the view of it.

  4. We were a bit disappointed with it really. It was compelling but then just finished at which point you realised there wasn't much story. The 59 story building thing was hard to swallow too. The concept was interesting but aside from that it was pretty poor I thought.
