Autistic Reviewers Opinion Of This Movie.

Rating: 8/10 (7 April 2016)

I think we all remember the Hand held original movie "Cloverfield." To be honest I wasn't a fan. It didn't really move me nor have me on the edge of my seat. This one, however...in fact..DOES! What amazes me about this movie is how good the acting and pacing is! It keeps you hooked and wandering what will happen next. It's the story of a girl named Michelle who is driving late at night gets hit and wakes up in a basement room. She then learns that a man by the name of Howard saved her life and brought her her back to the house for safe keeping. We then start to see that Howard is not as nice as we would hoped he be. She then comes to realize that outside the house are alien life forms. Will she stay in the house with crazy Howard or will she go outside to face the aliens? The acting by John Goodman and Mary Elizabeth Winstead is brilliant. They both worked really well together. The direction was good, as was the choice of camera angles and the F/X.
Way better than the original CloverField. This one remains in one location the entire movie and manages to keep you glued to the screen. I thoroughly enjoyed this one. 8/10 4/5 stars. Highly recommended.
