Interesting but padded

Rating: 7/10 (13 January 2017)

"10 Cloverfield Lane" is a superior example of the kind of story that would have made it into a half an hour on a show like "The Twilight Zone" or "The Outer Limits". For some reason most horror/sci-fi movies these days have that feeling, like what you're seeing would have been far more effective at a shorter run time, and the idea doesn't really sustain a feature length.
I guess kids today, who didn't grow up with shows like that, may not have the same impression.
The story is interesting enough, and is largely held together by the unsettling performance of John Goodman. The ending is also a show stopper, though the movie has some padding on the way there that may make your interest wane.
