10 Cloverfield Lane

Rating: 10/10 (16 March 2016)

"10 Cloverfield Lane" is directed by Dan Trachtenberg and stars John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead and John Gallagher Jr. And that is pretty much it. John Gallagher Jr. is good in this movie, Mary Elizabeth Winstead is great, and John Goodman is probably Oscar- worthy. This is the debut film of Dan Trachtenberg, who has proved himself a phenomenal director with this movie. I cannot remember the last time I saw a film that was as thrilling, intense, and suspenseful due to Trachtenberg's directing. This film not only contains great acting and directing, but also great cinematography as well as stunning visual and sound effects. The movie also has a riveting screenplay that conveys so many emotions while still being a great story. This is a great film that I would highly recommend for anyone who loves thrillers, suspenseful films, intense films, and just all around great films. This is one of my favorite, if not my favorite movie of the year so far, and I think everyone should see it, especially if you can see it on an IMAX screen for a more immersive experience. However, please note that this is NOT a sequel to the 2008 film Cloverfield. In fact, you don't even need to see Cloverfield to enjoy this film. Go see this film and you will enjoy it.
