What Were They Thinking?

Rating: 2/10 (17 March 2016)

"10 Cloverfield Lane" is nothing like "Cloverfield" ! I don't know why sites are giving it good ratings. I feel like I was tricked into seeing a movie I wouldn't ordinarily see. Imagine if you went to see a movie called Star Wars and turned out to be a claustrophobic sequel to "Signs."
By itself it would be an alright movie, but it didn't need to be a sequel to anything. The bunker part of the movie lasts way too long for it to be a sequel to Cloverfield. The acting is good. The movie did managed to make me uncomfortable. Towards the end it started to get better. Unfortunately the last 20 minutes is not the first 20 minutes. I found myself thinking "alright this is looking more like the kind of movie I was wanting to see" and then the movie was over.
