(Fave movie-quote) - "You don't know what's out there!"
Welcome To 10 Cloverfield Lane.... Now, I wouldn't ever say that I loved this Sci-Fi/Thriller - But, I would like to say that this was certainly one of those rare films from that genre where (for a change) it appeared that some real thought had actually gone into its story-line.
Yeah. And, when it came down to playing the "is-it-or-isn't-it-a-hoax?" game with the audience - I thought that 10 Cloverfield Lane certainly did deliver a satisfying 110 minutes of entertaining diversion.
Yes. There definitely were some very disappointing and demented moments in this taut tale of apparent global Armageddon - But as the mounting suspense soon took a firm hold in the action - I chose to forgive this film for all of its unavoidable inadequacies.
My one big complaint here comes down to the miscasting of John Goodman as the "Thomas" character. To me, Goodman was just too much of a tired, old, bloated couch-potato to be at all believable in his part.
