Something had found us.....Dan Trachtenberg.

Rating: 8/10 (19 March 2016)

10 Cloverfield Lane is the spiritual sequel to the 2008 found footage monster movie Cloverfield, featuring the very scary John Goodman, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, and John Gallagher, Jr. It follows the events of a young woman who wakes up in an underground bunker after a car crash, and discovering Howard (Goodman) who claims that some unique event has wiped out everything on the surface and poisoned the air.
'Monsters come in many forms' they do indeed in this intense, suspenseful thriller (horror). First, it does not need any viewers to see the previous film, I believe though they are completely different films.
So hats off to Dan Trachtenberg's gripping debut as he directs an experience we will never forget. John Goodman makes the best performance I have ever seen from the fine actor (have not seen to many Goodman films, but enough), as he shows of a psychotic Norman Bate of himself. As soon as you see him you know this character is not right, actually prefer to be fighting monster instead. Mary Elizabeth Winstead, also gives a great performance as well as we share the experience with her, and almost imagine ourselves in her position.
The film is really intense, and will always keep you on your toes, for whatever comes your way. What makes the narrative so good is that if focuses on what's happening elsewhere when the world is going to hell, and ask you where would you rather be, underground or on land, trust me after seeing this film, you may not know.
However, I can't say the film is a must see, but if you like a great intense experience, then this is perfect for you. I'm not sure about how the film end either, but the film overall is still really good, and a 9/10.
