Is this worth a hype?

Rating: 5/10 (19 August 2008)

After seeing the trailer for this flick we thought it was worth waiting for. At last, available here in Belgium but what a disappointment it was. Knowing the director for the sublime 'Alias' this flick is just one to see and to forget. It starts out fine by getting to understand the individuals and suddenly hell breaks out. After the first attack of the monster a cellphone is ringing and suddenly it's all about romantic. It made me think of that other crap 'Godzilla the remake'. there is no gore let's even say any suspense in this flick. It's normal that this one will be compared with Blair Witch but BWP was at least creepy. I understand that in the US people were talking about the attack on NY remembering 9/11. I'm glad that I have seen the movie but will not buy it and will never have any moment of wanting to see it again. And knowing that they are talking about Cloverfield 2 only makes me shiver, no thanks
