By the end I really liked it...

Rating: 6/10 (10 April 2008)

I almost didn't get past the first fifteen minutes of this film. The opening scenes are so hokey and badly acted I almost gave up. The director seemed intent on doing every stupid cliché about people filming themselves. But once the action starts you can ignore the acting, and the dialog, and the movie starts to become fun. It's a clever idea the first person view of a monster attacking the city.
However, I guess they figure with a monster movie suspension of disbelief is not high up on the list of requirements, they kept doing really stupid things like when a girl gets an iron bar through her chest but can still run like an Olympic athlete after wards.
It just goes to show Hollywood would have been dead and buried long ago if they had to rely on good scripts or directing. Digital effects are the only thing that keep that place going.
