Blew me away

Rating: 8/10 (26 January 2008)

You know when you leave a movie and you can't stop talking about it? Or when the only words that come to your mind afterward are "I feel so insignificant?" This was one of those times. Shocks and thrills and characters you fell in love with. This movie had everything.
I went into it not knowing that it was a monster movie. The friend I went with had already seen it twice and didn't know that. It definitely made things a lot more exciting for me. I was jumping out of my seat at times. The best part about it was that there was no soundtrack so you didn't know when things were going to happen. There was no build up and the first time you saw Cloverfield's face, I literally screamed.
I want more movies like this. I don't care how many potholes you can find in it, I believed it. I walked out of the theater into broad daylight completely different than how I walked in. I know it didn't happen. But is it wrong to say that I wanted it to? Everything about Cloverfield was amazing and I could definitely watch it multiple times. See it.
