Cloverfield The Blair Witch of Monster Movies (maybe a slight spoiler warning is there to be safe)

Rating: 5/10 (21 January 2008)

I went into this movie with high expectations and can only say that this movie greatly disappointed. To be completely honest i actually enjoyed this movie until it ended and this is where i have my beef with it, which in turn ruined the entire movie for me. No explanation is ever given for the entire event. It is simply them running and action happening but no explanations, no plot development, no real insight into why it happened, how it happened, the aftermath of it all or even what the thing was. The way the movie was shot and how it ended also left a distinct Blair Witch feeling about the whole ordeal. If your looking for pure action, which is still mediocre at best then this movie may be interesting to you. However if you are looking for a solid monster movie with plot and reason to coexist with the action sequences then skip this movie.
