JJ you're a genius!

Rating: 10/10 (18 January 2008)

First off, most of the crowd boo'd at the ending and I laughed quietly to myself. I don't know if I'm going to throw in spoilers, I hope I don't, but here it goes.
I know the previous comment on here stated that there's nothing to the film, and he's right! However, he must be an untrained eye to what has begun. Indeed there was no true story line, in the traditional sense. Most people look to follow a chain of events to portray the story line, things occurring to the characters to draw you in to who they are. That's not JJ.
I believe it was at ComiCon where JJ stated that he was jealous of the Godzilla franchise. What does that mean to you? To myself, it means only one thing. He's not done. JJ is a brilliant man who knows how to grab someone's attention with something tragic. Take for example Lost. The first episode gave you nothing about the tragic event that occurred, just information. The following episodes gave you a little more, then a little more, then answered a question or two and then gave you eight more. He's given us information here. Pay attention to the film from the beginning. You can see where I'm going if you remember.
He gave us a monster, a beauty at that if I might say. From my stand point, the story wasn't about the people, it was about the monster. We don't need to know about them. Focus on the monster people! It's not the last time we'll see him/her/it.
I hope I didn't spoil anything for you. Trust me, it's a need to see if you know how the man works his magic.
