Magnificent Mayhem

Rating: 10/10 (18 January 2008)

Simply one of the best films ever made. Packed house at Pleasure Island. See it in Digital. Exciting while being well paced. Romantic while not being sappy. Tender while being tough. Just like the name Cloverfield, the movie conjures up uncertain, ill defined images and internal reactions. It is the perfect analogy for today's listless world.
It was a pleasure to see a film which fully utilized the movie watching experience.
Stay until the end credits for a mysterious clue and an amazing piece of music titled "Roar."
If nothing else, the overture theme should be nominated for an Oscar.
