Just about bearable

Rating: 4/10 (7 June 2010)

The first thing to note is the "Shakey-cam" filming is very off-putting. Most users of hand-held recorders to tend to make sure that what they film can be viewed without the viewers deciding that the contents of their stomach's need to be examine by the floor. This does make it hard to see what is supposed to be going on.
Next thing is that the the characters aren't particularly interesting. Nor are they particularly bright : Trying to use a lift in a badly damaged build ? Stopping under a bridge when there is a slightly miffed monster around ? These are the actions of Homer Simpson, and hopefully not the average American, although saying that... One good thing about the person using the camcorder becoming a monster sandwich : The camera work is a bit more steady.
I didn't find it particularly frightening, nor interesting. There was too much talk and not enough action, particularly around the monster. I only saw it to the end to see what the monster looked like.
Its a film to watch once and then forget all about - or perhaps buy it for someone you don't like.
