Very cool.

Rating: 9/10 (21 January 2008)

Upon seeing the TV spot for Cloverfield, my first immediate thought was, damn, not another Godzilla movie. My friend dragged me to watch it, and i was pleased that he did. Cloverfield was intense and original, with the whole film shot in a first person view. Instead of the normal bombing of huge monsters, that we often see in other shows, Cloverfield gives us an offering of the feel of being IN the movie, experiencing the fear and excitement. The actors were all pretty decent too, and there wasn't a moment of boredom in the show, even before the appearance of the movie. Fantastically scripted and shot, the best movie I have personally watched these few months, and i very much hope there is a sequel.
9/10
