Terrible.

Rating: 1/10 (18 January 2008)

Absolutely no plot. Just a bunch of CG fire and sparks...don't waste your time with this movie. I for one have had enough of movies of this type with no content to them...directors think they can throw some digital magic and viral marketing together to attract attention. Well, let Cloverfield be an example: it fails miserably. The film is left open-ended, with absolutely no explanation as to why any of the "plot" happened in the first place. Almost everything that takes place in the movie seems utterly random and disconnected. The filming gimmick (making the movie look like it was done on a home DV camera) shook the screen so much that it left many people I saw this with dizzy. It was very hard to follow - and I got tired of seeing split-second glimpses of everything. You never get a good look at anything interesting in the movie at all.
I was looking forward to seeing this, and it's been a while since I was so disappointed at the box office.
We got our money back at the theater afterward, and rightly so.
