Cloverfield is the Apocolypto to Blair Witch's 10,000 BC...

Rating: 10/10 (7 June 2008)

It took moving the young crying hipsters out of the woods to the concrete jungle for a truly magnificent update/homage to the style of Blair Witch's cinematic verite in a docudrama of fear and survival of a scared group of characters running for their lives from an unknown monster. Enough said. See it!
I enjoyed 10,000 BC, I enjoyed Blair Witch... but Apocolypto (damaged from director Mel Gibson rant) was sadly a film seen mostly on cable and DVD. Blair Witch -- was seen by everyone and had very mixed reviews from audiences around the globe -- but it did prepare viewers (as does reality TV) for the hand-held dynamic style seen throughout Cloverfield. SEE IT NOW!
