don't waste your money or your time

Rating: 1/10 (19 January 2008)

Cloverfield was like a bad mixture of the Blair Witch Project and the Godzilla remake. Sad part is, both of those movies, which are not great movies, are much better than Cloverfield. Between the obvious product placements, the unlikelihood that anyone would actually carry around a video camera during all this "chaos", and the first 30 minutes of torture you must endure to get to any action, I thought my head would explode. Nothing original, as others have mentioned. Only a lot of other ideas combined into one bad experience. I'm mad at myself for being talked into seeing this fiasco. Watch the trailer. It's better than the entire movie and you'll save yourself money and a headache. AWFUL!
