Cloverfield or The Monster From New York.Who Ate Your Money

Rating: 1/10 (19 September 2010)

With the exception of the last 20 minutes of film, this movie is a complete waste of time. Over-hyped as a "Blair Witch" clone, told in a hand held jittery camera fashion, enough to give you motion sickness, Cloverfield is full of sizzle but not much substance.
Filled with 5 stereotypes, the obstinate counter culture Rob Hawkins(Michael-Stahl David), Jason Hawkins(Mike Vogel), the hot chicks, Lily Ford(Jessica Lucas) and Marlena Diamond(Lizzy Caplan) along with Hudson Platt(T. J. Miller) .
No explanations given as to why the creature(s) are there and why destruction seems to be their number 1 objective.
New York doesn't need more monsters, just a good story without fabricated teaser scenes. Save your time and money and find a better film to watch. 1 star.
