What the hell was that..?

Rating: 7/10 (20 January 2008)

What's the buzz, tell me what's a happening, what's the buzz ...
To put it simply, Cloverfield is Blair With Project and Godzilla with big budget. Everyone who saw this movie in the cinema either found it very creatively executed or a waste of time. I found it intriguing and engaging.
Although at the beginning of the movie, not knowing what to expect, I felt dizzy after a few minutes into the scenes. I had to close my eyes occasionally to keep myself from getting nauseated. Just as I was regretting a little at this technique of story telling then it got all exciting and I forgot all about the swinging and shaking of the camera.
It was done pretty well and believable throughout the entire movie. The only thing that I expected more of was the monster itself. I thought it could have looked better.
If this had been just another monster movie like Godzilla, War Of The Worlds or King Kong then there wouldn't have been so much hype about it to make it one of the most outstanding creature features for all times.
