Free tickets and I still demanded a refund!

Rating: 1/10 (27 January 2008)

Normally I trust the IMDb comments and rating to rely on making the most of my movie-going experiences. Cloverfield is the first and hopefully last movie where the raters had it wrong, big time.
Wow. I haven't seen a movie this pointless in a long time. Yes there may have been some potentially cool effects but they were almost always ruined by the shaky camera work. My wife had to leave 10 minutes into it because of the motion sickness and I wish I had gone with her. It would have made getting my money back easier.
I felt like a sucker and as I left the theater I felt like grabbing the shoulders of the people in line and shaking them while begging them not to punish their senses by voluntarily subjecting themselves to the mindless assault.
We used credit card points to get the tickets but that didn't stop me from asking for a set of free passes for next time.
