Don't listen to all these people who were saying Cloverfield was bad. It was actually amazing. I can't wait until it comes out on DVD.
Anyway..
Cloverfield is something I have never seen before in my life. It's original, scary, suspenseful, sad, uplifting, laughable. It is original because of the whole idea of the movie. Yes it's another monster movie, but how it was filmed is something new. It was scary because come on a huge monster attacking Manhattan. There were some parts I jumped out of my seat.
I love how the movie completely takes you in a new world. I felt as if I was in the movie with all the characters. There were a couple of times my friend and I would look at each other and say we felt like we were about to run out of the theater lol. I just couldn't take my eyes off of the screen for a second.
Now the movie is really about the characters which was interesting. Rob and Beth were exes that still loved each other. Jason is Rob's brother who is dating Lily. Then there is the one and only HUD who is great comic relief throughout the movie. There were times I would be freaking out and Hud would just say something and I couldn't stop laughing. He was the best character in my opinion. Lastly, Marlena who is just sarcastically funny. She reminds me of my best friend so I really enjoyed her character.
Enough of me rambling but I will say again this movie was amazing and everyone should just go into the theater with an open mind and really concentrate on the characters more so than the monster.
