Cloverfield

Rating: 6/10 (23 May 2013)

This film is presented as found footage from a personal video camera recovered by the United States Department of Defense. The video consists chiefly of segments taped night of Friday. The first video segment starts when Rob wakes up on the morning of Monday, having slept with Beth, previously platonic friend. They make plans to go to Coney Island that day. The footage cuts to May 22, when Rob's brother Jason and his girlfriend Lily prepare a farewell party for Rob who will be moving to Japan. After Beth leaves the party, an apparent earthquake strikes and the city grieve a brief power outage. The film then cuts to the footage of Rob and Beth's Coney Island. Then, something falls from the sky into the ocean. This is a so mysterious occasion. Rob and Beth can be in danger and this footage can effect negatively their life. Somebody can use this footage to their hostility. I consider that mysterious occasions would continue dis-concertedly if the film went on longer. However it contains exotic and so amazing stages.
