Downsized Cloverfield

Rating: 2/10 (17 June 2011)

As a huge fan of Cloverfield movie i expected that Super 8 will deliver at least as same full of dramatic twists movie as Cloverfield did. It's not. Actually that delivers - but in a downsized mode. Scenario is similar - group of guys , some alien, bunch of explosions and dramatic moments but overall execution of the movie looks like this: take Cloverfield, remove all gore and blood scenes, reduce scales of everything and add a pack of kid talks, kid smiles, kid's eyes, flat family drama moments - voilà - result is boring, predictable and very artificial. Really disappointed by this predictable movie may be because of my big expectations.
