Plot: Revolves around a monster attack in New York as told from the point of view of a small group of people.
I hope they make another one because there was too much slow boring scenes and not enough action scenes.
it wasn't that bad......it wasnt that good either..where did the monster come from and where did it go..................
wow that was very great film that j.j. abrams who prdoucer that film about people shock what happening they wanna to know what going on...however it found out and it an giant creature in new york.
this film familiar to "the blair witch project"(cause of a still filming that holding a video camera rest of the film), "godzilla"(kinda of a giant creature),
and "starship trooper"(that little creature look-like)
some thing has found us.
This film is something like: "The Blair Witch Project" meets "Godzilla", the film is better than I expected I liked how they made that the film looks like a documentary, Cloverfield has some goods CGI effects and good performances.
I really don't know what to make of this movie. Using a handheld camera sure made it suspenseful, but not incredibly suspenseful. It's a very interesting take on giant monster film, although those really cliched insect things makes your eyes want to roll in their sockets (I thought I exterminated all of them in Resident Evil 4... anyways...). A bit inconclusive, but hey! there's a sequel, maybe we'll get answers then.

Cloverfield was better than what I expected, and although, the camera work got a little tough to deal with, I couldn't see this movie work any other way.
What I found irritating though, how the film followed just one group of people. How far could they have traveled in the course of one night? But the monster was always right where they were. A little too coincidental. But according to the extras on the DVD, the monster is just a baby that was confused and scared and that's why it was rampaging across New York. It would have been better if it was shot from different people with cameras, maybe.
But since seeing this, now I'm kinda interested in knowing more. Where did it come from? If it was just an infant monster, where was the parent/s and why was it dropping those smaller monsters? Secrets for the seqeuls, I guess.
I totally think this movie is a must see if you like monsters in general or is you just like movies i could see almost anyone liking this movie
So I finally saw this movie and I was impressed. The actors were largely unknown (although Lizzy Caplan should be recognizable) but I thought the performances were pretty solid. Better than some very well known "actresses" (cough,cough... Hilton... cough). Don't let someone's lack of renown sway your opinion. Anyways, the monster design was less than inspired, but the action was sufficiently exciting. Some scenes were truly awe-inspiring and the events that unfold make you yearn to see what happens next. I also quite like the approach the film-makers had when they kept much of the information about the creature from the audience. After all, it was just following the path of random civilians caught up in the mess. Good film that nailed what it was going after. I recommend you go in to see this with your head not up your ass. Then, make you judgment accordingly whether you like it or not. Any movie is better that way.
does it really matter how old you are or how manny DVDs u have? hounestly your opinion is just like everyone eltses we all have the right to say what we want but you just havr to be plain ignorant
After reading the comments made i was shocked by the personal comments not the reviews(burymeinblack3 esp) the size of your collection doesn't make you ruler of all that you see. Everyone is allowed their own opinion, thats the point of film, theatre & media. You could have 1 DVD and you would still be entitled to say how you feel. Some find that camera work sickening (like blairwitch) some don't. Some thought it was great, some didn't. Write how it affected you. A professional reviewer is looking for the objective at action, story and character development, story arcs, art direction, writing, cinematography and a whole load of other things. Then they add how they felt about it. They give an opinion. And as for the 'respect your elders' bit then i out age you with just as many videos & dvds. Also i work in theatre, tv and film so i am putting my ideas and passions into my life. No need for bad language. Try to say something personal,polite & constructive.
people should use punctuation marks they shouldnt keep their sentences running on and on and on and on without even the courtesy of some capital letters there is a reason for the english grammar and syntax we learn in school no matter how profound our message is it will always be marred without the proper use of language mechanics
If you got motion sick watching this movie you are weak. And if you watch after the credits you learn where the monster comes from, I didnt see it but its said to be there. Pst, it came from space.
