i like cloverfield... yeah it kinda suffers from the curse of the blair witch but it has so much more story than that piece of cr@p it dont really matter. I didnt really like the first 20 minutes and i dont really like any of the characters... but the film is good, the ending works well (even down to the clip of something landing in the sea behind the ferris wheel... why couldnt it just be something from the deep.... something that has always been there....waiting!!!)
i was worried the film would con us with suspense the way blair witch did, but at least it delivers with some good monster footage....getting right in there with it at the end! every other hollywood moster movie of the last 30 years has been fairly predictable and pretty cr@p from the scepticle view of hindsight...cloverfield is the same thing from a whole new angle... not as good as the host though which really works as a straightforward monster movie from a different cultural viewpoint!!!
