Cloverfield

Amazingly shot, seamless special effects. Not for the faint of heart (or stomach). Intense intense intense. The ending is perfect, despite what your friends might say.

Apparently to make a fair review I must trash this movie somehow. For those with motion sickness or who don't like shaky cameras, I still highly recommend this movie albeit with a barf bag. (it would still be so worth it)

That being said the sound is absolutely phenomenal. Any able-bodied adult should be watching this movie in a theater. There are no excuses.

Score: 4 statue of liberty heads (out of 5)

A daring dose of dialogue

"What is that?"
"It's a terrible thing."
"Oh my God! What is that?"
"I don't know! Something else! Also terrible."

Drew Goddard made it up, Matt Reeves made it scary, Michael Stahl-David, T.J. Miller, Odette Yustman and Lizzy Caplan made it hot.

And gross.
