Cloverfield - Talk to me!
I have just watched Cloverfield for the first time. My first impression is this film is made by someone who has just watch The Blair Witch Project, Godzilla and Starship Troopers all back to back.
I am a bit puzzled as to why this film ever got made. It's not exactly original and does not break any new ground what with the shaky camerawork focusing on a small group of individuals, the monster whose obvious parallels to Godzilla movies does not need explaining. I even thought that the small creatures which attacked the people were miniature versions of the creatures from Starship Troopers.
The worse thing for me is that this film has been left open for a sequel.
I am guessing that there will be people out there who enjoyed and loved this film, what interests me now is how one would extoll the virtues of this film.
My mind is open and awaiting interesting discourse.
