Are you serious? This was an EXCELLENT movie. A great monster movie!

All this buzz about camera shake and blah blah blah is absurd. I despise it myself, however I could NOT peel my eyes away from the action. The camera movement and angles had you ducking and contorting your head to see what was around the corner or trying to see that extra little bit that was hidden. It made the viewer pay attention.

It added a certain element to the film that would not have been achievable any other way. Slow and steady does not always win the race


Don't base whether you are going to see this film on the shake. If you do, you will be disappointed. I sincerely hope there is a sequel that lives up to the first film or better.

There are so many un-answered questions that were left. Where did this guy come from? What happened? Are there more? Etc etc
