Cloverfield

Okay, here’s the thing about ‘Cloverfield’.

It isn’t a bad movie… but it isn’t great. I can’t even call it good. It’s just… there.

I spent the last month or so trying to avoid spoilers, and you know what? In the end, there’s nothing to spoil. There is absolutely nothing unique or original about this movie that I can think of.

And am I missing something here, or did the movie start by saying the footage was found on an “digital SD card camcorder”, but during the movie it keeps rewinding and fastforwarding and recording over bits of existing footage and… man, I don’t know.

I can’t fault the filming techniques or the special effects. They were awesome. But everything else… this movie was exactly as good as ‘The Blair Witch Project’. Take from that what you will.

P.S. Cloverfield sucks.
