The whole movie was unbelievable. Of coarse I’m not talking about the monster, I’m talking the human responses to the situations. I’m not going to sit here and point them all out because I would be typing for hours. The end... Full review

Not only was this movie horrible, but it was hard to follow and rough on the eyes. The fact that they used a very unstable video camera throughout the entire movie gave me a headache. It was hard to tell exactly... Full review

I've learned my lesson. I rented this movie because the critics said it was good. The Critics these days are the worst Ive seen. They're a bunch of story tellers and half the time clueless. CLoverfield was a Class B movie.... Full review

The film's conceit is....The scenes of catastrophe in Manhattan are superbly created, equalling anything in recent disaster movies.....Cloverfield has most things I deplore about movies and a couple of things I admire.....This over-statement (of understated filmmaking, ironically enough) is one of the things I deplore about the movie..... ...

It's a disaster thriller that wisely shows just enough of its central monster (that is to say, not much at all) to keep the flames of fear burning throughout. Some of the special effects are truly astonishing, and Reeves' use of limited perspective and light is downright masterful. ... Full Review

They would love me to do it next so that's what we're shooting for at the moment. On adapting the story for an American audience: "The movie and the book are incredibly Swedish yet there's something so universal about the tale of this kid and something that in the context of an American story could be completely different while being very consistent with the original story. ...
