Cloverfield

This movie was directed by Matt Reeves and is an action, thriller, sci fi movie starring some less familiar actors to me such as Lizzy Caplan (Marlena Diamond), Jessica Lucas (Lily Ford), T.J. Miller (Hud Platt), Michael Stahl-David (Rob Hawkins) and some others. The movie is kind of simple, a monster attacks New York City and the story unfolds among a small group of people with a video camera. Unfortunately the Cloverfield monster was hard to please, I mean all King Kong seemed to want was a girlfriend. But anyhow the movie itself has the perspective of a regular video camera so the picture is shaky, which I thought kind of got old after a while. It seemed to me that the movie needed more elements such as information about the monster and more of an ending. The movie was a lot like Godzilla through one characters own video camera. But anyhow it was kind of fun wondering what was going to happen with the monster and characters, which probably made the ticket worthwhile enough but I don't think I would brag to much about Cloverfield.
