Nervous Guy Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 I was satisfied with Cloverfield. Seriously? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Cat Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Seriously? Seriously. Aside from the fact that the camcorder used would have run out of battery/tape about half way through the film. Name for me a better American monster-disaster film from the last 10 years. Of course it's going to be cheesy at times, and of course the acting is going to be wooden. Getting past those things, I was satisfied. Not blown away. Satisfied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chilly Posted July 10, 2008 Share Posted July 10, 2008 Seriously? Me too. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartshan-83 Posted July 11, 2008 Share Posted July 11, 2008 Me too. Thoroughly enjoyed it. Absolutely agree. I don't need movies that are wrapped up with a bow and the audience is given an answer sheet. I thought it was a great flick and I loved that it left so many questions. But when I read/heard others' views on it, the vast majority was pounding on it for the same reasons I liked it. I liked that they used a no name cast. I like that they stayed true to the concept ("this is probably how YOU really would react if this happened and you had a camera"). And I liked that it kept me wondering when I left the theater. Movies like that are good for a change of pace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The monster was pretty sweet, and concealing its appearance during the early promos made for an exciting release. When the movie began, I thought to myself- "Oh boy, here we go. A cheesy love story and some far-fetched plot I don't/won't give a SH-T about." But then as the movie un-folded, I was surprised at the gravity some of the character relationships held. Granted, I watched the movie using the same cheese-filter I used at Indy this summer! Nevertheless, it was short (read: didn't drag on), made its point, and stuck to its guns. Quite satisfying indeed. I doubt I'll ever see "Quarantined." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
