I have to admit I was disappointed with this movie. But it was good. I just woulda liked to see more then what they showed. Jenny's last blog post..MommyFest 2008 Has Begun!

All I know is that Cloverfield was one of the most original and creative movies I've seen in a long time and was a real treat to see in the theaters. Bush Mackel's last blog post..Driving Around in My Automobile

I like Bush's idea of the sequel just beginning where the first left off. Or I like the idea of a time line that isn't in chronological order (think Pulp Fiction). If that happened, we may be able to follow another person's journey. After all, something could have happened with those missiles that kept the monster from being destroyed. We can hope :) Erina Hart's last blog post..The Ants Go Marching?

I haven't gotten a chance to see Cloverfield yet, but I want to. I don't think the shaky camera will bother me either... I loved 28 Weeks Later (and 28 Days Later, of course!), and that is one with a shaky camera that many people complained about. I think it makes you feel more involved in what is happening to the characters. I think I'll go put Cloverfield on my Netflix queue.

Hey, buddy! I agree the ending was sort of a cliffhanger, though I think you’re left with a pretty good idea of what happens ;)

Cloverfield was AWESOME. I esp like how they really didn't "end" it per se. So hopefully when it comes to sequel time, we can all just jump back into it! Bush Mackel's last blog post..Samba De Amigo Coming to the Wii

Hi Erina! Good to see ya again :)

I didn’t like the smaller monsters quite as much either. I think mainly because of that creepy sound they made..lol. The big one was definitely really impressive though. I thought it was cool how it was hardly ever the focus of scenes, but just there in the background enough to be seen causing all kinds of mayhem.

I liked the film so much, I’ve already watched it four times :D

Hey, Mike! I saw Cloverfield, and I enjoyed it, too. Like you, the shaky camera didn't bother me. I thought it added character to the shots. My roommate and I are huge monster fans. Therefore, we were really excited to finally see the beast. While I wasn't too fond of the little monsters, the big one was pretty gruesome. I liked its limbs. They floundered about in interesting ways. Whoever (or whatever team) created that monster really did a great job. Also, I just wanted to tell you that this was a great movie review. You made it interesting, without giving too much away. That's talent, my friend, and it's all yours! Erina Hart's last blog post..The Ants Go Marching?
