It’s 4pm and now I’m at home, guess what? I have just came back from watching Cloverfield in cinema.

It has been my most anticipating movie for 2008, but it has just became my first worst movie for the beginning of 2008. Why? I believe you can find a lot of reasons of why this movie will gonna suck from google or any other websites. Because a lot of people who have watched it will scold it big time, and I seriously mean it.

Don’t get me wrong, but I’ll give my two cents here.

Director J. J. Abrams able to produce this movie which made me feel that I was indeed in the Cloverfield movie ‘itself’, as all of the actions is taking place. The effect while watching this movie was like I was ‘in there’ myself, rushing through the city, feeling ‘the arrival’ of the monster, the fighting back of armies and soldiers ‘in front’ of you, the look and horror when the monster ate ‘you’. Because the whole movie was made with the recording from the Video Camcorder, which supposedly meant for recording of the farewell party. So the whole time we were watching a movie which is from the recording of a video camcorder. Everything was alright until the movie ended, just like that.

First of all, it is a fact that Cloverfield is a monster movie(stated by director J. J. Abrams himself). So movie goers like me will definately wants to know…

1. What kind of monster it will gonna be?
2. What does this monster looks like?
3. Where did this monster come from?
4. How did it manage to arrive here?
5. Will this monster be captured?
6. Can it be killed? if yes, How will it be killed?
7. How will the movie end?
8.
9.

All these questions and many more need to be answered. It’s a monster movie and people will definately wants actions…. lotsa lotsa actions, and answers too. Not a movie which was made 100% from a recording video camcorder without a simple answer given. When the movie ended, I was totally speechless…..

1. What kind of monster it will gonna be? I don’t know (you should ask J.J. Abrams)
2. What does this monster looks like? I don’t know (the monster were not shown clearly)
3. Where did this monster come from? I don’t know (you should ask J.J. Abrams)
4. How did it manage to arrive here? I don’t know (swim maybe)
5. Will this monster be captured? I don’t know, the movie never show it till the end
6. Can it be killed? if yes, How will it be killed? I don’t know I don’t know I don’t know
7. How will the movie end? I LOVE YOU, I LOVE YOU too … the end

So, are you satisfied with my ‘2 cents’ review of Cloverfield movie? I know I’m not because the movie was just barely over an hour!!!
