I finally got around to watching Cloverfield a few weeks ago. Once was more than enough.

i rented it from redbox for a buck and watched about ten minutes of it and shut it off. blair witch, yeah that's the first thing i thought of when the movie started.
also rented "there will be blood" on the same night and thought it was pretty good. not a sci-fi movie, but about oil being discovered in south texas at the turn of the centruy.

Damn....I feel like I'm $8 richer.

Man it sounds like this flick is a real stinker.

I went to see it with my oldest son. We loved it. It's a bit different. Very well thought out. Very well put together, for it's intended purpose. Each to his own, I guess.

The wife and I went to see Bucket List.
Great movie!!!

I was smart enough not to pay to go see Blair Witch. I did see a little of it when it came on TV. Cloverfield and Blair Witch may have had the same type of filming, but Cloverfield at least spent some money on special effects. Blair Witch was just a couple of kids shooting out in the woods. Had Cloverfield been done with more traditional filming, it might not have been all that bad. As is - it sucked.

Gary....I heard about how awful this movie was all the shaking of the camera. Two women in my office said that they had to leave because of feeling too nauseous to watch any longer. Me I don't care for this type of movie and I don't care for movies that brutalize women. Where in the world does this come off as entertainment? Just my two cents worth.

My daughter talked me into going to see Cloverfield last night. I like sci-fi, so I figured - what the hell - let me check out the reviews - they're okay....alright, I'll go see it. What a waste of money and time. The entire film was shot with a hand-held camera. The camera shake was horrific. The camera only held still three times during the entire movie; first, for about four seconds when the operator fell down, second for about seven seconds when the operator set it down to...
