Cloverfield is one of the most exciting and frightening sci-fi horrors of the last decade. A wobbly-rollercoaster ride that weaves its rickety way through darkened subways and exploding skyscrapers to avoid the powerful, terrifying and destructive force that has New York City under attack. Matt Reeves' monster-horror combines suspense, terror and explosions within its sudden, claustrophobic, and tension-filled scenes of desperate New Yorkers struggling to stay alive.
Rob's (Michael Stahl-David) impending trip to Tokyo is put on hold when, during his going away party, a devastating and frightening presence starts to destroy the city. As the explosions, screams and devastation increase, Rob, his brother Jason (Mike Vogel) and their group of friends face the most difficult decision of their lives. As Rob's long-term friend and current love interest Beth (Odette Yustman) is trapped alone in her apartment on the other side of the city, do they attempt to save themselves and flee the city to safety or head further in to the ruin and save Beth?
Cloverfield is a fantastically wrought film, where The Blair Witch Project style of using a handheld home video camera throughout adds tension and captures the chilling realism of the situation in which the city, and group, have found themselves in. With stylistic flourishes and inventive shocks, director Matt Reeves and visionary producer J. J. Abrams (Lost), have delivered on their `documentary-style' monster attack concept and produced an enjoyable, exhilarating and downright scary monster movie.

Great flim, if your watching it for the 2nd time the first 20 mins are boring but the special effects are clever and the storey ticks along nicely.
People have moaned about the camera work but thats what makes it original and the fact its told from one perspective and thats all you see adds to the mystery and suspense
Overall great flim and somehting you probably wont have seen before
I'm not really a fan of "The Blair Witch Project" style of movie making but this film really worked. The camera angles and use of a regular hand-held video camera helped to create the real-life setting which in turn created the sheer horror of what was happening on-screen and made it seem like reality. Horror-type films (such as Scream and I Know What You Did Last Summer) don't usually effect me because you can tell it's staged, but watching this I started wondering, "God, what if this happened, and it COULD happen because it looks so real being shot from the actors point of view", and so on. The fact that it's so simple makes it one of the best films and most watchable.
BRAVO!!!!
firstly, anyone who throws up by watchin a movie shot like a home video is over reacting. its like watching 'youve been framed' and suffering from migraines and sickness cuz the dude with the camera is shaking with laughter.! get over it!........................... back to the film, i thought this film was the most intense film ive seen, this basically down to the camera work, the 'shaky camera' is what makes the film - if it was done like a normal movie - it would be called godzilla 2. buy this movie
