Cloverfield ~~~~

This is a monster movie.

Very, very briefly (because I'm quite busy) this is a great piece of entertainment. I've been told of the handful of internet site ties-in's to this flick and the directer, JJ Abrams (of Lost fame) seems to have constructed quite a Cloverfield World....

It follows a group of youngish, very good looking New Yorkers whose party get rather rudely interrupted by a mysterious and friggin' huge monster. Nuff said. DO NOT SEE THIS FILM IF YOU GET MOTION SICKNESS. You have been warned! It's 100% hand-held camera business so pretty way out in the sick-cam stakes.

The actors do a sterling job but the hats are particularly off to the ladies who spend a great deal of time running about with little clothing and HUMONGOUS high heels on. Well done!

It's a bit slow paced at the beginning and I actually thought I might have ended up in the wrong cinema but rest assured, once the action begins you'll lose track of all time and wonder when the hell it'll all end!!!

It's a fun film, hits all the rights spots and is well worth a second watch. Rumour has it there is already a follow up on the way and I for one am already looking forward to it.

Monsters rule..... oh yes they do!!!!!!!! Go see this now on the big screen!!! (And the music rocks, too!
