Movie Thoughts: Cloverfield

Tags: Movies

A different kind of movie Cloverfield is told via ’shaky cam’ style as you follow a group of people that encounter some weird events.

The Good:

  • Wonderful premise for a movie, it was very well executed.
  • No soundtrack at all, and the movie still managed to convey tension, awesome. :-)
  • The effects were very natural and just blended in.
  • Great job from the actors, the character actions didn’t feel forced or lame.
  • They kept the runtime short and didn’t pad it out and risk ruining the movie.

The Bad:

  • Shaky cam can sometimes be a bit hard on the eyes.

Overall:

What a fantastic movie, really loved it.
