Blair Witch meets Godzilla w/ a dash of Aliens part 2Review created: 05/02/08(updated 05/02/08)

Boy, how many movies are we going to keep seeing that are take offs and tweaks from other movies 10 to 20 years ago? I bet younger crowds today are not even aware of this and think these movies are fresh new ideas.
Anyway, here's Cloverfield. I have to say for a tweak job , it's great! Slow but realistic beginning gives the feel of a real experience watching a cam of a send off party for a popular fellow that accepted a job in Japan. Once you're past that, the movie 'abruptly' keeps the real feel via sudden explosions and panic.
You will feel like your watching something that really happened thru a cam corder. This idea was introduced thru 'BlairWitch'. A $35,000 production cost returned $300,000,000 !!!!!!!! That's because it was a FIRST time concept. Cloverfield spent some bucks on effects but it won't generate that kind of cash.
If you liked The Mist, BlairWitch , Godzilla movies, Aliens 2, then see this!! If you did not like those movies, don't waste your time or money on it.
My only peeve... I would have changed the ending. I would have had the cam re-open to show them in a hospital recovering and told they were going to be rich because they were the only ones with detailed footage of the event. Oh well... it ends sad.
That's all I will say because I DON'T provide spoilers! Get the movie on Ebay if you like the other movies I mentioned. It's worth it! Grade A + !
