Negative Positive
Title: Cloverfield manages to be awesome and terrible at the same time.
Review: This movie has 3 major problems:1 - It takes entirely too long for the monster thing to attack, up to that point it's a How To guide for anyone who wants to write a pathetically boring Relationship struggle movie.2 - Once the truly interesting part of the film begins, it all ends far to quickly. And Even though the Idea of keeping the Monster largely off camera is pretty compelling, a lot of the shaking camera stuff failed to enthrall me as much as give me a migraine.3 - I guess I'm not allowed to share spoilers, so let me just say, the plot (besides the "Giant Monster in Manhattan" bit) is just awful and I'll leave it at that.However, visuals, audio, and the rest were overall entertaining. This is not a bad movie, but check your brain at the door.
