Film: Cloverfield

The descriptions of this being Blair Witch meets Godzilla were always going to be inevitable. In this respect, Cloverfield is pretty unoriginal - the terror is implied, the camera shaky and nothing is really explained.

Yet it's still a pretty good film. I was totally sucked in by the format and was as close as to forgetting that I was in a film as is possible. The acting helped, the effects more so, but it was the direction that really gave the film this special kind of believability.

Otherwise, there's not really much more to say. I'd recommended it.

Oh, and as an aside: ain't Friday mid-afternoon cinema goings great?
