Saw this last night, and I'm still on the fence on it. I left kinda shaky, but that was because the camera work gave me motion sickness. Any scene where these kids were running made me want to close my eyes.

Another thing, the cameraman's voice got really really annoying in a hurry. I understand that this is supposed to feel like amateur video during an actual disaster, but hearing his voice scream the same thing over and over into the tinny mic made me want to punch my eardrums with a sharpened pencil.

I gotta give the movie props on a few things though. One: The no-name actors actually did very well. Two: The pacing was excellent. Three: The movie's budget was around 30 million dollars, which is incredibly impressive considering it's scope. This movie is going to turn a huge profit, and it's going to show that hollywood can make a quality film without a bloated budget and stacked cast.

You got into that divot, and you're still super sized, and you can break blocks with your face. Now get out there and step on some fucking turtles!!
