I think this looks good. Looks like it might actually be scary even if it is in a 'perillous' way.

Show-not show is the Abrams speciallity.

So, not particularly surprised about the monster. However, I'm really awaiting this movie !

[holden]

There are some conjectural spoilers of the monster on YouTube. Still, the less you see, sometimes, the better/scarier.
E.g. the first "Alien" and even "Signs" freaked me out for this reason.

The effort to make up a back story and the viral marketing strikes me as this millenium's "Blair Witch Project". Of course, once that movie came out and totally blew, the magic was gone.
Still, i'm excited for Cloverfield to come out!

Saw it today, holy shiiiiiit. This movie may not have much of a point, but it doesn't need one, it's just one hell of a ride. I left the cinema with nerves trembling. The whole thing was nothing short of exhilerating. I really don't know what other review cliches I can say, it was just really, really, really good.

Plot-wise there are numerous moments where some of the actions and decisions of the main characters would leave me thinking "oh come ON that is bullshit", but then it would be followed by some phenomenal piece of action and that made it all better.

One to definitely see in the cinemas, don't let your first experience of it be on DVD.

It was an amazing movie! Although it is more of a thrill ride than an actual film.

A bunch of people in my audience boo'd the ending. I think they might be stupid, because I thought the ending was perfect... What are people expecting from this flick, exactly?

SCARY!

[Scott Warner]

Well I'm not stupid enough to boo but I am dumb enough not to have had a good time. I found this movie pretty annoying overall.

[EuroZeroZero]

I dont wanna go through the thread in case of spoilers. but can anyone tell me exactly how bad the shakycam is? bourne made me sick.

[gillenium]

It bothers some people more than others. It didn't bother me at all, but some kids were complaining about it on the way out. I thought it added to the movie a lot. By the way, I hated the Bourne super-shake cam, too.
