Film Preview: Cloverfield
"Cloverfield" is generating all kinds of buzz - you might recognize the trailer by its inclusion of a headless Statue of Liberty. ComingSoon.net summarizes the plot as follows: "Five young New Yorkers throw their friend a going-away party the night that a monster the size of a skyscraper descends upon the city. Told from the point of view of their video camera, the film is a document of their attempt to survive the most surreal, horrifying event of their lives."
Sounds like Godzilla, right? I’m not sure if I want to see this one. Not because I’m too scared but because I’ve kind of had my fill with giant monsters descending on New York City. I might change my mind but probably not. Here are some details:
Release Date: January 18, 2008
Studio: Paramount Pictures
Director: Matt Reeves
Screenwriter: Drew Goddard
Starring: Michael Stahl-David, Mike Vogel, Odette Yustman, Lizzy Caplan, Jessica Lucas, T.J. Miller

Film Review: "Cloverfield"

[…] "Cloverfield" is this year’s first "big movie" but I’ll admit to not being immediately interested. Maybe I was still feeling lazy from the holidays but I just wasn’t very motivated. Still, all the buzz intrigued me and I started paying more attention to the trailers and, finally, built up enough excitement to go to the first showing today. I’m glad I went. […]
