(51 - 61) of 61 OFCS Rating: 77% Fresh Prev < Page   12   C+ "The techs and the promise of scares is the draw for Cloverfield. Personally, I would wait for the DVD and rent it (but only on a big screen TV)."   Reeling Reviews   Robin Clifford "Cloverfield brings chaos and terror in one of the most memorable American monster films in some time."   Movie Views   Ryan Cracknell 4/5 "A robust 80-minute burst of barely-controlled mayhem. Monster fans will love it."   FEARnet   Scott Weinberg 4/5 "a milestone in contemporary filmmaking [that] appeals directly to the maturing YouTube generation without pandering."   Filmcritic.com   Sean O'Connell "Follow(s) Joe Bob Briggs' "first rule of drive-in moviemaking""   rec.arts.movies.reviews   Shane Burridge 2/4 "could have been good if it had been made like a real movie"   sbs.is   Stefan Birgir Stefansson "Despite the mostly convincing verisimilitude of the approach, the film does succumb, especially in its last act, to some cheap manipulation, one or two bad stereotypes, and some cornball Hollywood schmaltz."   ESplatter   Steve Biodrowski 8/10 "Crudely naturalistic yet innocative and effective."   SSG Syndicate   Susan Granger 6/10 "It might be a clever new-media commentary, but it's an awfully circumspect one."   Antagony & Ecstasy   Tim Brayton 3.5/4 "I love this movie."   Film Freak Central   Walter Chaw 2.5/4 "A clunky blend of hand-held camera and faux realism. How can the creator of shows like Alias and Lost make such weak movies?"   Oscar Guy   Wesley Lovell  (51 - 61) of 61 OFCS Rating: 77% Fresh Prev < Page   12
