Monster Mash


Just been to see Cloverfield and I can't really decide...it might be brilliant, it might just be annoying. Two things are for sure though: 1/ It is fucking intense. 2/ It really does get an awful lot of destruction in there.
In that sense alone it effortlessly pisses all over Spielberg's War Of The Worlds.

I liked it - the destruction was indeed supa-destructive - wish the damn sub-plot was not so crap - the faux-mini-cam thing got a tad annoying at times - but as monster movies go - good one !

Not seen it yet - waiting for my mate to get a decent copy - I never actually pay to see films these days.

Did get to see 'AVP Requiem' though and it's pretty shit. Didn't care too much for the last one, but this makes it look like Citizen fucking Kane. First half has too much tedious backstory about bellend small-town stereotypes. All actions scenes are so dark you can barely make out what's going on. The last half is quite fun for the relentless carnage but only, I think, if your'e stoned. There is a great gross-out scene with a pregnant woman, but I won't say any more...
