Editorial Reviews

Producer J.J. Abrams teams with writer Drew Goddard and director Matt Reeves for Cloverfield, a frenetic tale of a powerful destructive force that descends upon New York City, and the four desperate people who put their lives on the line to embark on a perilous rescue mission. Rob Hawkins (Michael Stahl-David) is a young American professional who has recently been offered a coveted new job in Japan. Eager to send his older sibling off in style, Rob's younger brother, Jason (Mike Vogel), and his girlfriend, Lily (Jessica Lucas), organize a surprise going-away party to take place the night before Rob boards his Eastern-bound flight. As the party gets underway, Rob's longtime friend and current love interest, Beth (Odette Yustman), shows up with another man as the dejected guest of honor's best-pal Hud (T.J. Miller) encourages partygoer Marlena (Lizzy Caplan) to wish him an on-camera farewell despite the fact that they barely know one another. Moments after Beth storms out following a bitter skirmish with Rob, the entire New York City skyline goes dark. Power is quickly restored, prompting partygoers to turn their attention toward the news, where they learn that a freight tanker has been overturned in New York Harbor. Racing to the rooftop in hopes of getting a better look at the situation, the group is terrified to witness a massive explosion that rains debris across midtown Manhattan, causing mass chaos and unparalleled destruction. But the worst is yet to come, because it soon becomes apparent that this is not the work of a terrorist or an act of war, but a massive creature beyond human comprehension. Now, as the military moves in and the streets of New York City become a virtual war zone, Rob, Lily, Marlena, and Hud race to rescue Beth and get out of the city before the powers that be unleash the ultimate weapon of mass destruction on one of the most populated cities on the planet.

July 23, 2008: I can understand if people disliked the movie. It is a unique experience, one I believe needed to have been seen in the theater, but it can not be repeated, like the matrix bullet time etc... Most monster/horror movies explain the reason for the invasion, the monsters&amp #8217 origin and why it&amp #8217 s attacking. But if this really happened then we really would not know squat. A monster attacks and you are telling me that the government or some eccentric scientist is going to know what it is and why it is attacking in the same night it appears? Not likely. The movie by itself was a treat and a fun experience, however, it would be possible and to come out with a sequel to begin to expound on the plot but it would be necessary. I personally would love to see a sequel but I don&amp #8217 t want JJ Abrams and co. to go over board as some do with sequel in trying to reproduce or reinvent what they accomplished. The main point wasn't so much plot but an experience that really couldn't be done with any other plot. The fact that JJ Abrams and co. that the tape was being recorded over the protaganists recorded date with his girl and going back and forth between the two was a creative way to break up the story and allow some investment in the protaganist and the women he is trying to save. I hope this helps.
